@McDad I am assuming your kids have perused the public job listings for the big three? I added three more which I know are in the DFW. I searched my company and was kinda shocked how thin the mechanical listings are but we are booming on electrical and software openings which goes to what I remember

Thank you
 
Thank you
I sent a PM to freak with my contact info. Haven’t heard a peep but look those over and let me know if you have any questions. I am not a manager and do not have hiring authority but next week I’ll try to get some info on my company to you. I’m worried most people will be gone for end of year break.

Thank you. It's good just to have some fresh leads.

Hate Watercolor and seaside. Too damn crowded.


I like the food trucks and community feel of watercolor. It's ridiculous what the price per square ft there is though. I just don't see how its sustainable. I could be wrong but I just think that whole area will take a price crash eventually.

I just learned that 3 cottages, same size as mine, have sold in my neighborhood in the last month. In the 3 years since I bought this place, the price of these little beach houses have gone up about 60%. The real estate man told me that the price of ocean front lots is still quite a bit below what they were in approximately 2004. This area took a deep dive during the housing crisis. Low interest rates and a decent economy cause a surge in vacation home sales.


I think....maybe I am wrong.....thst you are further south of PCB and the pricing seems more realistic to what beach front should ho for right now. I think....

I was looking at a 1,600 sq ft bungalow not on the beach in seaside though and they wanted 3 million. I can get a very nice condo on the actual beach in destin for 900k. I can get a home within waking distance, same distance from beach and more sq ft for 750k in destin. I just don't see 1500 sq ft for 1.6 million and up sustainable but I could be wrong. I just see the prices evening out with destin eventually.

All that is out of my price range.
