I would rather have a 50-year-old home that's renovated than a new build.

Baytown is definitely up and coming - a lot of new builds and old builds being completely renovated.

BTW, the new system doesn't provide documentation of all (including not accepted) bids.

the financing fees, my client is thinking that he might be better off paying cash for everything instead of financing, but he’s thinking he should do it just for the learning and to allow his company to build creditfrom my perspective I just would like to know if these fees are right on point or if they are expensive. let me know your thoughts thank you in advance.

One of the most important things to start out is building your team.

Real estate consists of land or buildings.
