  Happy Labor Day 2014 from Cedar Park, REALTOR® Bob Ratliff   Labor Day was promoted by the Central Labor Union and the Knights of Labor, who organized the first parade in New York City. After the Hay-market Massacre, which occurred in Chicago on May 4, 1886, U.S. President Grover Cleveland feared that commemorating Labor Day on May 1 could become an opportunity to commemorate the affair. Thus, in 1887, it was established as an official holiday in September to support the Labor Day that the Knights favored. (information gathered through Wikipedia). Labor Day has become an important sale weekend for many retailers in the United States so pack your patience and be kind to others.   If you know of someone looking to sell or buy real estate in Cedar Park or Leander I work most holidays and... 08/31/2014

What to expect when building a new house. After the visiting the design center, so much happened. We go every 2 days and looked carefully at all the changes and to make sure all was what we expected. First, they scraped the lot. Most of the trees were junipers in poor condition. They left a few that weren't in the way of the house plan. This view is looking from front to back. There will not be a house behind us. Then they framed the foundation. The plumbing piping was set in and the foundation was poured. You can see the garage in the front with a swing-in entry from the right. At this point we identified what all the pipes went to. Yes, this is for the dishwasher and this for the master bath tub, etc. Here the process of framing has started and you can see the house taking shape. It's... 05/28/2014
