Wichita Falls Two Biggest Weekends Approaching

We are coming up on the two biggest weekends for Wichita Falls for the year. This coming weekend is the Texas Ranch RoundUp and next weekend is the Hotter'N Hell Hundred Race! If you have never experienced either of these events I strongly encourage you to do so. Be sure to visit these sites for more information.

Market Pulse

Typically, the residential real estate markets are paused a bit between August 1 and the latter part of the month. We have continued to see good activity in the marketplace, however, you can definitely feel that the market has slowed a bit with school about to start again. Nevertheless, we are aggressively serving our customers and are still on track for a record year in our office.

Be sure to stay tuned to the market at TheFallsHomeFinder.com and WichitaFallsHomeValues.com.

Its time to get your tickets for the 30th Annual Texas Ranch Roundup here in Wichita Falls, TX!!!

The Original Texas Ranch Roundup began in 1981 and is held annually every August in Wichita Falls. To be eligbile to participate in the TRR, a ranch must be selected by the Roundup Committee with consideration given to working ranch status, length of ownership or management and historical significance. Contestants and alternates must be full time employees of their ranches, and they must have been employed a minimum of six months. They ride their own horse or one belonging to the ranch. What makes the Texas Ranch Roundup unique is that it incorporates the entire ranch family with a cookin' contest as well as a festival including photography, painting & drawing, furniture, crafts and western handiwork. Winners of these events earn points that, combined with their points in the rodeo, make up the Ranch Roundup winner.
