Tom Talks Episode 104:Hi and welcome to this week's episode of Tom Talks! In this podcast, we are going to be talking about a unique hotel going up in Weatherford, an RV park of the future, a real estate market update, a crazy story involving fraud and investors, and a solution to Dallas's bad drivers!A new hotel is going up in Weatherford, Texas! The hotel will contrast Weatherford's more subdued atmosphere by being vibrant and artsy like Fremont Street in Las Vegas. Despite initial skepticism, the proposal by the Hotel Group specializing in Container Hotels suggests a unique 16-room boutique hotel with a bar, coffee bar, restaurant, event space, courtyard, and private pool. The hope is to transform it beyond a hotel into a communal space, accessible to the public, aiming to make it a central gathering place in downtown Weatherford.Your ideal RV park sounds like a dream, and it's great to see that places like The Campers Hub in Montrose, Colorado, are bringing some of those elements to life. With essential features like reliable internet, a co-working space for remote work, and amenities such as restrooms, showers, and laundry, it caters to the needs of long-term RV residents. The addition of a communal pool, pagodas for food setups, and a central green space creates a sense of community, offering a unique blend of comfort and social interaction for those looking to make their RV stay more than just a night's rest.Recently emerging in Dallas, the fraud group known as Nonbond Ventures, operating under the guise of a trustworthy friend (nonbond meaning friend in Tamil), has faced an SEC restraining order for allegedly committing fraud against hundreds, specifically targeting Indian-Americans in communal communities. Despite their friendly facade, the trio started as IT professionals with no investment experience, evolving from a friends and family hedge fund to an investor Advisory Group, ultimately orchestrating a $130 million Ponzi scheme through a questionable option trading strategy called GK strategies.Next up on the podcast, we give you a market update! If you look at the North Texas MLS, the average sales price has experienced a 1.3% decrease, which aligns with expectations after a peculiar year with an initial spike followed by a significant slowdown.

Tom Talks Episode 103:On this week's episode of Tom Talks, we go over some interesting stories including a white supremacy group that was found casually eating at a local well-known establishment, a way to spot a fake home before buying it, some dirt on Fort Worth ISD, why home buying is becoming more costly, and the nicest and most recorded bathrooms. This past weekend at Torchs Tacos in Fort Worth, there was a bit of an incident involving a white supremacy group. Listen as we dive into this unfortunate event. Next up we highlight potential red flags in a home-buying scam scenario. The example involves a seemingly attractive deal on a house, where the buyer ends up wiring money, signing a contract, and later discovering that the property was never for sale. The identified scams include fake ownership, too-good-to-be-true deals, manipulation of earnest money, and wire fraud, emphasizing the importance of due diligence and verification in real estate transactions.Texas is considering legislation for an Education Savings Account (ESA), an annual proposal by Governor Abbott. The ESA would allocate a portion of public school funding, around $88,000 per family, for use in alternative education options such as charter schools or homeschooling. However, the proposal faces challenges and limited support from both Democrats and Republicans, as there are existing limitations on diverting public school funding to private schools in Texas.We dive into why home buying may become more expensive! Imagine working with clients in a competitive housing market, where after weeks of searching and missing out on one house, they finally find a perfect one. However, a broken sewer pipe dispute during inspections causes the deal to fall through. As you help them find another suitable home, a new challenge arises when the listing mentions a realtor commission that the buyers need to cover, adding financial strain to an already complex process. Don't miss out on this topic!In our final segment, we delve into the arrest of Buc-ee's co-founder!

Tom Talks Episode 102:We kick off this week's podcast on the topic of Lime scooters. Lime scooters made a bold return to the DFW area, particularly in Plano, with the release of a fleet of 40 E-scooters. Despite past challenges in 2019, including the impact of COVID-19 and regulatory issues, Lime is aiming to deploy 250 scooters in Plano alone. The company faced problems like scooters being misused and thrown into undesirable locations. To test the waters, Lime is running a pilot program in Arlington, focusing on the UTA campus. The hope is that these changes will mark a successful comeback for Lime in the region.Next up we start a discussion about illegal immigrants, particularly those from Venezuela, highlighting the challenges and complexities of their situation. Contrary to common assumptions, many end up in major cities like New York and, surprisingly, Houston in Texas. The tracking of illegal immigrant populations in cities is a complex task, involving estimates based on factors like income and money flow. The story prompts consideration of the unexpected destinations and circumstances these individuals face as they navigate a new life in the United States.In a unique approach to lawn maintenance, we explore the concept of "goatscaping," where goats are employed to naturally trim overgrown yards instead of using traditional lawn equipment. We ponder whether this practice qualifies as vegan, as the animals are not only utilized but also contribute to a more humane and eco-friendly alternative. There is a significant upcoming project where over 60 goats from Goatscaping LLC partnered with the city of Fort Worth to clear out a 2-acre area in Anderson Park.Next, we discuss the concept of using Big Mac prices as a more accurate indicator of real inflation than official government figures. By examining the cost of a Big Mac, which involves various industries and market conditions, the hosts argue that it provides a more comprehensive view of the economy. Drawing comparisons between official inflation numbers and the increase in Big Mac prices since the pandemic, they express concerns about a potential recession, emphasizing the importance of monitoring economic indicators for industries like real estate.Denton initially banned short-term rentals, but after legal challenges, they allowed them with registration, inspection, and taxes. However, the compliance rate was low, prompting Denton to consider hiring a team to find unregistered Airbnb properties. Even those in compliant mixed-use areas may now face additional regulations, reflecting a struggle between the need for oversight and the challenges of implementation in the short-term rental market.To stay in the loop for upcoming episodes of Tom Talks and our weekly videos covering all things real estate in the DFW areas, be sure to subscribe to our channel!Time Codes:00:00 Intro01:32 You put the lime in the Metroplex and shake it all up07:16 Where do all the illegals go? 15:08 Lawn Care goats 19:00 Big Macs never lie 26:09 Dog the Airbnb hunterFollow us on social media!TiktokInstagramFacebookYouTubeContact Us!If you are thinking about buying or selling a house, we would love to help you!If you have any questions about real estate, investing, or the Dallas-Fort Worth area, don't hesitate to reach out!tomstexasrealty.com
