Frank, I see you are a Realtor asking, so here is the official rule in the MLS Rules & Regulations: 1.4 Change of Price/Status of Listing: Any change in listed price or other change in a listing contract shall be made only when authorized in writing by the seller or lessor and shall be broker-loaded or filed with Multiple within three (3) days after notice is received by the listing participant; provided, however, the listed price may only be changed while the listing is in Active status. Each change in price must be authorized in writing by the seller and specify the date of the change and the new list price. Once an offer has been accepted the listed price should not be changed unless the contract has been terminated and the listing status is changed back to Active.

It does not, unless it has been converted to living/air-conditioned space and it has been updated in the records or noted on the listing.

Best advice I've heard regarding moving in a long time - Always schedule your move early (first if possible). By the end of the day, the movers are tired and sore from lifting all day!!

Great question! Every homeowner will have their own showing preferences. It will vary from listing to listing. Some will want prior notice, and some are able to be shown at the drop of a hat...or call to the showing service. Let us know how to help you more specifically!

Robert, I'll break it down easy for you...call HAR at 713-629-1900 and ask for Member Services. They will hook you up!

Always better to be safe than sorry! Yes, do contact your HOA for their policy. If you need help locating your HOA info, I'm happy to help!

Any listing agent can his/her seller up with a "MarketInsight" report which can provide site traffic. It's easy to do. I can only assume that is what your post is referring to. If not, you know where to reach me! ;)

Everyone gave good responses to your question. Let me point out one thing about buying and your first payment. The date you actually close will determine how far out your first payment will be. For example, if you were to close on a home in mid-July, your first mortgage payment would not need to be due until September 1st. Many buyers don't realize this and find it helpful when going from renting to buying. Nobody likes to have a double-payment!!

You should also consider applying for TRLP (Texas Realtors Leadership Program). I learned so much info that has helped my business from all angles...from buyers, sellers, to being a better person in the community. Everyone wins with TRLP!

I always do the walk-through with the buyers regardless of the leaseback. I do tell them that since the leaseback is in place, we are just looking to make sure there is not damage to the home prior to closing. Also, I make sure to go over the terms of the leaseback prior to this walk-through and explain that the home has to be delivered in the same condition at the end of the leaseback. It basically just lets the buyers feel more comfortable.
