Bexar County Appraisal District (BCAD) and Incorrect Information

Mistakes in Bexar County tax records. In two separate cases this week, I have found mistakes made in the Bexar County Appraisal District’s records on San Antonio homes owned by my clients. Both mistakes could lead to trouble down the road for my clients if they chose to sell their homes, so I thought I [...]

San Antonio Real Estate and Internet Marketing

Your Home Here (and all over the internet too)! Sellers in the San Antonio real estate market ask the same question every time I speak with them; what about internet marketing? We all know the internet is king when it comes to marketing a home for sale and every real estate agent in San Antonio [...]

Review: Roosters in Stone Oak

Shave and A Haircut, Two Bits. Roosters Men’s Grooming Center is the gentlemanly thing to do. I didn’t need a haircut as badly as I do normally when I head to get it chopped, but I had bought a Groupon awhile back and it was about to expire, so I thought a good trim would [...]

Making RErockstar.com easier on the eyes.

Condensing the format. I’ve tried to decide whether or not to make the front page of the blog more short and concise for you, the readers. Sometimes, blog posts get lost on the front page because of the length of the other posts that precede them. In an effort to make the front page more [...]

Half Price Books and Helotes Humane Society

Help hungry pets. We all know the economy hasn’t been easy for a lot of people. Foreclosures and job losses affect pets too and as an animal lover, I’ve always tried to help animal shelters whenever possible. Donations, food drop offs, and getting all my pets over the years from shelters instead of pet shops, [...]

Farewell to Seesmic Video.

Seesmic is no longer. I used Seesmic to record quite a few videos (and even some comments here on the site) starting back in 2009. Since then, Seesmic shut down their video services and have focused on their desktop client instead. I emailed them (as they requested) so that they could process an archive of [...]

Review: Lemongrass Thai Restaurant

Delicious Thai in San Antonio It has been awhile since I have had any Thai food, but as I was heading to an appointment today and feeling a bit hungry, I spotted Lemongrass Thai Restaurant on my way north on US 281 (I believe it’s the old Martha’s location – next door to the Egg [...]

Happy Holidays – A Gift From RErockstar.com

Everyone Loves Presents. I wish I could be like Oprah and give everyone a brand new car, but I haven’t reached her heights (yet). In the giving spirit of the holiday season, I wanted to give you all a great gift, but didn’t know what size you wore. Plus, I know you’ll never wear the [...]
