Cosmopolitan Houston Condos

The Cosmopolitan Condominiums sit on Post Oak Boulevard in the Uptown neighborhood of Houston, Texas. Uptown Houston is home to the Galleria which is the gateway to Houston's high fashion industry. Stores in the Galleria include Saks Fifths Avenue, Neiman Marcus, and Hermes of Paris, and demonstrate perfectly why Post Oak Boulevard is Known as Houston's version of "Rodeo Drive". If plenty of shopping options and a multitude of restaurants and bars within walking distance is your ideal place to call home, then you will likely love living in the Cosmopolitan Houston condos. Which is one of the newest Randall Davis buildings to be constructed in the Houston metro area.

Houston Home Search

I just created a video of the new Houston home search application my broker had developed by diverse solutions. I decided to make a video giving a little bit of information on how to use it and what all it is capable of doing because of how much more robust its offerings are in comparison to everything else out on the market. This new Houston home search application allows the user to search homes by time on the market, bank owned foreclosures, pre-foreclosures, time on the market, price drops and walk score (Walk score is a rating on how close all your everyday shops and hang outs are to the property in question) along with all the other normal search choices you would have on other Houston home search applications. I almost forgot there is even a feature where you can view solds if you register. Check out the video below to see soe of the things it can do.

Houston Home Buyer Seminar This Saturday March 21st In The Galleria

A couple of months ago another agent in my office and the loan officer that we both frequently refer clients to got talking about how much bad information was floating out there. During our discussion we came to a consensus that the large fall off in sales even in the most stable parts of the Houston housing market were well founded when you look at the terrifyingly negative news on the national housing market. We also noted that most people in the industry that speak out to the public try to paint a picture where Houston completely escapes the troubles seen in many other markets. Since the reality for the Houston area falls in between these two extremes we decided to put together a monthly home buyer seminar. This month's seminar will be held this Saturday at 9am-11am in the galleria. Below is my little plug for the seminar. I would love to see people who follow this blog to attend.
