Dear friends,

There are few things I love more than creating long-term relationships with real estate agents and brokers who support home buyers and sellers right here in Central Texas. At the top of my long list of favorite working relationships are Tara and Craig McGuire of the McGuire Team at Bramlett Residential Real Estate. Check out the latest episode of Under the Roof with me, Randy Barfield, below, for a great conversation with Tara and Craig about home inspections, partnering as husband-and-wife in business, and the market in and around Austin.

We understand the home inspection process can raise a lot of questions: What condition is the home in? What does that mean? How much will that cost? While each home is unique, we apply a standard, thorough approach to ensure each home inspection is conducted as meticulously as possible to give home owners peace of mind for one of the largest purchase decisions they will make in a lifetime. Be sure to give us a call for all your inspection needs.

Contact us today at 512-350-0123 or visit our website to schedule your inspection. Take good care out there, and I hope to see you at an inspection soon,

Randy

Tara and Craig McGuire join Randy and Ashley in the podcast studio to discuss all things real estate and home inspection in Austin this spring! From curb appeal dotted with whale tongue agave and desert willows, to the team’s decades long background in realty and real estate finance, Tara and Craig share what they’re seeing in the market. The group deep dives into the ways the COVID-19 pandemic changed home inspection philosophy and exemplified the value of the pre-inspection. Randy shares his vision for when a buyer should join in on the inspection process, and the group discusses the importance of everyone’s favorite reading material: The home inspection report!

Randy’s Home Maintenance Checklist

The work to keep a home running does not stop when the inspection is complete. We always like to say, “If it moves, it needs maintenance,” and that applies to nearly everything in a home from the ground up, to the roof down.

Check out Randy’s recommended home maintenance schedule to help stay on top of the TLC your home needs regularly to save time, money, and heartache down the line. Visit our blog to learn more.

Sustainable Lawn Care

Care and upkeep requirements can be sky high with conventional lawns—watering, mowing, treating with powerful chemicals—which take time and money, not to mention a toll on the environment.

Consider transitioning your landscape to one that requires less while promoting biodiversity and conserving water as we head into summer. Inspiration from Better Homes and Gardens.
