This corona thing has slowed down some private construction projects, particularly home building, but we were building at a frantic pace. With the stimulus spending will now be faced w/ large, gov projects that will soak up talent & materials & drive costs up. #chrisboundsaust
Wow, 10 years ago you could not give away coastal property & foreclosures kept the lawyers busy. Now, the same attorneys are filing deeds, construction permits & zoning change requests for these same properties. It is great. Lots going on in Port A & Corpus. Labor shortage?
The entire City is Under Construction!!! Looks like Air B N B bringing more stuff to town. This is amazing. New hotel announced for east side. New roads, two new hospitals, new schools, new people ...yet same old retarded city council and mayor. https://t.co/Sd3lFpHRoh
Housing starts up again. More than expected. The numbers look great. Skilled labor pricing on the rise but so are wages = folks can buy bigger homes. Real Simple. Something happening here. Take time to read and understand the attached. https://t.co/AkEnTCNvji
Driftwood Bed and Breakfast would say "Merry Christmas" to all our former and future guests and "Thank You" for a fabulous 2017. We look forward to seeing you and your friends and family in 2018.
ok, some roads built by Romans over 2000 years ago are still in use. I recently walked down a sidewalk in Victoria, Texas, that was in perfect condition & had a 1928 stencil in it. Don't think we trust these new, fast pour, fast dry, tension slabs. Look at them in 35 years.
Wow, what a difference just one short year and a pro-business administration can make. Its changing lives. Hotel, motel and resort lodging permits and requests for permits are reaching record levels in many states and more, much more is anticipated.

Dripping Springs Looks like a Christmas is supposed to look. Quaint downtown area decorated with street lighting and all the shops have a Christmas theme and even the bars, taverns and dance halls boast Holiday Cheer. Come take a look.
In 1985 Mr T was the most popular "wrestler" and bikini clad ladies held the Round cards as he yelled about 'breaking is opponents in half"Now bikini clad young ladies wrestle in mud & transgenders hold the Round cards as the ladies yell they are tougher than any man?

South Padre Island!! The Tip of Texas. Just as far south as Miami & much safer & much less developed....which is why we all continue to hear rumors of large developments planned for the area...SpaceX, new refineries, hotels & resorts all being considered. https://t.co/XiZdLmhwdI
Was already a problem but given the natural disasters this year, skilled labor is getting expensive. All the guys that should be electricians, plumbers, framers & HVAC techs are instead working as wine salesman, uber drivers or bloggers for minimum wage

So you live in Iowa..why are you paying insurance to cover property damage on the gulf coast? Or, you live on the gulf coast..why are you paying insurance to cover earthquake damage in Nevada? Two Words. Federal Government.

Lumber prices soaring. Hurricanes have increased demand while fires have destroyed inventory while the entire economy is demanding more lumber. So prices up over 15 so far this year and forecasts say its going higher. Plan now.

I believe that to keep our economy growing & the country thriving we must do things in a NORMAL manner. Yes NORMAL. If shocked; you are the problem. Ask yourself...."is this how it was done in 1985" If the answer is no...then it is likely not good for the country.
