I consider you indeed among the "best of the best
"Now that the closing has taken place and all is done, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for the high level of professionalism you exhibited representing us in the sale of our condo at the Corral in Breckenridge. From the day you presented us with the marketing plan that you had created and we discussed the opportunities and preferred timing of a sale, you distinguished yourself from the other realtors Anne and I interviewed. Your counsel as to pricing versus timing of sale was right on, and the net price we received represented a more than acceptable payback, considering the monthly costs of carrying the unit, since we didn't rent it out. Susan, I would be entirely comfortable in recommending you and your agency to anyone seeking to buy or sell property in Breckenridge. I consider you indeed among "the best of the best". With best regards,
Frank and Anne C., Allen, Texas

Zoning Laws >Remodeling and Permits
Obtaining the proper permits when remodeling can be a critical element in the process. Many homeowners are unaware of the local building codes and zoning laws governing renovations. Disregarding these laws may result in fines, and in some cases you may even be asked to demolish the work that has been done.
When remodeling you have to go through the process of obtaining the proper permits. Zoning laws protect homeowners and cover issues such as the size of setbacks (distance between buildings and property lines), the height of buildings and occupancy. State and local building codes deal primarily with life and safety issues (insulation, smoke detectors, plumbing, electrical wiring, etc.) In order to satisfy these regulations you must submit information showing the project complies with the laws.
When plans do not conform they are sent to the Zoning Board of Appeals. There the homeowner, accompanied by an architect or attorney, presents his case at a public hearing. Usually the board tries to work with you in compromising with what you would like to do and what is best for the neighborhood.
