Can anyone recommend based on personal experience a honest and reliable real estate broker? I need someone that will have the patience to help me find what I need.

Just went to carlos and gabbys. They just got a lunch special menu.  Great prices and tons of food.

Unless they changed their menu, I highly disagree.
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

Anyone else got their tax bill. 10%  increase.  :(
I got 8% increase in first year of owning the house..
Do they do that without even looking at the house?
Is it based on purchase price?

Nothing to do with looking at the house. My house is assessed the same this year as it was last year but the rates went up.

You don't like the lunch menu?
I think the actual regular menu is absolutely terrible.
There's like 46,284 items on the menu, and they all have a funny, non-descriptive name.

So you're reading names like "Mexican Explosion", where you have to check out the ingredients of each item to see what you're getting.
After like 10 minutes I got through like 2 pages and gave up 1/4 of the way through.

Went to Entree for dinner last night. Food was amazing, service fairly decent, ambiance... well there were 2 birthday parties and some other small party, too much noise and too many kids. Overall experience was nice. Total around $140
