Special Government Home Renovation Loan Program using Higland Village TX FHA 203k Renovation Loans.Many people are not aware of a special government loan program that is part of the Federal Housing Administration or FHA(a department within HUD). A buyer or existing home owner can do meaningful amounts of remodeling or updates to their existing home without having a higher cost second lien thanks to this special FHA loan program.However, this loan program doesn't allow for "luxury items" in your home such as a swimming pool, hot tub, or other accessories. Although, you can repaint, replace flooring and appliances, add a room to an existing structure (which can add to value tremendously as you increase the square feet of your home) as well as remodel cabinetry in kitchens and bathrooms.Th...

Today is finally one of those days. The gentle pinging of rain hits my patio and steam is billowing off my pool.Ah, fall. You've arrived to the party! I thought your invitation was lost in the mail! After a record-high 93 degrees on Sunday, today's 45 degree-day is a reminder that if you don't like the weather in Texas, just wait a day or two. I am not one to skip over holidays, especially Thanksgiving. It's one holiday that I truly enjoy because it signifies a celebration of rest. It is nestled between the chaos of Halloween a month prior, and the chaos that is upon us with Christmas. There aren't many times that it's perfectly acceptable to take a nap after a belly-filling meal while company hangs out. Thanksgiving is just one of those days!However, even with the hope of Thankgiving, ...

by ©Patricia Feager, 5/4/2017  Spring brings forth an abundance of Texas Wildflowers. Today I came upon the Mexican Hat in Highland Village near Flower Mound, TX and its petals were waving in the wind. It's such a cheery flower. They come in bright yellow or burnt orange. The first shot is the shot I got this morning about 11:00 a.m. It's in its pure and natural color - no editing at all.   Below is the same photo using the software Ribbet. In just a subtle change, I got a different result. All I did was give it a Mirrored Frame in the shade of blue I felt came closest to the color of the sky, I added a shadow with medium thickness and added my name in red to make it pop. I liked what the effect did to the edges of the flower's petals and felt it made the flower more pronounced than in ...

      While walking through one of my favorite neighborhoods in Highland Village this morning I paused to take notice of these beautiful lions. Then I was reminded of a song The Lion Sleeps Tonight, by the Tokens and one of my favorite quotes from the movie "The Lion King."    “You must take your place in the Circle of Life.” You were put on the earth for a reason. You have a role to play in the world. Don’t get lazy and give up on things. There are people that need you in their lives, lessons you must learn and mistakes you must make. Take your place in the natural flow of things."   Sometimes even I forget that I was put here on earth for a reason. Is it human nature to take things for granted? See the lions at the foot of the stairs? They were made by man to rest. That reminds me, I ...

    This beautiful 3,525 square foot home, located at 4128 Amhurst Drive in Highland Village, Chapel Hill Subdivision (5 bedroom, 3 living room, 3 car garage) sold today on June 13, 2014. From the moment the home went under contract until now, even with a Full Moon last night, and a closing on Friday the 13th, everything went smoothly. The Listing Agent was a true professional. We worked together to make a happy ending for both his Sellers and my Buyers. Although Buyers and Sellers rarely, if every meet face to face, these two did outside the closing room doors. I was there to witness an opening and a closing for two different families. Both men are having the best Father's Day Weekend ever. One left his trail of tears last night as he said goodbye; the other woke up with tears in his e...
