Austin’s grounds crews prepping Zilker for Day 2 at Austin City Limits!
Make sure to wear water proof boots 🤣
Regular Stores sold out? Think Tractor Supply, Bass Pro Shop… etc

If you’re going to ACL remember your rain boots and coat!!!
Teams are hard at work trying to remedy the water but it takes one shower for it all to come back…
Stay classy Austin!

Everybody's scared of housing right now. So why did Warren Buffett's company just buy almost 10% of Lennar?
It's not a one-off. They bought Taylor Morrison outright this summer and own a piece of D.R. Horton.
They're not buying for next quarter.
$150 Pool Cleaner throws home seller under the bus… potential lawsuit?!
😬 My client just closed on a multimillion-dollar home. 🏡💰
During escrow, we hired a pool specialist who literally put on scuba gear to inspect the pool 🤿
The main issue was a broken pool heater, which we negotiated.
Closing happens, keys are handed over 🔑, & my buyer decides to keep the seller’s pool cleaner 🫧
Day 1 of service:
🫧 Pool guy: “Nice, looks like you filled the pool all the way up! Did they ever fix that leak?”
😳 Buyer: “…What leak?”
🫧 Pool guy: “Oh, yeah. The previous owners always kept the water line a few inches low so it wouldn’t leak.”
🤯 The previous owner didn’t disclose it.
🤿 The specialist with dive gear missed it because the pool was intentionally slightly below full.
🫧 But the $150/month pool guy blew the entire cover-up wide open in 30 seconds.
👀 Always talk to the vendors who previously maintained the house.
What’s your first phone call/move here?
