So if you are planning to buy or sell a house and you are not in the Austin area, I can still help you. Just email me at robin@robinscottrealtor.com and I'll find a reputable agent in your area of interest.

A Fast Growing City - Austin

Coming from Houston 25 years ago, I wanted to make sure I was moving to a city that had potential growth and provided a minimum of amenities. Austin has grown into an amenity filled city in which to live with many parks, access to lakes, hills, camping, spots events, major music events, movie making, quality shopping, major employers, great restaurants and more.

 Now one of the fastest growing cities in the US, according to a recent article published in the Austin American Statesman, Austin experienced a 12.3 percent increase from July 2011 to July 2012 with a population count of 1,834,303.

Better Business Bureau

It's an unfortunate thing that the general public doesn't trust REALTORS because to be a REALTOR you are not only licensed by the state in which you practice and subject to local laws but you are also a member of the National Association of REALTORS which hold you to a strict code of ethics.

The Better Business Bureau called to ask if I'd be interested in becoming accredited through them. It is another way to assure the public that you are ethical and a solid business risk. If I were to display the BBB membership logo on my marketing, is that something that would encourage you to contact and chose me as your REALTOR?

Your Credit Score and Your Interest Rate

The better your credit score, the lower your interest rate! With current interest rates, a homebuyer with a FICO score of 760-850 ( and 850 is the highest score available) your loan rate may be 3.277% APR. With a lower score of 620-639 you might expect 4.878% APR. On a 30-year fixed rate mortgage of $150,000 that could be a difference of $139 a month in your mortgage payment. To see how your credit score could effect your loan amount visit www.myfico.com/myfico/creditcentral/loanrates.aspx
