REALTOR SHOPTLIGHT: SHANNON BEAL When I was 10 years old, I started crafting a dollhouse for my Barbies out of a giant box. I colored wallpaper, made cardboard furniture, and even sewed little curtains and bed linens. That Christmas, my parents surprised me with the real Barbie dream house and my love affair with real estate began. I assembled that dream house, unassisted, in true move-up buyer fashion. My career in real estate began in 2003, when I started working at Wells Fargo Home Mortgage. In 2007, I transitioned from mortgage lending to escrow closing, working for North American Title. It was there that I learned the ins and outs of every type of real estate transaction and gained extensive knowledge not only of title, escrow, & settlement statements, but the processes involved with short sales, new construction, and foreclosures. I have a passion for connecting people with homes and strive to provide the highest level of communication and professionalism with all of my clients. I have a great handle on the technology required to market homes with the greatest exposure. I’m blessed to be able to work in a field I’m passionate about & I love sharing that passion with clients and the also the community that I’m proud to call home. Price Reduced!

HI, I’M JOE TAYLOR. Overton, Texas. What keeps me coming back to the Trail? It’s just absolutely sensational.

I have people tell me what they’ve spent playing one round at Pebble Beach and a night at the hotel, or going to Pinehurst for a couple rounds. We do the entire week, travel, hotel, green fees, good meals and everything for the price of one day at these places. And it’s absolutely a sensational place to come.
