A Bicycle Ride through Mueller after a Home Showing...



Friends, If y'all weren't aware, I, George Vance McGee personally and recently physically moved my place of Residence to Central EAST Austin near Manor Road, French Place, Cherrywood, Blackland and the Chestnut neighborhoods. So far so good.

Today on 4.20.2020. Yep that is the actual day, I had a 6:15 pm Buyer's Agent showing appointment for  a home with a pool, in a neighborhood I'm marketing and identifying as "Mueller North." Mueller North is located North  of East 51st street and East & West of Berkman Drive. In the past 5 years Mueller North  has been gentrifying steadily. Lots of Home Remodels, Updating, and "Fix and Flip" properties. The ballpark price range of this Mueller North neighborhood is between $250,000-$500,000. It is NOT yet known as an above $500,000 dollar geographic area. Also, despite it's improved "Crestview / Allandale"-esque feel, ambiance and overall VIBE, the demolish and Build NEW hysteria has skipped Mueller North. My buyers and I think, it's because the AISD school tract for the neighborhood is on the poor to below average academic scale and level. Also the lingering stigma of Austin, East of Interstate 35, must still persist somehow.

Post Showing, I bicycled back home, and through the actual Mueller Neighborhood. If you haven't been, the Mueller neighborhood is very unique. It is like it's own small town, within the city of Austin, Texas. A bubble within a bubble. Have you ever seen the   1998 released Jim Carey flick and pre-reality era Movie, "the Truman Show"? Click here to view the Truman Show Movie Trailer. It feels like that. A fabricated, diverse, welcoming, liberal, little community. There is also a nature friendly, gravel, and enjoyable outdoor trail to run, fish, bicycle, read, or picnic on. It's welcoming, free and pretty cool! If you are looking for a place to exercise, that is NOT the Lady Bird Hike and  Bike Trail on Town Lake, then scope out the Mueller trail one morning, afternoon, or weekend. 

So here are some photos I personally took today on 4.20.2020

As always, if you have any Residential REAL ESTATE questions in regards to sales, leasing, land development or real estate  in general contact me.

Austin, Texas has a DOG PROBLEM.....

  Austin, Texas has a DOG problem (Letter I wrote and sent) Dear Austin City Council Members, Hello and well regards, Yesterday afternoon during a simple bicycle pedal exercise ride, I was physically chased by an unleashed Pitbull dog in ZILKER PARK. Then directly after recovering from almost being mauled by an unleashed pit-bull in Zilker Park, I attempted to buy a Gatorade at a nearby Barton Springs Road Market, but that didn't go well either, as an interior Market commercial customer had a massive mixed breed dog trolling through the diminutive shopping isles. Then this morning, at a Coffee shop on SoCo, there was only 1 entry way in and out, and there was another large, although more docile mixed breed dog. All of this has occurred in less than 24 hours. What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash! Not everybody like dogs, being everywhere all the time. especially within ...

I got up early and went = ESPN's Live College Football Gameday Show @ University of Texas - Austin Fall 2024

 I awoke circa 5:30 am this past Saturday, took a shower, grabbed a quick bite to eat and coffee@ QT; then rode my moped down to the University of Texas, South Lawn or "6-pack" area to view the LIVE ESPN taping and broadcast show, COLLEGE GAMEDAY. When I arrived on campus at 6 am it was still dark and there were plenty of fans already there. The actual LIVE College Gameday Show started at 8 am Central Time. We as fans are simply backdrop visuals and noise for the show. There were tons of fans signs, almost too many to even read. All of the On-Air TV Talent was friendly and excellent! Desmond Howard, Lee Corso, Pat McAfee, Kirk Herbstreet, and Nick Saban. Pat McAfee is the "get the home crowd revved up" talent, which is needed for the live show. Overall it was quite entertaining and free to attend. It'll get your Saturday juiced up. https://promo.espn.com/collegegameday/
