The IHOP site at Cesar Chavez & I-35 was FINALLY sold at auction today. World Class Holdings ran out of legal challenges. From the ABJ:
https://t.co/Hs3SzBJmRY
"Years after it was first set to hit foreclosure auction, downtown Austin’s IHOP property was purchased by Travis County Exchange Corp. for just over $12.7 million.

World Class Holdings, which owned the property through its WC 707 Cesar Chavez LLC entity, successfully delayed foreclosure of the land for years. Cesar Rainey Street LLC has attempted to foreclose on the site multiple times since purchasing a $2.7 million loan for the property in 2020. On May 5, the site was finally sold in an auction at the Travis County Courthouse.

The buyer is an Austin-based 1031 exchange company led by Craig and Lauren Dunagan, according to TCEC's website.

World Class Holdings CEO Nate Paul was in attendance at the auction but was unavailable for comment and did not respond to an emailed request for comment."

Our Founder & CEO Alan Graham is getting in on the sweetness this April! If you spend a little time with him, it won't take long to see that he never passes up a Chick-fil-A Chocolate Chunk Cookie.

From April 1–30, Chick-fil-A will donate 30% of sales (before tax) from every individual Chocolate Chunk Cookie and 6-pack purchased at participating Austin locations to MLF. It’s more than a treat—it’s a small act that contributes to restoration, dignity and community for our neighbors!

We’re grateful for partners like Chick-fil-A who help turn everyday moments into opportunities to serve and support our community.

Visit https://t.co/zPjdxIV0IL to see a list of participating locations!

In Austin, Michael Dell’s son aims to transform the home power business by selling electricity and backup battery power like a Costco membership. Pretty attractive especially if you lived through “snovid” in Texas.

Love this! At 100 years old, this Maryland Realtor is still selling homes and closing deals at bridge games.
