  Pearland Great news for those considering entering into the Pearland housing market!  On February 19, 2010, Forbes Magazine announced that Houston is one of best places in the nation to buy real estate because of its stable industries.  Francesca Levy writes that Houston's energy sector has "kept jobs flowing into Texas oil town Houston."  Furthermore, Levy notes that the good job market in Houston means that the housing outlook will stay strong.  "Houston home prices are expected to rise 1.2% by next year; it's one of only four of the markets we ranked where prices won't continue to slide, according to Moody's Economy.com." So what does this mean for the Pearland housing market?  Essentially, it means that, like most of the suburban areas of Houston, will continue to flourish. In the...

Maggie McFarland's Top Ten List of Getting Your Pearland Homes for Sell As buyers approach your property the first time, impressions are formed quickly. An important factor in preparing your Pearland Homes for sell  is to declutter your home! When going through your home remember Less IS more! You want to make room for the potential buyers of your home to see each room. With lots of personal items, the buyer could feel like they are a guest in your home.  When this happens they cannot feel like it could be their home. Your shot glasses from around the world collection may be special to you (I have one too) but it can distract potential buyer from your house! The same goes for excess toys. You want to convey a clean and neutral space for potential buyers to envision themselves in.  Clean...
