Hello Readers,
Sure it's fall and the weather is changing...so is your real estate market!
Does your house have the right curb appeal for the season?
No matter what the season, curb appeal plays a huge part in getting homes sold. Exterior staging often gets overlooked, especially when there is usually so much to do on the inside. Fall is a great time to complete certain activities, especially here in Texas.
Perhaps a small tree can be planted to hide a negative or unsightly view, or conversely, planted to frame or accentuate a great view. Also, fall is the time to be planting bulbs for spring flowering. Hopefully your home sells before then, but its not uncommon to plan ahead for a new listing that you will reveal in the spring.
Also, fall may be the time to put a garden to bed, or other small landscaping projects. (trim trees, fresh mulch, add some seasonal plants, etc...)
The fact of the matter is winter, spring, summer, or fall making a great first impression is key to selling your home in this market!
Looking for some curb appeal tips for your home? Please feel free to contact us!

Hello Everyone!
I want to first off thank everyone for their participation with the 2009 Food Drive sponsored by Keller Williams Realty! Thank you! It definitely would not have been a success without you!
Per the numbers, we are sitting at a little over 15,276 pounds and counting to the Austin area Food Bank! As soon as I get a final count, I will get that out to you all!
I look forward to your feedback on this event and for another exciting event next year plus please let me know if there is anything else that I may be of assistance for now.
Thanks and have a great day!
