Wow! the weather warmed up fast and things seem to be thawed out. Now,  I'm getting eager for Spring, but I think that we have a little more time to go before we truly have spring weather.   I've included some great content for you this week - including a list of my favorite BBQ spots and my most recent video.   I hope that this week's newsletter finds you and your family well.  Looking forward to connecting with you soon.   -Matt Local Happenings Dallas Blooms: America the Beautiful at the Dallas Arboretum The first week of this series, featuring New England, ends this Friday. The second week starts Saturday and begins their feature of the Southwest. With events running all week, including the Blooms, Boots, and BBQ theme on Sunday, the Dallas Arboretum is a great place to spend this warm weather weekend. | Family  *Check weather forecast* Hike and Brew at Arbor Hills Following some fun ice-breaking games, and a 3-4 mile guided hike at Arbor Hills Nature Preserve, head to Union Bear Brewing Co. with the group to enjoy some great beer (or another beverage) and socialization! Kids are welcome as well but avoid bringing strollers. | Family   *Check weather forecast* Barefoot Nation at Legacy Hall Missing out on seeing your favorite artists in concert?

My Newest Video Shopping for a home can get confusing fast - like what do all these listing statuses mean anyways? Active kickout? Active Option Contract? Pending? I explain it all for you right here! I filmed this video to help you shop online more confidently. Matt's Market Minute Housing inventory has plummeted over the last year, resulting in a SUPER seller's market! This map below shows just how much inventory has changed across the country in the last year. Here in Texas, inventory has dropped by 44.5% compared to this time last year, which is very similar to the national average at a drop of 42.6%. What this means is that there are almost half as many houses on the market today as one year ago! If you are a homeowner, this means that there is HIGH demand for your home and a lot less competition.  For buyers, this is why you're seeing so many multiple offer situations!
