New Cost Savings for Landlords  This year’s legislative session resulted in several new or revised real estate-related laws . One of them for landlords.   The Texas Property Code requires a Landlord re-key all security devices after each tenancy. Landlords will be able to deduct the cost of rekeying a security device from a tenant’s deposit when the tenant vacates a rental property in breach of a written lease, as long as the lease includes specific language. The TAR Residential Lease has been revised to include this language.  If you are a Landlord consider a property management service who keeps abreast of the changes in Property Management. 12/18/2015

The holiday season may bring less daylight hours but the activities are plentiful and for those residents in Murphy TX Christmas in the Park proved to be eventful. The city of Murphy hosted the celebration on Thursday, December 4th keeping it from conflicting with the much larger events in the area. The festivites began at 5:00 pm as did the rain - light thank goodness. It didn't keep the choirs from local schools from singing nor did it turn us away from the tree lighting at 6:20 pm which by that time the rain had let up. Along the sides were vendors of all sorts selling their holiday wares or foods. In the back was a fire pit roaring for all those willing to roast marshmallows. Santa was there but my eyes were focused on the lighting of the tree. The Christmas tree has always been my ... 12/08/2014

One day these youngsters will look back fondly at their first ever stage appearance on the city of Murphy Amphitheatre remembering a day when they had that stage all to themselves. It won't be happening again anytime soon though. Especially not after the huge success of last Friday night's performance. Families all over Murphy came out to enjoy the Sounds of Sundown. They brought along with them chairs, blankets and coolers filled with picnic goodies. Others relished the offerings of local vendors such as Chick Fil-A or Mel's grill.

Today's look at the new home listings in Murphy indicates a drop in all price ranges except for those priced $354,900 and above. Two factors that play a major role in the increase of the higher price range has to do with the increase in recent months of the sales price of homes and the new construction that is being built in several of Murphy's neighborhoods. Homeowners remain hesitant to step out into today's market which weighs heavily on the number of new listings on the market.  Last summer really brought home this fact to buyers when the market flipped. It became a seller's market in what seemed like overnight to unsuspecting buyers. It was evident in the early part of 2013 as seen by the numbers but was a major influence by summer. And it remains a seller's market due to even less... 06/01/2014

City of Murphy opens Murphy Central Park and the child in me is delighted! It is located at 206 North Murphy Road just north of the City's Municipal buildings and adjacent to Murphy's PSA. Recently I visited the park with some very special people there to help me explore all that the park offers. Our first stop was at the amphitheater where they graciously provided a live song on-stage for the first time. No autographs were given. The water park (not photographed) was not operational as the weather remains on the cool side. But the most fun was found on the playground with the spider web climb, spinning spiral and rings. The pond sits to the east of the playground and further exploration of the pond will happen when the weather warms in the City of Murphy. 04/16/2014

Friday night in Murphy at the local Racetrack on FM 544 finds us fueling up for the weekend and some local cruising time. Sitting there in the car reminded me of a recent experience on our trip to Denver. Having returned home only a few days ago my thoughts turn to what most travelers or relocated homeowners must feel in a community they are not familiar with. Our traveling days are normally limited to a long weekend rarely exceeding 5 days; I prefer 3. I am a home body. But we had a special reason to go to Denver. Baby granddaughter was awaiting to meet us. It was absolutely wonderful spending time with her for 9 whole days but did it ever put us outside of our comfort zone. Anytime we decided to venture out on our own for even the simplest of life's pleasure like finding a doughnut s... 03/28/2014

Knowing when you are ready to sell includes understanding the turn over rate. The turn over rate is a look at the percentage of homes sold within a specified period of time for a particular area. It is one of several key numbers that can tell a story about where you live. As a listing agent in Murphy I know that the turn over rate tells me something about the area's dynamics. On average most neighborhoods have a 10 maybe 20% turn over rate. A number greater than that can indicate a neighborhood of young residents that are more mobile than others. Or it could be an indication of the overall market such as the downturn we saw happen in 2008. Let's take a look at the neighborhood of the Ranch, a D.R. Horton community located on the far north border of Murphy and east of N. Murphy Rd. This ... 03/01/2014
