Winter Storm Headed to Brazos Valley

With the winter storm on its way, the nice folks over at BTUtilities sent me the following message today and most of the information should apply to College Station Utility customers as well.

The 7-day forecast from KBTX shows that it will be warming up to above freezing on Wednesday & Thursday.  Weather.com shows that we will have rain/wintry mix tonight & tomorrow.  Check the school website or Facebook pages or go to KBTX for a list of closings. It is not mentioned but your should drip your faucets inside & out, and keep the cabinets open under sinks to prevent frozen pipes.  Make sure your animals are protected from the freezing temperatures as well.

Bryan Texas Utilities Customers Should Prepare For Winter Storm

 BRYAN, TEXAS – Bryan Texas Utilities is preparing customers for what actions to take should they experience an outage during the winter storm that is anticipated to hit Monday night (Jan. 15, 2018).

If an outage occurs during these especially cold temperatures, customers are asked to take the following steps to help BTU crews restore power as quickly and safely as possible.

  • Turn off your heater: If your heater immediately kicks back on after a cold-weather outage, the amount of electricity required to turn it on can cause the system to shut down again. Wait 15-30 minutes after power is restored to start turning your heater and appliances back on. This includes space heaters, which require a large amount of electricity.
  • Conserve: Avoid using your heater and appliances at the same time. Put off running dishwashers, washers, and dryers unless absolutely needed and turn off any extra lights you do not need.
  • Utilize the BTU outage map: In the event of an outage, your meter will tell BTU System Operators that there is a problem, so there is no need to call. This also allows BTU Operators to focus on helping the linemen restore power.

Customers are encouraged to follow BTU on Facebook (@BryanTexasUtilities) and Twitter (@BTU_BryanTX) for timely updates and information.

 

Stay Warm and Safe!

Our Rental Market Report 10-2017

Attention investors looking for rentals in the College Station/Bryan, TX areas.  I’ll try to keep you informed about trends and cash flow opportunities.  Keep your eye on the College Station market because the Texas A&M area is still ‘RENTAL MARKET SUPREME!’  Texas A&M University has posted a record enrollment of 68,625 students for the fall 2017 semester, remaining the largest university in Texas and among the national leaders. Click here for important enrollment stats  for investors.   Parents of students can invest in local housing and reduce the cost of college expenses for their kids.  I want to talk to you about how to get it done and save money. Don’t put this off if you have kids here in College Station or plan to in the future.   Contact Myke Leatham, Realtor/Broker of Brazos County Realty, LLC  Office phone:  979-693-0201 for full access to the entire Multiple Listing Service for the Brazos and surrounding counties.  Let me know what else I can do to help make your searching for property investment opportunities a little bit easier.

Here’s an example of a good investment.  Upscale duplex  located within 10 minutes of Blinn and TAMU with 3 bed and 3 bath on each side.  Your student lives in one bedroom and leases out the rest to roommates to make the mortgage payment.  With 25% down on a 30 yr mortgage ($69,975),  your mortgage would be $209,925 and your payment would be approximately $1,053.53.  Rents in the B/CS area right now are between $400 and $600/month.  So, worse case scenario at $400/month/bedroom, if your child were living in one of the rooms, your cash flow would be approximately  $546.47 and your child would have free housing and you would be making money instead of losing it.  :-).  Sell when your child graduates and you make money again.  Worse case scenario you break even, and you win again.  Your child gets FREE HOUSING! Call me.

I’m always here if you need me.
