The real estate market in the Dallas/Fort Worth Texas area has taken a hit.
On a positive Note! DFW real estate market compared to most parts of the US is holding steady.
Steady is Good in these rough,tight, and tough economic times.
Renting? Why? Buy a home! Take advantage of Home Ownership! Start house hunting if you have a down payment saved of 3-3.5% you are in a great market to start house hunting. Rates are great and sellers are motivated.
Loan preapproval is a must! Both the buyers and sellers benefit from Buyer loan preapproval.
Imagine buying a house like playing cards!
If you are a Buyers and you have been preapproved for a loan, you can close quickly, you have saved your down payment, you are holding a strong hand
If you are a seller. Have your property clean inside and out. Great Curb appeal, Update items that many first time home buyers look for flooring,bathrooms,kitchen,fixtures. Clutter free.
Selling your home during the holiday's? Keep Holiday Decor simple.
Happy Holidays to ALL who are reading this!!!
May God Bless You and Your family!
Free is Good!

It is my understanding that through our own property! It is easy to find the history of your land and mineral rights if you have the time.
Go to the Denton County Clerk's office and in less than two hours we knew our history-who owned our property and when.
We wanted to see in writing what our mineral rights were, and not take anyone's word for what we owned. The county's land records go back to the 1850's and are also accessible on the Internet.
At the county clerk's office there are helpful research ladies and the copies are 25 cents per page. If you work from your home the copies are $1.00 per page.
The web site is www.co.denton.tx.us/dept/main.asp?Dept=17.
Look in the left hand margin and click on "real property records search". Then click on the free search at the top of the page.
You are searching for warranty deeds, and when you find the one that pertains to your land, you can purchase a copy with your credit card and print it out.
They will give you several options when purchasing, I just did pay-per access user option.
In our personal search We did not go back any further than the Catholic Church ownership because they owned so much land it would have taken a lot more time researching.
So in our personal situation we are not 100% sure that the owners before the church did not retain any mineral rights.
After you have most of your information it will save time and money if you chose to consult a real estate attorney " Oil and Gas" and find out positively what you own!

I just received an email from my cousin who is inWARNING
corporate
internet security for SWB. If you get an email that says
"POSTCARD FROM
HALLMARK" or CARD FROM A FRIEND do not open it. It is
a viscious new virus
that knocks out the core of your hard drive. I have checked
with snopes and
it is real. So far there is no cure according to Norton and
