Good Monday morning to you!

Like I said last week, we are looking to add homes with pools to our inventory. If you or anyone you may know is looking to sell their home this summer (pool or no pool) please let us know. With 30 year fixed rate mortgages under 5%, this summer should be a great market!

I have also said that this is the best inventory of homes we've ever had-and the truth endures. See http://www.texomahomesource.com/Properties for every home we have available at this time.

Good Monday morning to you!

The heat has arrived. We broke the 100 degree mark last week, and it looks like its here to stay. If you or someone you know is looking to sell their home that has a pool, please let me know . We have had quite a few people looking for homes with pools, and the market inventory is quite low. See www.TexomaHomeValue.com where I can give you an idea of what your home may bring at this time.

Myth Buster:

Myth: Seller Financing is no longer allowed in Texas

Fact: Seller financing is still allowed in virtually all real estate transactions.

However, as of May 31, 2010, if a seller is financing a one-to-four-family residential transaction other than his primary homestead or a sale to a family member, he must be licensed as a residential mortgage loan originator (RMLO). In other words, transactions involving investment property, second homes, and vacation homes require licensure as a RMLO.

Tax Free Weekend For Energy Star Appliances

Tax Free Weekend For Energy Star Appliances

Odessa, TX - Thanks to a government program, this weekend is a great time to save some green, while going green, when purchasing that new appliance for your home.

For anyone interested in saving hundreds on their energy bills and purchasing those energy saving appliances, this weekend is the time to buy, but there are some stipulations shoppers should be aware of.

"Yes, it's busier than normal," said David Brown, owner of Southwest TV and Appliance in South Odessa.

Thanks to the third annual Texas Energy Star Sales Tax Holiday, Southwest TV and Appliance has seen a spike in business.

"It's a win-win for everyone, you save on your utility bills and you also save on your taxes for this weekend," Brown said.

Their biggest seller this weekend, Energy Star refrigerators, but that isn't the only item available tax-free.

"It will be refrigerators with the Energy Star logo under $2,000, Energy Star dish washers, and Energy Star washers, ceiling fans, air conditioners under $6,000 and dehumidifiers."

According to the Energy Star website, these appliances can have up to 75 percent in energy savings when compared to standard models.

Compared to the federal incentive that lasted only seven hours, this deal lasts for three days.

"This is a great time for anyone who missed the federal program."

Consumers can purchase these products on-line, in person or through a catalog.

"Utilities never go away, they're always going to go up and if you can save some money and save utilities and water, that's a great thing," said Brown.

Incandescent and Fluorescent light bulbs are also included.

Southwest TV and Appliance also offers free delivery and removal of any old appliances when you purchase from them.

The tax-free holiday for energy-efficient appliances did begin early this morning, and will last through Memorial Day Monday.
