Teresa Johnson's Son Pictured

The New Braunfels Unicorns were edged by defending champ Katy in the Semi-Finals last Saturday. This pic is from the week before after the Unicorns upset Brandeis to advance to the semis.

The tight end for the team is the son of Teresa Johnson from our New Braunfels office as he is pictured after making a vital first down catch late in the Brandeis game.

Platinum Top 50 at the Dominion

Prudential Don Johnson brought home the gold, or should we say Platinum, at the annual Platinum Top 50 Award ceremony at the Dominion Country Club. Two of our esteemed agents were finalists, Dianne Thomas of Canyon Lake and Toyal Ohlrich of New Braunfels.

Toya Ohlrich was further honored as a Platinum Top 50 award winner. Congratulations to Toya and Dianne for the well deserved recognition.

Pictured below is Dianne Thomas, Larry Coker (keynote speaker), Brian Johnson, and Platinum Top 50 winner, Toya Ohlrich.

Special Asset Management Update

I listened to the taped version of the Prudential Broker Alliance Management call this morning. According to the call, the earliest we are now looking for possibly getting assignments is in the middle of January. They are one of three finalists for a government contract that would yield approx. 3500 expedited short sales. It is my understanding that most of these involve properties where an effort has already been or currently involved in an effort to modify the loan (keep the owner in the property.)The second government contract is not as far a long and again involves a competitive process that SAM is involved in. They also mentioned another negotiation with a lender that probably will not involve Texas properties.

There are additional training modules - just in time training and training for short sales. They do not take long and everyone who has signed up should go to the PREA center and make sure they are current on all SAM training modules.
