Please, Please vote! in the City Council Runoffs

DavidRichard — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 21:52:53 +0000

Austin City Council Elections are decided by less than 10% of the voters. This is really a scary fact. That over 90% of the registered voters will let so few of us decide their city taxes, their school taxes, the direction of the police, the administration of roads and utilities is appalling really. Here is a perfect example of the consequences of not voting. If Laura Morrison (for point of sale) manages to defeat Cid Galindo (against point of sale) in the election going on RIGHT NOW, then it is very likely that an ordinance requiring a permit to sell any home in Austin will be implemented. This will initially be a small new tax, say $1,500 for the average Austin home. And yes, I mean tax. All assesments, fees, permits, license, etc. mandated by any government is a tax. Hence, Boston TEA party! But like all taxes it will be reviewed every year and undoubtedly raised. When is the last time any of us heard of a tax going down? If the Federal Government, believes $600 per taxpayer will stimulate the economy, what do you think the result of this new tax will be? What type of wasteful beauracy will need to be created to administer this tax? What effect will this have on the affordability of homes in Austin? Will this encourage buyers to look just outside of the City Limits of Austin when choosing a home?

All these questions can be set aside simply by using the existing tax systems to encourage and implement energy conservation. This model, imported from California, is not well though out and California should not be a model for Texas. Green is good. Conservation is now a necessity. We are the stewards of our planet. I will support City tax dollars going toward conservation. Let us come together to set measurable goals and pull our immence local brain power to find the very best solution to this problem.

But, whether you agree with me or not, please VOTE.

Blog Probes Real Estate Models

www.REALonomics.net is a blog that is asking serious questions about where the real estate industry is going. More specifically, REALonomics poses challenges to the broker/owners to adopt models that will allow their organizations to become more transparent.

REALonomics.net advocates that the industry open up the property information portals to consumers and upgrade its approach to how it is interacting with the consumer by implementing more social networking such as www.CityBlogUSA.com, a community blogging network for every city in the USA.

True Pride of Ownership!

selectteam1278 — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 21:20:05 +0000

This home is out of this world. The owners have taken so much pride and care in the home. Located just west of I-35 in south Austin. The great features of this home are that it backs to a greenbelt and has a path down to Slaughter Creek. This creek offers fishing and just a great way to relax. You will find Brazilian hardwood floors inside with just about every upgrade you can imagine. The back yard offers a huge multi-level deck shaded by huge oaks. If you would like to know more about this home, let me know.

How is the Austin Real Estate Market Doing?

selectteam1278 — Tue, 13 Nov 2007 21:07:37 +0000

The Austin real estate market is strong. I have been in the real estate industry for quite some time now and believe the national media has not done Austin justice. Although the lending scare sent some buyers into hiding, the market is still strong. If you would like more information on the market, give me a call or post on this blog.
