January 23, 2010

The #2 and #3 most visited pages here at My Denton County Real Estate are the articles that have made me the authoritative REALTOR in North Texas for USDA Rural Development Loans and the Texas Veterans Land Board. Driven by Google searches as seen here and here I felt the need to reassure visitors in 2010 interested in either of these loan programs the information written here is still valid and up-to-date.

First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit Extended for Military Personnel

October 17, 2009
Thumbnail image for First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit Extended for Military Personnel

It is expected that about 350,000 military personnel and an unknown number of federal employees may be affected once this is passed into law. This is one I feel everyone can get behind — There seems to be a lot of talk from political pundits, the news media, and even a lot of REALTORS® that believe the tax credit is just “giving money away” or “creating debt for our children and grandchildren.” I am not sure any of them realize that in order for our economy to have gotten any better money needed to be moving and changing hands.

Can you help me buy or sell real estate in…?

October 1, 2009
Thumbnail image for Can you help me buy or sell real estate in…?

This is a question I get far to often, and I should have addressed here publicly long ago. I make no bones about it ((To state a fact in a way that allows no doubt. To have no objection to)) I concentrate on the buying and selling real estate in Denton County, concentrating on Highland Village, Lewisville, Corinth, Little Elm, and all points in between within Denton County. I even work on the fringes of Grapevine and Saginaw which are in Tarrant County Texas. I believe this best allows me to provide superior service to those I represent.

But, far to often I get emails or phone calls from those who are in need of assistance with some of the loan programs, or services I discuss here. So this is announcement saying Yes I can help you…

* Buy real estate in Collin County
* Sell your home in Plano, Texas
* Buy a property in Fort Worth, Texas
* List your home in Tarrant County
* Buy vacant land anywhere in the state of Texas
* Real Estate services all over the country

Texas Veterans Land Board – Strong in Service, Support, and Cooperation

April 30, 2009

The following is a question that was posted by John on Buying a Home with the Texas Veterans Land Board Program (TVLB) and by the time I was done writing, I felt it was too long for a response to a comment, and deserved the attention of it’s own article.

Q As a disabled veteran, How do you buy forfeited or foreclosed land? How does it work if you missed the April and October sales for Texas land commission. I have not gotten straight answers from civilian auction groups that seem keep certain people out their circle to purchase at auctions etc..I have not been able to get straight information in how it all works. Since your a subject matter expert, can you help?

Texas Veterans Land Board (VLB) Forfeited Land Sale April 28, 2009

Land Auction Gavel

Being a Realtor registered by the Texas VLB to assist veterans with using the benefits offered to them for land and housing loans, provides me with some email fodder than can be passed along to my readers here at My Denton County Real Estate.

Since I know over 18% of the visitors here so far in 2009 have checked out Buying a Home with the Texas Veterans Land Board Program. Also with 79.8% of my website traffic comes from search engines, I am suspecting this information may be found useful to that group who are looking for programs to help Texas Vets buy a home or land.

$8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit

February 24, 2009
Thumbnail image for $8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit

Now it is my tun to break down the $8000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit. I must admit, when the bill was being negotiated in the Senate, before moving forward to the House of Representatives I was following it very close, in attempt to report the results in a timely manner. But as we know now, that was a lost cause because it kept changing hourly it seemed. But now we have a signed bill, and albeit it was very trimmed down from what the Senate, National Association of REALTORS®, and the National Association of Home Builders wanted as was outlined in Fix Housing First Act article I posted, notably which would have included a $15,000 tax credit for everyone buying a home.
