Join My Secret Handshake Club  What's In It for Me, you Ask?
Benefit #1: Be "In the Know" Welcome to one of the most popular areas on my website! Sign up with your name and e-mail address, and you'll be part of an exclusive club that receives periodic e-mails from me.
Sometimes, it's announcements of upcoming boat shows, regattas, or parties on the lake. Sometimes it's the inside scoop on a hot real estate deal that I know won't be around for long. There's the occasional bit of useless trivia. And, sometimes it's really important news flashes, like warnings of impending flooding, or changes in the laws that affect us on Lake Travis.
Benefit #2: Membership Has Its Privileges If you add your mailing address, I'll personally mail you a Secret Handshake Club card. Keep it handy in your wallet - as a certified, card-carrying member, when you see me out on Lake Travis and present the card, I'll buy you a drink! Mailings also include the periodic coupon for discounts at lakefront restaurants, too!
What's the Catch? Aw, come on - you people are so cynical. Relax. This is Lake Travis we're talking about - it's all laid back here. There is no catch. I never share your contact info with any third parties. You either want useful Lake Travis info (and the chance at a free drink), or you don't...
Sign Up Below As you sign up, remember that a name and email address are sufficient for the email announcements. Don't forget to add your full mailing address if you want me to mail you a Secret Handshake Club card.

Disclosure Laws >Defects Must Be Revealed
Disclosure laws make it important to reveal all material defects when you are selling a home. It is important to be absolutely candid with your agent and all buyers about the condition of the property. If there is anything wrong with the roof, the plumbing, the wiring or structure, it will probably not remain a "sleeping dog". The problem will probably wake up, snarl, growl and snap at your ankles at the precise moment your buyers feel their first stirring of buyers' remorse.
It is unlikely that defects will go undetected, because most buyers get a home inspection before they are contractually obliged to complete the purchase. Even if the problems do not surface before the closing, your liability does not end after the closing for any defects you may have forgotten to report. Buyers almost never accept misrepresentation graciously, but they can usually deal with a house that is short of perfection if they know what they are getting into from the beginning. When selling your home, your real estate agent will provide you with a seller's disclosure form. Protect yourself by clearly describing any material defects prior to the sale.
