In Riverside, it is not necessary that you know why this family needs help --> or even WHO this family is. Pretty much, when word gets out that there is a family in need, this community shows up in full force to spread some love. Thank you for that! See you Saturday. SaturdayOctober 24, 201411 AM to 4 PMFaith Baptist Church1301 FM 405 in Riverside *For GPS use Huntsville, TX 77320  Faith Baptist Church Fish Fry Fundraiser

 Buyer Advice: You Can Still Make A Backup Offer  I am sure that it does NOT come as a surprise to you that this gorgeous home located at 69 Murphy Farm Road is pending.  If it does surprise you --> it shouldn't. I had an agent call me to tell me that they had told their buyers that they needed to make it a priority to see this one before someone else snatched it up. Unfortunately, more times than not, people just think we are being pushy. NOT! We have the data at our fingertips. It is not hard to figure out average days on market for properties.  AND MOST IMPORTANT -- if you love it, what on earth makes you think you are the only one?! (Just sayin'!) So, buyers -- if you misssed out, you can still make a backup offer!  Things happen! Besides having the financing fall though, here are a...

 Thomas Lake Road 4th of July EVENTS UPDATE! Several of the annual 4th of July events  held by the Thomas Lake Road Community Association have been cancelled for 2015 due to recent flooding. Charlene Crocker, President of the TLRCA, posted on the association's Facebook page that due to the road conditions, the golf cart parade has been cancelled. She also announced that the boat parade has also been cancelled due to water conditions. We live on the river and it is moving quickly and full of debris. Even if it were not still high, for safety reasons alone, you would not want to put your boat in the river right now. Now for the GOOD NEWS....  THE ICE CREAM SOCIAL IS STILL ON  ☺  Bring your family and friends to the Thomas Lake Road Volunteer Fire Department on Saturday at 3 PM for an old ...
