Mari Realty Huntsville TX -- Check out my New-(ish) "Digs"

Tue, 31 Oct 2017 07:27:11 -0700

Mari Realty Huntsville TX -- Check out my New-(ish) "Digs" Going to the office has become very pleasant. I remodeled! It is quite a challenge to decorate and furnish a small space where "function" is of primary importance. Well, it took a couple of "takes," but I love it now and my clients have said they really like it and it is comfortable. Cool story. One of my clients, a very sharp and successful young businesswoman came by when I first moved into the space to sign some...

Facebook in Huntsville TX Real Estate and More! WHO is Yul Brynner?!

Mon, 07 Jan 2013 05:15:27 -0700

Social Media---Social + Media. Fast track to "getting to know you, getting to know all about you" (okay---how many of you heard the song from the "King and I" in your head???) It's a different world than Cary Grant's of "Judy, Judy Judy" fame or Yul Brynner whose most famous role was the King of Siam in "The King and I."

<h1>Texas Real Estate: Obama Care and the new Real Estate Tax--the REAL deal</h1>
<p>Sun, 07 Oct 2012 14:31:52 -0700</p>
Our legislative branch of government speaks in circles at best mos of the time. It's not a surprise that so much confusion surrounds this issue. Re: OBAMA-CARE as it pertains to the new Real Estate Tax that will become effective in 2013.  Although this is a piece of legislation from March 30, 2010, it just made it to my email box the other day from a client. I bet you've received it too. My clients wrote to me to ask, "Mari, is this true??" Basically, the email that is...

I love, love, love my porch. It is where my husband and I watch the world go by. It's where we take our laptops and work, and where I play a lot of sudoku and maybe a glass of wine. When we moved to Huntsville TX from west of Fort Worth, I told my husband, "what I want in Huntsville TX Real estate is a porch." I want to sit out when it rains and not get wet. (Moving from west of Fort Worth, I just wanted it to rain!) I sure did get my wish. I feel like the...

So. Here it is...the wonderful world of flying. It used to be so exciting. Magical, even. It is quite different these days. Airport security adds an extra hour--or so!-- to travel time each way. And, god forbid if you forget and leave bottled water in your carry on so that you don't have to pay $3.00+ for water. That's a whole other "pat down--bag check" story. So, why is it.....that it takes a figurative "act of congress" to get a FULL glass of beverage and a literal "act of congress" to make any glass HALF empty....
