Is that one of those butt vibration machines by the door??????

Does anyone know where I can get current and historical MLS inventory #'s by neighborhood/zip/city? Off the top of my head it looks like inventory in my neighborhood is zooming higher, but I'd like to know for sure and check it against prior years and seasonality. I've looked around on HAR but couldn't find a way to report it other than doing searches and manually adding the #'s up (which is not the most productive use of my time and does not get me historical #'s.) Thanks

PM me. I'll see if I can help you.

Heck, if I had hamburger insurance, a burger may only cost me $2.00 at Dry Creek.

Get term, cash value is a rip-off.

Great thread, and a great example of why I heart HAIF.

I've always been fascinated by Shadyside.

how do they get the cars on the roof like that?

leverage. and magic.

From what I've heard, it needs to be a cash sale. The banks don't want to finance it. There are several interested buyers, but no one can get the loans.

There is probably something to that. I wouldn't loan money on it, and I'm not as conservative as my bank!

It's back with a fresh MLS number and listing agent!

one of my coworkers just put some tiles in her master bath.

That tile is nice, but there are way too many clashing styles in there for me.

I don't know if anyone will still do the aluminum "shingles". We did a house a couple years ago with a 40 year old aluminum "shingle" roof. Now THAT is long lasting as far as roofs go. Cottonmather is right though, they are a pain sometimes.

As far as sheetmetal, I haven't priced one in Houston but I did one in MS and it was substantially higher than an asphalt roof. I think it will last, but I'm on the fence as to whether or not it's "worth it".

This gets brought up fairly frequently. http://www.houstonarchitecture.info/haif/i....php?act=Search

Sheets, you can do a pseudo blend of both ideas, which is more the trend now. I just redid our master with light, polished granite tile on the floor, shower and 1/2 way up the bathroom walls. Yet I went with the 20's retro hardware in brushed nickel (warming towel bar included), light vanilla walls with black and white architectural prints framed in gold,marble white cabinets and trim, a claw foot tub (OMG am I in love with that tub!), and a chrystal Chandelier over the tub. It has a timeless feel. I hate to say it, because I put it in my kitchen last year, the rustic slate look is kinda on the way out. Sleek and classic is taking hold.

It's a small bathroom, but doing it really well may make up for the desire for these bathing caverns these days. We just didn't need the space to salsa in the bathroom, so we didn't expand it.

You actually can find some really great deals on granite tile these days. Just try to go for 16x16.

I like the idea. I gradumatated from there and would have liked to do all 4 years there instead of 2 at san joke.

Why use cement if you aren't going to tile it? If you are going to tile it, why worry about taping and floating?

Interceramic on Richmond has some really big glass tiles that I think would look awesome. They are 12x24 I believe. Another thing I saw in magazine... Someone picked out a cool wall paper with a retro graphic and put it up, then clear glass over it as a backsplash.

Woo Hoo! I worked at baybrook from '97-'01!!!!!1

This one is sold!

I smell it in 77035. Smells like fresh mulch.

flipper

I love it. I'm jealous of all the height changes.

I like the little detail in the sheetrock near the ceiling.

If had to point out one thing I'm not crazy about... I don't love when the countertop material continues up the backsplash, and then another, different backsplash is put on top of that.

I appreciate all the hard work you've put in here though!

Moar pics!

I took some pics here last week:

I'm about fed up with HAR/TEMPO. It doesn't work right in Google Chrome or Safari , I don't want to use IE and now Firefox is telling me it looks like the members section is trying to redirect me to a fake site.

Any other agents having problems? What browser are you using?

This one will be open from 2-4pm on Sunday.

flipper

Yeah, it's gas, but it's inside the house so I might be ok with a simple replacement. Better make some phone calls though.

Gracias all.

You don't have to make any calls. I'm right

I have had two different inspectors make me raise them in utility rooms inside the house.

As you know, we are talking about separate issues

Wha? People are leaving work due to the weather?
