Brian Martin: Northwest Austin Real Estate

NORTHWEST AUSTIN REAL ESTATE is bucking the national trend right now. A historically slow time in other parts of the country gives us a lot of national news that makes buyers and sellers weary of doing anything real estate related. Well, in Austin, Sellers are still selling and buyers are still buying. This brought up an idea for a blog post. We focus so much on how to sell your house or how to get the best price selling your house but, what happens when your prospective house is under contract?? Time to move...
I personally have a good amount of moving experience. It is definitly a task. I often get asked for recommendations when it comes to movers but recently was asked by the owners of one of my listings for any resources for boxes. I understand this question all too well. Of course he wasn't asking where the boxes are, anyone can spend a ton of money buying boxes from uhaul or a "box place". He wanted to know how to save some money and still safely pack their belongings. I started by telling him that I had a personal stash of boxes, wardrobe boxes, moving blankets and even a furniture dolly in my attic. I offered these to him to borrow and he gladly accepted. Later in the day, he stopped by and I helped him load the supplies in his car. There are some good resources if you dont know someone with their own stash.
