Buying property is one of the largest purchases and may be among the biggest decisions of your life. The first thing to do is to find an experienced Real Estate Agent you trust and someone that makes you feel comfortable. You need an agent that will respect and understand your needs. The real estate business is changing daily and it is important to have an agent that can give you every advantage in this new age of technology.

We can show and sell any listing, regardless of which real estate agent or real estate agency listed the property. We can even show and sell brand new constuction homes. The best part about it is we don't cost you anything, because even though we work for you, the buyer, the listing broker pays our commission.

Happy Mothers Day!

Hi Mom,

My Mother by Randy WatsonHappy Mother's Day! Sorry, I am unable to be with you today, but I will see you soon.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers Everywhere! I love you!

I hope all Mothers have a great day!

God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers. - Jewish Proverb


The sweetest sounds to mortals given
Are heard in Mother, Home, and Heaven.
~William Goldsmith Brown



M-O-T-H-E-R
"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell "MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.

Exploring Buda

Exploring Buda, Texas-Just 45 Minutes North of San Antonio

Mission Realty 210-319-4960

by Celia Hayes

Ornamented Store Front in Old Buda by Celia Hayes www.satxproperty.comWe didn't spend all of last weekend watching the wienerdogs run; the Buda City park where that event took place was pleasingly located right next to old down-town Buda, so when we had enough of wandering around between pavilions, we walked along the three or four blocks that constitute Buda ... and looked around. It's one of those sweet, small towns which retain enough of their original late 19th century buildings to be quite charming, even if those buildings mostly run along one side of the street ... because the railway runs alongside the other. Buda's town founding fathers set aside a 150-foot wide reserve of land between Main Street and the International and Great…

A Dog-Friendly List of San Antonio Condos for Sale

Check out my new San Antonio dog-friendly Condo list.

by Randy Watson

Hi, my name is Randy Watson and I am a self-confessed dog lover. I am also a real estate agent with Mission Realty, in San Antonio.

Dog Walk SignTexans love their dogs and cats... and here in San Antonio we are no exception. Dogs and cats are loved everywhere, except it gets a little tricky when it comes to buying real estate that accepts your pets. Especially when looking to buy: condominiums, townhomes and villas; since each may have its own rules and regulations regarding pets. Single family homes have fewer, if no restrictions regarding pets. (A word of caution, some HOA's, even towns/cities may have dog restrictions.)

Wiener Dog Races in Buda

The Running of the Wiener Dogs in Buda, Texas

by Celia Hayes

The audience on the edge of their seats in the final Wiener Dog heat by Celia Hayes www.satxproperty.comLet me say up front that we're still a little unsure of how to pronounce 'Buda' – although most of the people that we met there last weekend pronounced it 'B-yu-dah', which is fair enough. For those unfamiliar with the geography of South Texas, it is a once fairly independent and separate little community about an hour's drive north of San Antonio on IH-35, and close enough to Austin that it and the similar little community of Kyle are more or less bedroom slippers to Austin, as Boerne and Bulverde are now bedroom slippers to San Antonio.

A Dog Friendly Event by Celia Hayes www.satxproperty.comWe decided to go to support a friend who has a dachshund and who had a vendor booth for his bird feeders and ornamental lanterns, and because the…

Filled with Junk

“For Sale – Charming San Antonio 3 Bedroom Filled with Junk”


Women Freaking Out - Messy provided by www.hometowndumpsterrental.comWhile curb appeal is certainly important when it comes to selling a house, a cluttered home filled with junk is not going to sell very well, if at all. Decluttering a home significantly increases the chance it sells fast, and it offers you the best chance to get top dollar in the San Antonio real estate market.

Effective decluttering strategies include donating unused items, recycling, hiring a junk removal service or renting a roll off dumpster. Any real estate agent will tell you that a clean, well-organized home is far more appealing to potential buyers than one with junk occupying every nook and cranny.

Rent a Dumpster

Renting a roll off dumpster is the perfect way to…

Adventures in Home Canning

San Antonio Homes for Sale Mission Realty The Randy Watson Team 210-319-4960

by Celia Hayes

Pepper Corn Relish Ingredients by Celia Hayes www.satxproperty.comThis latest adventure in home food preparation was my daughter's notion, upon noting that the aisle in our local HEB set aside for housewares and appliances had a new section for home canning supplies; including a sort of starter kit for novices; a large light-weight enamel lidded kettle, with a rack and some implements to shift around the jars ... of which there were also a nice assortment in various sizes. I was certain that we had a huge canning kettle in the garage – a gift from a military friend who was moving to another state – but we couldn't readily find it, as the garage is stuffed with items that my daughter has bought for that residence of her own which she hopes to have one day. But we…

Ben Curtis Wins Texas Valero Open

On Sunday, Ben Curtis finishes victorious in the San Antonio golf world. This Texas Valero Open champion is rewarded with $1,116,000 from this PGA Tour and moves him to 28th in the FedExCup standings.

This was Curtis first start at the Texas Valero Open.

From pgatour.com Daily Wrap: "Holding off Matt Every and John Huh in a tense back-nine finish, Curtis finished with flourish by holing a 12-footer for birdie on the par-5 18th, sealing a two-stroke victory and his fourth PGA TOUR title. His even-par 72 put him at 9 under and triggered a wave of emotions that Curtis said he didn't know were in him."
