You know, usually when I'm shopping, I want to just browse around and check out the inventory before ever talking to a salesperson. I don't want to feel hassled or rushed. Buying a home is kind of like that... that's why more than 70% of home buyers turn first to the Internet before they ever pick up a phone to call a Realtor.
It's a great way to get started, but it can also be a bit overwhelming, and you never really get ALL of the information you'd like about a property. At some point along the way, you do need the help of a professional Realtor.
I'd like to help you out in the initial stages. I can do custom property searches for you, matching DETAILED search criteria (more criteria than you can enter in national search databases), and e-mail you links to properties that might work for you. The e-mail links include photos, descriptions, addresses and driving directions! Spend a couple weekends doing "drive-bys" of the properties that are most interesting to you... by yourself, if you'd like, with no pressure from me!
When you are ready to see some of your favorite homes in person, I'll be here. In the meantime, we can correspond occasionally by e-mail, all at your pace. This is a totally FREE service and you are under no obligation to me. I promise you won't find any high-pressure sale tactics here - just GREAT service! 
Let Me Personally Search for a Home, Condo, Townhome or Lot that Matches Your Criteria, for Free and Without Obligation.
As a top Lake Travis Realtor, I make it my business to be aware of every local home or property on the market. I even know of properties that will be available, but have yet to formally be placed on the market.
I have direct access to the Austin MLS (covering Lake Travis, Lakeway Lago Vista, Point Venture, Volente, Jonestown, Spicewood, Briarcliff and Marble Falls) and also to every other agent in the area and all of their listings.
If you give me some idea of what you are looking for, I will personally review all my sources of real estate listing information and send you everything within your price range that matches your criteria. I can save you a great deal of time! This is a totally free service, and there is no obligation. It's part of my job to offer services like this to homebuyers.

Foreclosures >3. How To Avoid Foreclosure
If you’re behind on your mortgage payments, have no fear. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has some really good tips what to do to avoid foreclosure.
- Don’t ignore it. The longer you put off your situation and get behind in your finances, the more likely it will be that you will lose your home to foreclosure. As soon as a problem arises...
- Contact your lender. Your lender will be the best resource to help you avoid foreclosure.
- Check your mail. Your lender will send you important information about avoiding foreclosure and also legal documents in the mail. You’re responsible for these documents and will be held accountable for them.
- Know your rights. Make sure you know the ins and outs of your loan documents so that you can be prepared for what your lender can and can’t do. Be sure to also know the foreclosure laws in your state.
- Understand your options. Visit the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development website to get informed.
- Contact a HUD-approved housing counselor. Call (800) 569-4287 to talk to someone who can help you understand your options.
- Your house should be a priority. Your house should be your first priority after the health and well being of you and your family. Eliminate any optional spending (cable TV, Internet, etc.) in order to make your house payments.
- Use your assets. If you have assets (expensive jewelry, a car, etc.) you can sell those and use the cash you gain to help reinstate your loan.
- Stay away from foreclosure prevention companies. These companies will charge you outrageous fees to contact your lender and negotiate your loan. Just save your money and put that toward your mortgage.
- Watch out for foreclosure recovery scams. Some firms may claim to stop the foreclosure process for you immediately and require you to sign your life away for them to do so. Consult your HUD-approved counselor before signing anything.
