The Pearland Oilers football team beat the Clear Lake Falcons 42-17.  The game was a very close battle until the 4th quarter.  Pearland running back Casey Carrier rushed for three touchdowns.  Pearland quarterback Sam Allen also played well. He hooked up with wide receiver Kevin Miller for two touchdowns and efficiently directed the offense.  The Pearland Oiler defense allowed more points this game than it has all year.  But it was the defense that turned the game for the Oilers with key plays throughout the game. The Pearland Oilers play Brazoswood on Oct. 5, 2007 at 7:00PM at the Rig.  Go Oilers www.danfrankrealty.com

In 2007, Forbes Magazine ranked Pearland as the 34th fastest growing suburb in the nation. It is therefore the fastest growing suburb in the Greater Houston area, and the 10th fastest growing in the state of Texas.I remember when Broadway was a two lane road growing up in Pearland. It has changed so much.Pearland had its humble beginnings near a siding switch on the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway in 1882. When a post office was established in 1893, the community was originally named Mark Belt. The name was changed to Pearland in November of that year because of the abundance of pear trees in the community. Pearland was promoted by some developers as an "agricultural Eden." The Galveston hurricane of 1900 destroyed most of the fruit trees and slowed growth for a considerable period ...

The naysayers in the news keep talking about how bad the real estate market is.  Well, I say phooey on them... The real estate market is very strong in Pearland and most of Brazoria county.  Our office is as busy as it has every been.  I found this article in the Brazoria County news paper called "The Facts"  I think all should take the time to read it.  http://thefacts.com/story.lasso?ewcd=dfc4997c718b236c  It would be nice to see the more GOOD stories about our local real estate market in the major news channels.Please visit my web site at www.danfrankrealty.com
