Texas Realtors Association; Form 1506 Revised to Reflect current Market Conditions 4.27.2021

 









Texas REALTORS® has added a Property Values section to form 1506, General Information and Notice to Buyers and Sellers. This form is intended to be presented to clients so that agents discuss the topics on the form with their buyers and sellers.

The purpose of the new section is to address the current market trend of buyers paying significantly higher than list price or appraised value as well as potential future market trends.

The revised form is available now at texasrealestate.com and through all form-fill vendors. Here is the new language:

PROPERTY VALUES. The real estate market is cyclical and current property values may fluctuate. Brokers and agents cannot guarantee desired future market conditions or property values. The ultimate decision on the price and terms a Buyer is willing to buy and a Seller is willing to sell for a specific property rests solely with that Buyer and Seller.

If you have questions about the new language, please call the Legal Hotline at 800-873-9155.

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

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...

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 ...
