Well, this weekend we will be holding another Houston home buyer seminar in the Galleria. If you scroll to the bottom you can find the time and location. I will be speaking on “How to protect yourself from over paying for a home in a declining market” along with “Is it really the time to buy a new home.” At the Houston home buyer’s seminar I will also be giving a tutorial on different web tools that exist to help with one’s home search. I believe my talk will take part at the end of the seminar.
Wells Fargo has been looking as though they are the strongest large commercial bank in the U.S. having posted positive earnings numbers for the first quarter of the year. We will have Jill Stoneburner at the Houston home buyers seminar to discuss loan products and what requirements one must meet to obtain a home loan in this tight credit market. I think most people will be truly surprised at in accuracies portrayed in the National news on this subject.
We will here from another agent in the ERA office I work out of named Tom Johnson. He has over 20 years of experience in home sales in Houston and his talk will discuss the general home buying process. From what I understand speaking to Tom last week he has invited a home inspector to discuss what occurs during a home inspection and why it makes sense to do a home inspection before you purchase a home.
I hope to see some or all of my readers at the Houston home buyers’ seminar this Saturday at 10am in the Galleria. You can find details on place, location and time for the seminar directly bleow.

Did you get a lot of prospective home buyers from your seminar? When my wife and I bought a first home, years before she became an agent, we went to something similar. Of course, that was long before the internet, et al. Just curious to the kind of turn out you received.
With the slow down in the economy, have you found more agents enrolling in your seminars than in the past?
The seminars are held for buyers. At this point I do not have any for agents. If you ment for buyers rather than agents I found a good number of buyers looking to participate. Many people are scared right now and are looking for quality information as well as someone to make sense of all that has happened since August of 2007.
We get a reasonable number of people. Most are looking to gain some kind of understanding to what has gone on in the credit markets.
How are these things working for you? We are thinking about having these in our new office. Any Tips?
Home buyer seminars can be great but you have to do them for like 6 months for them to really start making a difference. The best advertising medium is direct mail. It works better than anything online.
