Austin residents Handsome Ranking per GroomingLounge.com

Austin is the 14th most handsome city in America, survey says


Should we be flattered or distressed?
Austin, Texas comes in at No. 14 on the latest ranking of
 America’s Most Handsome Cities, as compiled by
 GroomingLounge.com. Is a men’s grooming products
 e-retailer and barbershop chain the best judge of looks? 
Who’s to say, though they did outline the following criteria 
used in the ranking: amount of money spent on personal 
care services per man, amount spent on personal care
 products per man, amount spent on personal shaving 
needs per man, amount spent on apparel per man, 
as well as the fittest cities in American ranking.
Maybe Texans like our men a little more rugged
 and au naturel.
The No. 1 ranked city in the survey is Arlington, VA, 
which the report notes is conveniently “sandwiched 
between two brick and mortar Grooming Lounge 
Barbershop locations.” Arlington residents are 
also apparently the most fit people in the entire country.
There’s nothing wrong with being a little thrifty, either. 
The survey makes note that the biggest spenders live in 
Scottsdale (No. 8), where men polled spend an average
 of $498 on personal care items and $387 on clothes annually.
Austinites, you’re still No. 1 in our hearts. 
And don’t shave the beard.

Per TheATX1 (@The ATX) on Twitter: Here are the Future Development Plans for West 6th and Lamar in Old West Austin, near Downtown, ATX.

 This is a massing of the 6th & Lamar (Waterloo Records site) residential project based on the Planning Commission approved zoning. The original plans before a compromise was reached with the local neighborhood association called for a building 31' and two or three floors taller.

Should you BUY a FLIPPED House? ATX Broker Associate GVM Tips, Insights.

 SHOULD YOU BUY a "FLIPPED" HOUSE?  Have you personally ever considered and wondered if you, yourself should BUY  a "flipped house." In my 15+ years of predominantly residential Central Austin brokerage practice and experience, here are my insights, opinions, suggestions and things to be cognizant of.  #1. Absolutely, for sure get a LICENSED INSPECTION on the flipped house! Not all flippers are the same. Just like in life there is a wide spectrum in regards to quality. Some flippers are flat out awful. They make very lipstick-like improvements, skip the expensive items such as the foundation, and plumbing and try to trick the consumer into paying more for a home, when the consumer shouldn't.  On the Flip Side (this joke was just too obvious) There are also excellent high-quality flippers whom selectively choose which homes they flip, and then they invest carefully and beautifully while genuinely  improving a home! Some of these hi-quality upper tier flippe...
