The multi-million dollar lease, signed with Louisiana-based Wind Energy Systems Technologies (W.E.S.T.), allows work to begin immediately on the construction of two meteorological towers. These towers will help gather data to determine exactly where the 150 MW wind energy development will be built on an 11,355-acre lease about seven miles off the coast of Galveston. Revenue from the agreement - expected to be at least $26.5 million - will be deposited in the state's Permanent School Fund, which helps pay for public education. See additional information below.

Pool, Spa, Tennis Court, Outdoor BBQ Pit, and so much more!!! $1,499,990 Looking for a new home in Las Vegas? ALWAYS TAKE YOUR OWN AGENT !! You've decided that you want to look at new homes around Las Vegas. So you grab the Sunday paper with its handy reference map, jump into your car and start driving around the city looking at the new home tracts, right? WRONG!!! This is a common mistake that could cost you thousands of dollars and a lot of peace of mind! Unless you are a contractor in Las Vegas, it is unlikely that you will know the builders as we do. New home or resale, you should always have your own agent - it costs you NOTHING! But you must take your own agent with you on your first visit into the new homes sales office. • We know each builder's quality . Not only do we see those beautiful professionally decorated models, we know whose workmanship lasts through time. • We know which builders are the most cooperative when it comes to making changes on your new home. • We know who has the best customer service if there is a problem. Even new construction can have minor defects which will remain undiscovered until you've lived in the home a while. A builder who comes in and makes these corrections promptly is priceless! • If there are any special buyer incentives we will know about them first ! The Las Vegas new homes builders actually advertise to real estate agents because they want us to show you their homes. But if you come into the development by yourself, they have no need to offer you an incentive. And the tract agents work for the builder. They won't mention any special promotions if they don't have to. • We will look over all contracts before you sign them and make sure there are no "red flags" in them. • We will help you obtain the best financing . Quite often the new home builders will offer an incentive of $500 to $5,000 if you use "their" lender. Depending on the interest rate charged and other "garbage fees" put into the loan, this may or may not be lower than what you may find elsewhere. • We will assist you with lot selection . Location is crucial and we know how to pick the best lots. • We will recommend professional home inspectors to check out the structure before we close escrow, and we will be there to do your final walk-through with the builder. We know what is acceptable workmanship and what is not. • We will also save you lots of time . We have a complete database of all the new homes in the Las Vegas and their floor plans! We can eliminate unwanted features without driving all over the valley! And you get all this help for free! The builder, by law , cannot sell the home any cheaper to you if you come in without your own agent. But if you do, the tract may refuse to allow you to bring back your own agent later. So resist the impulse to "shop" without us, we're there to help you and we can save you money when you are buying a new home in Las Vegas!

Whether buying real property to start or relocate a new business, or solely for investment purposes, you can take certain steps to protect your investment. Together, a title insurance policy and survey can protect you from many of the risks. Title Insurance A title insurance policy insures the status of the title to a parcel of real property. Simply put, title means the formal right of ownership of property. While most insurance policies insure against unforeseen future risks, title insurance insures against possible defects in title based on events that have already happened. A title insurance policy may be an owners policy, issued to the purchaser of real property, or a lenders policy, issued in favor of the lender that finances the purchase. An owners policy provides for reimbursement of damages suffered by an owner as a result of title being different than that stated in the title insurance policy. Reimbursement is available up to the stated amount of the title insurance policy. Title insurance also covers attorneys fees and other costs of any covered claim. A lender financing a real property purchase almost always will require the purchaser to obtain and pay for a lenders policy of title insurance. Among other things, a lenders policy insures the lender has a valid, enforceable lien on the purchased property, and that the lien has priority over any other lien. A lenders policy should not be relied upon to protect the purchaser in case of a title defect. Most standard real estate purchase agreements require the seller to pay for and provide the purchaser with a commitment from a title insurance company to provide title insurance. The preparation of that commitment involves a search of the public records to determine the status of title. This process can take a title company a few days or a few weeks, depending on the complexity of the propertys title history. A title insurance commitment is the insurers proposal regarding the terms of the policy. To some extent, these terms are negotiable. The commitment includes the legal description of the property, its fee owner, the proposed insured party, and any exclusions from coverage. A title insurance commitment typically excludes coverage for liens, easements, or mortgages already recorded in the public records, as well as any facts - such as encroachments and roadways - that would be revealed by a survey. The purchaser, rather than the seller, typically pays the one-time premium for an owners policy. This responsibility may be negotiated between the parties. The premium is based on the purchase price. An owners title insurance policy provides coverage throughout the insureds ownership of the property. If it later is conveyed by warranty deed, coverage continues (for the insured party, not to the new buyer) even after the property is conveyed. Survey A property survey is the process by which a parcel of land is measured, and its boundaries and contents ascertained and mapped. The finished product of a survey most often is a scaled drawing that illustrates locations of buildings, fences, streets and other improvements in relation to property lines. A survey assists the parties to a real estate transaction in understanding exactly the property included in the transaction. In Wisconsin, only a professional land surveyor licensed by the states Department of Regulation & Licensing may perform a survey. The cost depends on the characteristics of the area to be surveyed, including the parcel size and level of detail required by the transaction. From the buyers perspective, the purchase agreement should make the obligation to purchase contingent upon an A.L.T.A.(American Land Title Association) survey by a registered land surveyor, with the results acceptable to the purchaser. The purchase agreement also should state who will pay for the survey. It should be ordered early in the purchasing process to allow sufficient time for completion. Obtaining the survey early also will leave time to deal with title defects or other issues the survey may reveal. To remove the title insurance policy exclusion regarding facts ascertainable by a survey, a recent survey performed by a registered land surveyor must be presented to the title insurer, along with the surveyors certificate of no encroachments. An encroachment occurs when a building or other improvement to a parcel of real estate overlaps the boundary line and encroaches onto a neighboring land parcel, or when a neighboring improvement overlaps onto the insured property. Therefore, unless a survey is obtained and the survey exclusion is deleted, a title insurance policy alone does not protect a purchaser if an encroachment is later discovered. The title insurance commitment and survey should be examined by the purchasers attorney well in advance of closing to allow time to work out any title issues and to negotiate the terms of the title insurance policy. The bottom line: A comprehensive title insurance policy and survey protects the buyer from undiscovered title issues and minimizes risk in a real estate purchase.
