ヒューストンのダウンタウンをドライブし美しい景色を見たことはありますか? 高速道路I-45S 、59N や、I-10 など、いろいろな経由でドライブできます。ダウンタウンの各建物には興味深い歴史があり、多くの建物は50年以上前に建築されたものです。 2022 年 9 月 8 日に女性不動産協会とともにヒューストンの歴史を学ぶために、スーザンはイベントを開催しました。約 40 人のメンバーとゲストがMr. McKinneyの主催する歴史を巡るバスツアーに参加しました。ツアー中にはあMr. McKinneyがガイドを勤め、ポスターや、建設の背後にある歴史を説明し、ダウンタウンの有名な建物の多くに関する興味深いトリビアなどで楽しませてくれました。スクールバスがオープンカーとなっている車を使い、自分んお好きな飲み物を持ち込むことも可能です!とても楽しい経験となりました。皆様にも是非お勧めします!このツアーの詳細については、以下のウェブサイトをご覧ください。 www.AboutMisterMcKinney.com
Have you ever driven towards downtown Houston and marveled at how beautiful our skyline is? I do it all the time and love every angle, coming towards it from I-45S, going right next to it on 59N, driving right into it on I-10. Each building downtown has an interesting story to it, and many of those buildings were built 50+ years ago. In order to learn some Houston history, Susan organized an event with the Women’s Council of Realtors on Sept 8, 2022. About 40 members and guests took a ride on the Mister McKinney’s Historic Bus Tour. On the tour, our guide Mr. McKinney showed posters of before and after, explained the history behind the construction, and shared some interesting trivia about many of the famous buildings downtown. He uses an open air school bus and people can bring on their own drinks. Everyone loved it and we also recommend it to you!

The Houston real estate market continues to soften. The lastest data shows us week 32 of 2022, from Aug 9-15. The number of new listings on the market went down 10.7% compared to the same week last year. This drop marks the third consecutive weekly decline. Not only did the number of new listings to the market decline, but the number of homes that went under contract also declined, by a very large 30%. The number of sellers who tried to sell their home but then pulled the home off the market because they could not sell them increased 13.7% from the same time last year. The number of closings were down nearly 20%, the number of showings was down 7.4%, and even the number of views on HAR.com went down by 33.8%. This tells us that the market has slowed way down. People are looking less, sellers are putting their homes on the market less, realtors are showing homes less, and homes are selling less. We think this might be a good chance for buyers to get back in to the market and try again to buy!
