So, what does this mean?

FEWER homes sold in 2008 First Quarter versus the same period last year, they have shorter Days On Market, AND they are selling for MORE MONEY per square foot.

This is an indicator that the most UPDATED HOMES, which sell for more per square foot, are the homes that are SELLING right now. Those homes lacking in updates, highly desirable locations, or amenities are languishing on the market.

If SELLERS are thinking of selling in the near future, do as much as possible to update your colors, flooring, and fixtures Buyers want move-in ready. If you are thinking of updating, call or email me for a list of the best guys for the jobs. I keep up with the quality of work they do for other clients and I'm happy to consult or share with you.

Del Webb is bringing their lifestyle and premier active adult living to Houston.... Del Webb

Houston. A city rich in history, deep in culture. Proud of its roots, yet modest and inviting to all. It's a place that nearly 4.5 million people call home. It's a town that offers the culture, museums, theaters and downtown life of a big city. In the same breath, it is but a short distance to either the quiet, peaceful country with winding creeks and soft prairie or the call of the ocean along the shores of Galveston Bay.

Del Webb in Houston is taking shape right now just beyond Sugar Land on US 59 and Thompson's Road. Just down the street from the charming town of Richmond where diners, boutiques and shops are reminiscent of southern history and just blocks away from any convenience you may need. With every detail under careful consideration, scheduled grand opening is in Spring of 2009.

Del Webb promises to bring you a community like none other in Houston. It will be a place where amenities and lifestyle, the indoors and the outdoors, daytime and evening all come together in a way that creates community. A community where you can uncover new interests, explore curiosities, and discover unknown talents. A place where new friends are found and best friends are kept.

Del Webb, famous for lifestyle, promises just that. It is a lifestyle that is carefully coordinated and created for you to participate in as you choose. Whether a relaxing swim in the resort pool, a strict routine in the state of the art fitness center, a week long trip with dear friends or simply evening get togethers to enjoy common interests- it's up to you.

We encourage you to join our VIP list! By providing the information below, you will quickly receive our most current fact sheet as well as any forth coming information.

We look forward to welcoming you.
