&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;If you plan on moving any time in the near future, you may be stressing out over hiring a trustworthy moving company.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Selling your Corpus Christi home? &lt;a href="http://www.corpuschristimarketvalue.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Get a free home value report&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"&gt;
&lt;span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Many people who are making a move stress about the process. There are a few common fears that homeowners have when choosing a moving company, and today we want to help alleviate them. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span id="docs-internal-guid-cc524dc1-b74a-74ce-546d-3276047006da"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"&gt;It all starts with pricing and execution. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"&gt;Everyone wants to be moved properly, by professionals, and for a fair price. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"&gt;It’s key to balance these three things when selecting a moving company. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"&gt;The cheapest company isn’t always the best choice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"&gt;; you really need to sit down with a moving consultant or estimator to determine what’s going on and what needs to be done in order to get the best possible results.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;We’ve got two different market updates for you today.

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;We’ve got an update for you today about both the local and national real estate market. Jonathan Smoke, Chief Economist at Realtor.com, says:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;"Overall, the fundamental trends we have been seeing all year remain solidly in place as we enter the traditionally slower sales season, and pent-up demand remains substantial as buyers seek to get a home under contract while rates remain so low.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;While we’ve been enjoying historically low interest rates for quite some time, Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, MBA, and the NAR are all predicting that interest rates will rise in the next year. If you're thinking about buying, it’s important to lock in those rates while you can. &lt;b&gt;When rates go up, so does your monthly payment.&lt;/b&gt; If you’re a seller, buyers may no longer qualify to buy your home when rates go up.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;According to First American Chief Economist Mark Fleming:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;“Extremely limited supply is stopping the market from reaching its full potential, counteracting positive increases in market fundamentals, such as employment and wages.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Due to lack of inventory and continued steady foot traffic, the measure of months of inventory is low.&lt;/b&gt; With consistent foot traffic, that gives us a pretty good outlook for the next year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-box"&gt;
&lt;span class="quote quote-left"&gt;“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-text"&gt;
Anything under $200,000 is moving quickly in Corpus Christi.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span class="quote quote-right"&gt;”&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now let’s talk about the Corpus Christi market itself. According to the Corpus Christi Housing Report, here’s what happened in our market in the last year:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The median home price went up 7% to $190,000.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Active listings are up 21.2%.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The average days on market is up by 11 to give us an average of 66 days on market.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Inventory is slightly up, from 4.7 months to 5.4 months.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;There are currently 389 homes under contract, giving us a 24.9% pending ratio.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The $150,000 to $200,000 price range has a relatively large number of pending sales.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The $200,000 to $250,000 price range has a relatively large inventory of 241 listings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Today’s absorption rate is 4.2.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;As you can see, anything under $200,000 is moving extremely well. &lt;b&gt;As you increase in price, absorption rate goes up as well.&lt;/b&gt; The absorption rate shows what the supply is compared to the demand.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

I think the marketing was good. David did have a lot of good information that he helped us with and pointed us in the right direction a few times. He was very cooperative and made himself available and gave us some real good tips as far as our over 65 exemptions which was a very confusing issue. He really helped us out there.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</description><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>Don’t Miss Out on Fall Selling Opportunities </title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/10/dont-miss-out-on-fall-selling.html</link><category>Home Seller Tips</category><pubDate>Fri, 28 Oct 2016 09:21:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-8299188009939200343</guid><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LjLwPd_9QCs?rel=0" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Why are the fall and winter months such a good time to sell a home? I’ve got five great reasons to give you today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Selling your Corpus Christi home? &lt;a href="http://www.corpuschristimarketvalue.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Get a free home value report&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Buying a Corpus Christi home? &lt;a href="http://www.corpuschristihometracker.com/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Search all homes for sale&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;I wanted to give you five reasons why you should list your home on the market now rather than waiting for spring.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The first is that &lt;b&gt;inventory is usually low around this time of year.&lt;/b&gt; You want to take advantage of the fact that most homeowners are thinking of putting their house up for sale in the springtime, but if you do it now while demand is still high and the inventory is low, you’ll be able to position your home to attract a higher offer.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Secondly, remember that interest rates are still very good these days. There are discussions that the rates may go up after the new year, so buyers and sellers are encouraged to take advantage now and lock in those good rates. As a seller, remember that if rates go up, a portion of the people who qualify for your home now may not qualify. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-box"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="quote quote-left"&gt;“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-text"&gt;
Fall and winter buyers are usually more serious about getting a deal done.
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="quote quote-right"&gt;”&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The third reason is that there are more homes in the spring. It’s basic economics—the price of your home that the market will bear is a function of supply versus demand. It’s a good opportunity to sell now while demand is high and inventory is low. &lt;b&gt;When the inventory increases in the spring, you'll just be another home on the market. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The fourth reason to list now is that buyers who are out looking for homes in the fall and winter months are usually far more serious about buying a home. It’s always a good idea to try to attract more serious buyers. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;The fifth and final reason is that there are buyers out there who want to get into a new home before the holidays. If you put your home on the market now, it will be an option for one of these buyers who needs to buy fast. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;These are the kinds of reasons why I offer my 2016 real estate report, which I’d be happy to give to you. It’s loaded with helpful information that breaks down Corpus Christi real estate from the perspective of both buyers and sellers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;If you have&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;any questions about buying or selling in the fall, please feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I’d be happy to help!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/LjLwPd_9QCs/default.jpg" width="72"/><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>How The David Garcia Home Selling Team Helped Venita</title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/10/how-david-garcia-home-selling-team.html</link><category>Testimonial</category><pubDate>Fri, 7 Oct 2016 13:03:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-375796961353319419</guid><description>&lt;iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/286626041&amp;amp;color=ff5500&amp;amp;auto_play=false&amp;amp;hide_related=false&amp;amp;show_comments=true&amp;amp;show_user=true&amp;amp;show_reposts=false" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;“I got the results I was looking for, I got to buy my home, didn’t leave a lot of extra money on the table, things I didn’t, wouldn’t have even known about had I not had them doing the things they are knowledgeable about for me, on my behalf. So I had a good result, I mean it was excellent. We’re where we want to be. They did some recommendations for me for getting my credit, so I could learn and be educated in how to get my credit reports in order and that type of thing. So from the beginning they were out there, I don’t know if there’s really agents that do that for you, I don’t know, but they did. They helped me get everything in a straight line.&amp;nbsp; After that when it came time to close the seller had some issues and David stepped in, he took over, he made arrangements, he just went beyond what I thought was even possible to make our move happen when it was supposed to and not have us have to go live in a hotel. “&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</description><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>How The David Garcia Home Selling Team Set Javier at Ease</title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/10/how-david-garcia-home-selling-team-set.html</link><category>Testimonial</category><pubDate>Tue, 4 Oct 2016 09:31:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-1421548771832776554</guid><description>&lt;iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/286019976&amp;amp;color=ff5500&amp;amp;auto_play=false&amp;amp;hide_related=false&amp;amp;show_comments=true&amp;amp;show_user=true&amp;amp;show_reposts=false" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;“Oh the results were excellent, he got my house sold within a month.

And we got what we wanted out of it. It was a great experience as far as Realtors concerned, we’ve had real estate agents in the past that don’t have near the integrity and drive that he has to get your property moved for you. He kept us up to snuff on everything that was going on in the market, he’s always sending me stuff on market values, what they’re doing, up or down, those kind of things, and he advised us on if we should lower the price just a little bit. We did that on his suggestion, we were still in the range of where we wanted to be and it was kind of like the magic number and as soon as we did that we had a couple offers immediately.&amp;nbsp; He was like a hound dog, he stayed out there and he got after it the whole time.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</description><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>Why Diana Thinks The David Garcia Home Selling Team is Unbelievable</title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/08/why-diana-thinks-david-garcia-home.html</link><category>Testimonial</category><pubDate>Tue, 30 Aug 2016 07:09:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-7828091722285617290</guid><description>&lt;iframe frameborder="no" height="166" scrolling="no" src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/280583811&amp;amp;color=ff5500&amp;amp;auto_play=false&amp;amp;hide_related=false&amp;amp;show_comments=true&amp;amp;show_user=true&amp;amp;show_reposts=false" width="100%"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;“They are unbelievable.

He explained everything to us. He was not someone that gave you a fantasy, he was realistic with us, which we appreciated so much. He put our house on the market and stayed in touch with us throughout the whole process. I think every time I called I feel like they went above and beyond in talking to me. Sellers get very anxious and I think they were very good in being able to calm me down and let me know, you know, things are progressing as they should be. David and his staff are just wonderful, I would highly recommend David to anybody he’s very personable, very caring, he’s even called me several times since we’ve moved to make sure we’re doing okay and that is definitely over and beyond the call of his duty to sell our home. So he’s just a really neat guy and I think people would enjoy meeting him and working with him.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</description><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>5 Things to Look for in Your Next Real Estate Agent</title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/08/5-things-to-look-for-in-your-next-real.html</link><category>Real Estate Tips and Tricks</category><pubDate>Mon, 29 Aug 2016 15:18:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-1552381336418705829</guid><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/K0cKn5C9rJc?rel=0" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;If you’re thinking of selling your home, it’s absolutely crucial that you find the agent for the right reasons. How do you know how to distinguish the good agents from the bad ones? Here are five things to look for in your next real estate agent:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;1.&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Experience.&lt;/b&gt; This is absolutely the most important thing to look for. You want to know whether they’re a full-time agent or simply a hobbyist, and how many years they’ve been actively selling real estate in your area. To get a clearer picture of their experience, ask these questions: How many homes have they sold in the past year? How many homes do they sell on average each month? What is their average days on market for homes they’ve sold? What have their past clients said about working with them? These are important metrics for you to understand as a seller.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2.&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Specialty.&lt;/b&gt; What does this agent specialize in? It’s nice to find an agent who is well-rounded, but you may want to consider hiring someone who specializes in working with homeowners exclusively. These agents will understand the different variables that come into play when pricing your home. You don’t want someone who will use “hope” as a selling strategy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-box"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="quote quote-left"&gt;“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-text"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Good negotiation skills come from&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-text"&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;years of experience.
  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;3. Negotiating skills.&lt;/b&gt; Learning to negotiate is not necessarily something that an agent can easily learn from a YouTube video or in a book; this skill comes with years of experience. You should know their negotiating techniques and strategies up front.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;4. Knowledge of the market. &lt;/b&gt;Consider asking an agent questions about things like the average residential asking price of a home in your area, and what the current absorption rate is. An agent should also know how to handle potential outside threats from interest rates, market trends, job loss and economic indicators.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5. &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;T&lt;/span&gt;eam players.&lt;/b&gt; It’s very important to understand the difference between an agent that works on their own versus one who works as part of a team. It’s very difficult for solo agents to manage so many aspects of home buying and selling with so many clients at the same time. For this reason, I’d recommend finding an agent with a team and a strategy in place to manage customer satisfaction and will get you top dollar on your home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the biggest mistakes you can make as a homeowner is choosing an agent for the wrong reasons. You definitely should not choose an agent just because they are cheaper than others, and be careful about working with family or friends. Make sure you choose the right agent for the right reasons by doing your homework beforehand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you’d like my help in finding the right agent to fit your needs, give me a call or send me an email. I’d be happy to assist you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://img.youtube.com/vi/K0cKn5C9rJc/default.jpg" width="72"/><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>How to Make the Best Offer on a Corpus Christi Home </title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/07/how-to-make-best-offer-on-corpus.html</link><category>Home Buyer Tips</category><pubDate>Mon, 11 Jul 2016 08:45:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-7453144596974158446</guid><description>&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1WkUlzkNF_E?rel=0" width="560"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;Today I’m joined by Joaquin Granados, our lead home buyer specialist. We’re going to discuss this common question from our buyers: “How much should I offer on that home?” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are many different variables for you to consider before you make an offer on a property. First of all, you have to consider &lt;b&gt;supply and demand&lt;/b&gt;. How many buyers are looking for homes in the same price point as you are? The foot traffic for the neighborhood in that price point is going to be a determining factor for how much you should offer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The condition of the property is also important. Does the home need upgrades? Does it need repairs to major structural components of the property? Pay special attention to the roof and the foundation, as any issues there could cost you a lot of money down the road.&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-box"&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="quote quote-left"&gt;“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="quote-text"&gt;
FIND OUT HOW LONG THE HOME HAS BEEN ON THE MARKET BEFORE MAKING AN OFFER. 
		&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="quote quote-right"&gt;”&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;You should also consider &lt;b&gt;the size of the property.&lt;/b&gt; Is it the biggest home on the block? Is there enough functional square footage for you and your family? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Days on market is another important variable. Has the property been on the market for days, weeks, months, a year, or more? The buyer should know this information before making an offer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Closing cost concessions are also important. Do you want the best price on the home or the best terms? If price is especially important to you, &lt;b&gt;past sales are a great indicator of how much the property is worth.&lt;/b&gt; Looking at past sales ensures that you are not overpaying for the property. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As you can see, making an offer is a lot more difficult than just throwing out a number. There are many variables for you and your agent to go over. If you have any questions for us, give us a call or send us an email.

It was kinda funny, we got on the web, my wife started looking around and said, hey look at this commercial for a guy named David. Well, he’s got a good endorsement and he’s got lots of good reviews, so let’s go ahead and check it out. We met with David a few days after that.&amp;nbsp; And he came out and he explained how he operates. David was obviously very professional, but I could tell he’s the kind of guy who lays it out like it is.&amp;nbsp; He was very businesslike, said hey look here’s how we’re gonna do it, if you’re gonna do business with me you’re going to have to do some of these things I’m gonna recommend and you’re going to have to spend a little money to make this happen. If you do these things I’ve never had a house not sell, let alone quickly. We had to get a stager of course, we paid for a pre-inspection, and whatever little repairs had to be done after we got the pre-inspection results. Things just happened. Within 16 days of being on the market we basically had a buyer. I think everything that David said held true.&amp;nbsp; Cause we were kind of in a crunch situation. We had to get the house sold and move so we could get up to North Texas to help out family. So we were really in a pinch and we had no room for error. We went in, we weren’t trying to make a profit off of this but we knew were at a pretty high price point. And when it was all said and done David did his thing negotiating with the buyers. It wasn’t about generating a profit for him. It was about getting the house sold. I know it sounds funny but a lot of agents we’ve dealt with in the past it was like alright, let me hurry up and get it on the market and cross my fingers and hope it sells. David was very particular about how he went about doing business. After two weeks or so if we’re not getting anything or it’s not looking the way we want it to, we’re not just going to go out and lower the price, we’re going to sit down with you. We’re going to go over a market analysis, and then we’re going to talk, make recommendations, [and] you’re going to give us feedback on what you think about that. I think that’s what stood out was that it wasn’t just about money it was about doing good business for the customer not just making a profit. It was about how to make the house stand out and how to take care of the customer. “&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;</description><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>The Real Value of Healthy Credit Scores</title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/02/the-real-value-of-healthy-credit-scores.html</link><category>Real Estate Tips and Tricks</category><pubDate>Thu, 18 Feb 2016 13:14:00 -0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-7042565160261651209</guid><description>&lt;div class="embed-container"&gt;

He’ll be sharing tips with us on how to improve your credit score. It’s not as difficult as some people may have you believe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;First, you need a copy of your report and you need to check the personal information section.&lt;/b&gt; Make a note of all the incorrect information you might find in there, because it all counts against you. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another good move is to check all of your credit cards. &lt;b&gt;Check your balance to limit ratio, because a ratio of more than 20% will begin to drag your credit score down.&lt;/b&gt; If you can keep it under 19%, your score will begin to rise back up.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

David and his team basically saved me from financial turmoil. I had a really bad mortgage with the previous home and I was basically financially bleeding out. If it wasn’t for him and his team I’d probably would’ve gone bankrupt by now. His knowledge was off the charts. He knew exactly what I needed to do, the time frame that I had didn’t faze him, he was very confident throughout the whole process that he put me through. I’m so thankful and I’m so grateful. I hope that he does for others what he has done for me. He was definitely God sent. David, even as a person and not just the business man that he is, he made it very very clear that he was there to help. He walked me through pretty much the whole process. Even though a lot of the terminology that was thrown at me of what was going on was jargon he took the time to explain everything to me. Of what was happening and what had to be done. I couldn’t be more thankful. I owe my financial survival to him” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description><georss:featurename xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">Corpus Christi, TX, USA</georss:featurename><georss:point xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.8005828 -97.396381000000019</georss:point><georss:box xmlns:georss="http://www.georss.org/georss">27.3507198 -98.041828000000024 28.2504458 -96.750934000000015</georss:box><author>david@davidsellshomes.com (David Garcia)</author></item><item><title>How Can You Increase Your Corpus Christi Home’s Value?</title><link>http://realtordavidgarcia.blogspot.com/2016/02/how-can-you-increase-your-corpus.html</link><category>Home Buyer Tips</category><category>Home Seller Tips</category><pubDate>Wed, 10 Feb 2016 08:42:00 -0800</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091889890242288827.post-6032004844466687304</guid><description>&lt;div class="embed-container"&gt;

&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;This will increase your home’s value while at the same time making it more appealing to buyers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. &lt;b&gt;Upgrades and updates&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;Take some time to walk around your home like a buyer would. Notice things like countertops, lighting and plumbing fixtures, and carpets. Replacing one or all of these items could dramatically increase your perceived value. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. &lt;b&gt;Painting touch-ups&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;It’s important to walk around your home and touch up areas like baseboards or walls. A coat of paint can really go a long way and give the home a nice, fresh feel.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. &lt;b&gt;Deteriorated wood&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;Note the areas that should be replaced, such as garage and door frames, and window areas. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. &lt;b&gt;Curb appeal&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;Here’s another nugget. This is absolutely important when your home goes on the market. Most buyers start their search online. Cut your grass, trim your trees, plant some fresh plants around the front door area. These things can definitely increase your showings as well as your perceived value.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Is there a difference between cost and price?&lt;/b&gt; As a home seller, you should be concerned about the short-term price of your home. Where are home values heading over the next six months? Will the current interest rates or rising interest rates help or hurt your home's value?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You should also consider the absorption rate. Keeping the pulse of the market helps give you an idea of the price of your home. According to the National Association of Realtors, an absorption rate of 6 months is a balanced market. Anything over six months is considered a buyer's market and anything under six months is a seller's market.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Since the price of your home is a function of supply and demand, it's important to know what's happening with the market. &lt;b&gt;Work with a real estate agent who knows the market inside and out, and you'll get the best price for your home.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: normal;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;As a buyer, you should pay attention to the cost of your home.

As a home seller, you should be concerned about the short-term price of your home. Where are home values heading over the next six months? Will the current interest rates or rising interest rates help or hurt your home's value? You should also consider the absorption rate. Keeping the pulse of the market helps give you an idea of the price of your home. According to the National Association of Realtors, an absorption rate of 6 months is a balanced market. Anything over six months is considered a buyer's market and anything under six months is a seller's market. Since the price of your home is a function of supply and demand, it's important to know what's happening with the market. Work with a real estate agent who knows the market inside and out, and you'll get the best price for your home. &amp;nbsp;As a buyer, you should pay attention to the cost of your home.
