Well....your missing the boat on our amazing real estate market
You want to know one of the best investments going right now? Real estate in DFW. I sold a house to a sweet couple 1.5 years ago. We got them into the house for $330k. They have to sell their house today. I met with them to discuss market value. We can put that house on the market for $450 and probably sell in less than two weeks. That's quite an amazing return don't you think? Not only is it a great time to buy with the amazing interest rates, your ability to sell for a higher price and a faster timeframe is also quite strong. If you are looking at either buying or buying/selling, then you need to call me today. Not tomorrow! This real estate market is not going to last forever. Call me and I'll take good care of you! 214-837-0010

Dollar volume of home sales going back to 2007
Below is my latest update to the NETREIS Dollar Volume chart. As you can see, the dollar volume of single family home sales in the North Texas MLS system fell to $1.873 billion this month. Declines in dollar volume are certainly expected in September as many people try to move BEFORE school starts each fall. However, the decline in this year was much smaller, and the dollar volume of activity high was an all-time best for September at 14% higher than September 2013 (6% higher transaction volume, 8% higher average sale price). Even more impressive, September 2014 dollar volume was 48% higher than September 2012, which had itself set the record for all-time best September just 2 years ago.

Thieves use Zillow to con unsuspecting buyers and renters, hear about this need to know info
About four months ago, I got a call from a renter who was asking when he could move into a house that I had listed and sold in Plano Texas. I didn't quite understand what he was asking as I had sold the house and it was never for rent. He had responded to an online Zillow add that showed my listing. Some con-man had copied my listings information and said the house was for rent. The prospective tenant was told to mail the $1200 deposit to an out of town landlord. Needless to say, the out of town landlord was a hoax and the guy on the phone had lost $1200. Anyone can get a Zillow account and start posting anything they want on Zillow. This is also true of many many other websites including Trulia, Craigslist etc. If you really want to be protected when you need a home, you need to be calling a Realtor.
