What can you say about people who throw a party for people that helped them?

Michelle and Wendell, and their friends, put it all together-community, neighbors, family, fun, food, music, sun-and gratitude-for the volunteers that helped them all out during the flood-the video says it all and it looks like home to me! 

 

 

Michelle, Wendell and their daughter are enjoying near-normal lives as they work on their home:

 

 

 

And of course, there are more great vidoes and pics right here from the party!

Hey Texas Realtors!

We will see you in San Antonio and we can help you corral some buyers, TOO!

Obeo, a leading provider of full-service residential real estate online marketing products in North America, will be a vendor at the Texas REALTORS® Convention and Trade Expo September 9-11 at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas.

The convention kicks off with the Trade Expo, where attendees can see the best in real estate products and services to help build their business. There will also be plenty of educational and networking opportunities, with seminars on topics ranging from sales to management.

As a company that provides innovative products to the REALTOR® community, Obeo will attend the conference and have a booth in the Trade Expo. With recent offerings such as SpaceDesigner and StyleDesigner, which allows buyers to virtually remodel a home to reflect their style as well as their brand preferences, Obeo is paving the way in customizing the world of real estate for its consumers and giving them psychological ownership.

"The two function much differently, but trade on the same principle of psychological ownership," said Glade Jones, Obeo president and CEO. "SpaceDesigner allows visitors to virtually 'live' in a home by clicking and dragging furniture on the home's floor plan. StyleDesigner allows a consumer to virtually repaint, add new floor coverings and remodel the kitchen or anything else they can think of. Both of these tools are great ways to begin stimulating a consumer's creativity."

Other conference highlights include an inspirational breakfast, networking coffee and a speech from keynote speaker, Texan and former White House Senior Adviser Karl Rove on how to apply lessons from real-world politics to the world of business.

...'nuff said.

Saddle up and SELL!
