  A restaurant review of Cici’s Pizza?  Yes, that’s right.  Hey, if you read my previous review of a local restaurant here in Coppell you know by now that I am not a food critic by any means.  But I was thinking that the bistros, cafes, and fine dining establishments throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth area get write ups all of the time, so how about the local franchise in a community getting kudos once in awhile.  So Cici’s Pizza, this one’s for you! Scattered throughout the Metroplex you see them everywhere, but the one I am speaking of today is about a stone throw from my office on Sandy Lake Road here in Coppell: Cici's Pizza, 120 S. Denton Tap, Coppell, TX 75019  A lot of times during the week, I try to include errands during my lunch hour, i.e. trip to the bank, dry cleaners, etc.  S...

  A message our office hears quite a bit is "work smarter, not harder" - along with that I think (especially in these current times), "spend smarter" is equally as important. With that said, I stumbled into a site around a month ago http://www.synthasite.com/ which provides "free" websites, that's right I said "free".  No ads, no pop-ups, a free website, and hosting that you can use with an exisiting domain that you purchased or on it's own.  If you use it without a domain your website would be "yourname.synthasite.com" We recently created a "virtual office" with a *.info domain I purchased for $1.99. Also I created an agent site and pointed it to his *.com that he purchased for $9.99. Why use SynthaSite? 100% FREE - No Hidden Fees No Ads, No Banners - It's Your Website! Customize Your...

Cafe Portobello 110 W. Sandy Lake Road Coppell, Texas 75019 http://www.cafeportobello.com/ (972)-462-1055 or (972)-462-1215 Allow me to begin by saying that by no means am I qualified to be a restaurant critic and, that I don't know the owners or any of the staff at this establishment. I am just a regular guy trying to make a living who knows when he likes something.  So with that said, let me try to tell you a little bit about this restaurant. My first encounter there was for an office luncheon.  Being half Italian, I have an obligatory fondness of excellent Italian Food (notice I didn't say cuisine because that is not how I speak, so I am not going to type it!) LOL  But to borrow a common phrase, "it's like Grandma used to make!" The restaurant is well staffed and they are friendly a...

It is great when Fall finally comes. August's heat is our trade off for mild winters.  Fall's pleasant weather stretches all the way up to Christmas sometimes in our area.  It is our opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. Since I have an outdoors-loving kid, we often head down to the local creeks and woods.  He loves to pick up sticks, throw rocks in the water and generally just wade through any mud available. This creek is in Coppell, on the north side of town.  We were short on rain in June and July, but lately have made up for it and most local creeks are flowing nicely.  It is so pleasant to just sit and listen to the water rushing over the rocks.  I am looking forward to plenty more of this great fall weather, although it is drizzling rain today. I am sure the grass appreciates it, bu...

After many years in real estate, I have seen and worked in many a different variety.  From the one's that were fast paced, high energy, and even sometimes offices that seemed to be divided into neighborhoods if you will.  Of course these were the types that were ever changing, due to a regular flow of incoming agents and outgoing ones for a variety of reasons. But back then, what did I care.  I was focused on being productive and it didn't really matter "where" I worked, as I was in business for myself and I was determined to succeed "on my own!"  I was determined not to allow any ancillary obstacles get in my way. At my present office as Broker I along with my staff decided from day one to attempt to provide an environment that most would like and make their own.  Now I will admit tha...

Coppell RON BASELICE/Staff PhotographerParticipants in the Walkabout for Autism are reflected in a duck pond at Andrew Brown Jr. Community Park in Coppell. Coppell is a residential suburb north of Dallas, between Irving and Lewisville. In recent years it has ranked among the top 10 "Best Places to Live" in North Texas, according to D Magazine, and recently was the fifth-fastest-growing city in the metro area. History: Although Coppell is a relatively new city (incorporated in 1955), its roots can be traced back to the early 1880s. Transportation has played a key role in the history of Coppell. The Cotton Belt Railroad (part of the St. Louis and Southwestern Texas Railroad) established the Gibbs Station in the community in 1889, providing needed transportation for the area's farmers. Th...

Wondering what "new" construction might be coming to Coppell, Texas? Everyone says we are "built out", but it appears that the city has actually approved several areas for new home contruction! One developement is on the southeast corner of Denton Tap and Sandy Lake. The second development is on the corner of Denton Tap and Bethel Road. Not much is happening yet, but there will be more news to come!Thanks for reading! Please let me know if I can can help you "Make Your Lone Star Dreams Come True!"

For months now many home buyers and sellers in the DFW area have called and asked me about the market.  On the national news and newspapers they constantly hear about how poorly the Real Estate market is doing.  Unlike most of the rest of the country, the Dallas market never experienced a bubble.  What does this mean? Simply put, no bubble-no bust.  The DFW market has maintained its steady appreciation (3% to 6% average) currently and for the past several years.  One of my main markets (Coppell, TX) actually is experiencing a sellers market right now.  What makes a market a seller's market?  A Seller's market is when the average days on market is less than 56 days.  A balanced market is between 56-58 days...One thing we all need to remember is that Real Estate is very local.  Even withi...
