Foreclosures - Get The Details

Have you had a chance to delve deeply into the database of foreclosed properties on remax.com?

If you sign up for a free seven-day trial membership, you have access to detailed information about any property in which you're interested. This includes:

Property Details - Square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, year built, estimated market value, foreclosure information, and auction date and location (if applicable).

Lien & Loan History - Amount owed on the mortgage or mortgages, lender's name, owner's name, date and amount of prior sales.

Comparable Sales - Sale price and other basic information on homes recently sold in the same area.

Trends - Estimates of the home's value month by month from 2007 to now, average sale price in the ZIP code throughout the past two years , and foreclosure activity in the ZIP code this year.

This is a tremendous amount of information. It can certainly help you evaluate whether to pursue a possible purchase and how much to offer.

All this data can be overwhelming, though - especially if you haven't purchased a foreclosure before. That's where I can help. I can interpret and analyze the data for you and provide guidance as you move forward.

I can help you contrast and compare properties, and maybe uncover that hidden gem that you might have otherwise missed. Equally as important, I can steer you away from properties that might be more trouble than they're worth.

When it comes time to make an offer, I'll help you arrive at a price that works for you and one that is likely to be accepted.

There has rarely been a better time to buy a home. Give me a call and I'll work hard to find you the right home at the right price.

Foreclosure, Short Sale, REO

First, foreclosed properties are not all the same. When homeowners

default on mortgage payments, there are three possible outcomes

involving the sale of the home. (A fourth possibility is that the

homeowner pays off the default amount of the loan, thereby keeping

the house.) As a buyer, you can be involved at any of these stages:


1. After defaulting on the mortgage, the owner sells the home

during a grace period determined by state law. This is known as

the pre-foreclosure period.


2. The property is sold at public auction at the end of the pre-

foreclosure period.


3. The lender (or a government agency such as HUD) takes

possession of the home with the intent of selling it on the open

market. These properties are known as REOs (Real Estate

Owned by the lender or the government).


I can help you purchase a home at these stages:


Pre-Foreclosure

You and I would work directly with the owner or a listing agent. You

have time to research the title and condition of the property and

structure an offer that reflects the property and market conditions.


The lender will sometimes agree to a short sale - meaning the home

sells for less than the homeowner owes on the mortgage. This option

better preserves the homeowner's credit, and the lender generally

suffers a smaller loss than in a foreclosure.


REOs

The lender/owner will typically have cleared the title and performed

basic repairs and maintenance. You may not get quite as good a price

at this stage as you would have earlier. In the case of HUD homes -

which involve defaults of FHA or VA-backed mortgages - we would be

working with an agent who lists all or most of the HUD homes in your

area.


I hope you've found this information useful. Please give me a call and

I'll be glad to answer any other questions you have about buying a

foreclosure or pre-foreclosure. And if the time comes when you're

ready to move forward with a purchase, I'd be honored to represent

you.

Test Your Home Maintenance IQ

Knowing how to maintain your home is an essiential part of protecting your investment. Regular maintenance now can prevent huge expenditures in the future.

Here is a quick rundown of the most common home maintenance misconceptions.

Noisy pipes are just house settling, nothing to worry about.
FALSE: The underlying cause of noisy pipes could be associated with viberations that loosen fittings and cause costly leaks.

Use salt during winter weather for traction on walkways.
FALSE: Salt can actually cause unsightly damage to pavement. Opt for kiyy litter or sand to do the trick without marring the pavement.

Hot water aids the breakdown of debris through the garbage disposal.
FALSE: Avoid clogs by using cold water during garbage disposal operation to solidify and flush greasy waste.

Run ceiling fans in the summer only to keep cool.
FALSE: In the winter, ceiling fans aid heating by circulating warm air that accumulates near the ceiling. For maximum efficiency, run ceiling fans clofckwise in the winter and counterclockwise in the summer.

Call me when you're ready to buy or sell. I can guide you through the complexities of real estate.

Breathe Easier

Poor air quality in the home can cause respiratory damage and aggrevate allergies and asthma. Preventive action and vigilance are the keys to keeping your air safe and clean.

Common appliances and home furnishing can negatively impact air quality. Today, more buyers are requesting air quality studies before sealing the deal. Increase air quality and protect the value of your home by knowing the threats. Be vigilant about these major enemies to air quality.

Radon: Odorless, colorless gas that, over time, can increase the risk of lung cancer. Test air regularly with testing kits and immediately address the root cause.

Carbon Monoxide: Poisoning from carbon monoxide gas can have fatal results. Appliances that burn gas, propane, fuel oil or wood release carbon monoxide. Install carbon monoxide detectives to monitor levels and keep your home well ventilated.

Formaldehyde vapor Pressed wood products like cabinetry and furniture using formaldehyde-based resins can cause irritation and are a suspected cancer-causing agent. Reduce the effects by keeping the temperature in your home below 80 degrees farenheit and opt for phenol resin products.

Asbestos: Inhaling asbestos fibers can cause serious respiratory illness. Call a professional to repair or replace asbestos-containing elements.

Buying A Heat Efficient Home

Drafty windows and poor insulation can significantly drive up the price of homeownership.

DON'T BURN A HOLE IN YOUR POCKET

Pay attention to the heating and cooling capacity of a prospective property to avoid getting burned by high energy bills. Call the utility company for an estimate of typical energy usage as a guide. Aside from apparent issues, like drafts, here are some less obvious things to consider.

High ceiling and multi-level dwellings force your heating and cooling system to work harder to regulate tempertaures.

Seek out advanced control systems that allow you to isolate temperature settings by room or time of day.

Vents located under windows or large rooms lacking vents increase heating and cooling bills if not property addressed.

Check for drafts around doors, windows electrical outlets and fireplaces. Address drafts immediately and reap energy savings of up to 30% per year.

My skills and experience can help you recognize costly details in your new home. If you're ready to by, call me!

Decorating For Holidays

Keep the holidays safe. Electrical or fire hazards lurking in your holiday lights can turn celebration to tragedy.


Safe holiday decorating will prevent you from being one of the 12,500 people in the emergency room each holiday season from falls, shocks and burns stemming from holiday decorating. Enjoy the season in style and with safety in mind using these lighting tips.

Inspect lights for cracked sockets, frayed, loose or bare wires or loose connections. Before replacing light bulbs or fuses, unplug light strings.

Don't string together more than three sets of lights into one extension cord.

Ourdoor lights should be plugged into a GFCI circuit. Never run lights through water, across driveways or sidewalks.

Make sure lights carry the "Underwriters Laboratories Approved" or "UL Listed" label for safety certification.

Have a safe and joyous holiday season. I look forward to serving your real estate needs in the future.

Flooring Choices

Carefully consider the type of flooring you select for each room in your home. Make choices based on room size, health concerns, traffic, and value. Certain flooring choices can increase allergens, require expensive cleanings, or costly remodeling to implement. Consider these flooring tips when selecting flooring:
Room size: Select light colored or large patterned flooring in smaller rooms to create the illusion of space.

Traffic: High traffic areas like kitchens and entryways benefit from the durability and easy cleaning of tile or laminate flooring. Maintain warmth and comfort in the bedroom and family room with carpeting.

Health: Avoid wall-to-wall carpeting if you are plagued by respiratory problems or severe allergies. Wood and tile floors are less likely to harbor dust and pollen.

Value: Because it's also considered a major piece of the decorating canvas, flooring value fluctuates with interior decorating needs. Today, hardwood floors are considered high-demand. Consider interior decorating magazines to find out what's hot now.

Installing new flooring can bring new vitality and energy to a room. Smart flooring choices can increase the overall value of your home and level of enjoyment for your family.

Picture This

74% of homebuyers who used the web to search for homes drove by or viewed a home they saw online. Listings lacking a photo, or using low quality photos, run the risk of being passed over. Incorporating new venues, like virtual tours, give buyers a view of the property right from their desk. Here are some tips to increase the face value of your home's online listing photo:

Crop out sidewalks, streets, and remove vehicles from the driveway.
Steer clear of the shade, and get up-close or angled photos.

For exterior shots, make sure the kid's toys are put away and remove evidence of pets.

For interior shots, integrate floral arrangements and make the most of interior and natural lighting to highlight interesting features in each room.

If you decide to include a virtual tour, incorporate music or commentary to stimulate interest.

Ready To Buy?

Ask yourself these questions to decide if you're ready to take the homeownership plunge.

Have you researched the market? Knowing what homes are selling for in the area can help you determine how much you should plan to spend.

Do you have sufficient savings to cover down payment and closing costs? Expect to have 3% - 20% of the sale price in the bank to cover your down payment, plus another 2% - 7% to cover closing costs.

Do you know how much home you can afford? A mortgage payment should not exceed 25% of your gross monthly earnings. A home that sucks up more than a quarter of your income may lead to financial difficulties.

Is your cred report accurate? Inaccuracies on a credit report can cost you higher interest rates. Request your credit report from all three nationwide credit bureaus and report mistakes immediately.

If you answered yes to all these questions - you-re ready! Let me help you find your dream home!

Buy With Selling In Mind

Most buyers will sell thir homes within 5 - 10 years due to expanding families, job transfers, or other factors. Keep an eye out for features that will fetch top dollar in any housing market. Here are a few features to look for:




Look to the view: Homes with an unencumbered view of nature or city lights sell higer than comparable homes without a view.



The more the merrier: Demand for homes with three or more bedrooms and at least two bathrooms is greatest.



Busy landscaping: Avoid property that is over-landscaped. The money you'll invest to keep it up may outweigh the impact on property value.



Pool profits: A pool can yield hours of family fun but don't expect it to increase resale value. The expensive upkeep and safety issues regarding young children and pools may reduce the number of interested buyers at resale.



Let my experience help you find the right home for you, now AND later.

Investment Financing

Finding the right lender can make all the difference when it comes to an investment purchase. Because the loan terms are more complicated than a conventional purchase, most investors opt to only work with those lenders who specialize in non-owner-occupied investment real estate.

What Your Remodeling Contract Should Say

What Your Remodeling Contract Should Say
By: Oliver Marks

Published: September 30, 2009

Review your remodeling contract carefully and adjust it to make sure it protects you in terms of payments, work schedules, and project specifications.

Added to Binder.
Unless the contractor signs the document, it doesn’t matter what it says—it’s not a valid contract.

Even if you never intend to pick up a hammer for your remodeling project, there’s one tool that’s absolutely essential—a solid contract. But just having one often isn’t enough. That’s because the document a contractor gives you is designed to protect him. It’s up to you to add in some basic protections for yourself. Here’s what you need to know to make sure the remodeling contract you sign includes solid legal protection for you and your home.


Hiring a lawyer to review and make changes to a contract is a safe bet, especially since each state has its own construction-contract statutes. But not many homeowners are willing to shell out $500 for an attorney review, plus $1,000 to $1,500 additional fees to make wholesale revisions to a flawed contract. However, you can hand-write changes and additions in plain English and make sure both you and the contractor initial each change to the document, says Tampa, Fla., attorney George Meyer, who is chair-elect of the American Bar Association’s Forum on the Construction Industry. Here’s what you want to add (and subtract).

Project specs
Start by reviewing your contract, a process that should take several hours. The most important element of a contract is a thorough and complete description of the project, and the materials and the products that will be used. “It should say that the contractor will secure all necessary permits and approvals as well as what walls are being moved where, what type of countertops are going in, what type of sink, what type of faucet, and so forth,” says Meyer. “You can’t rely on everyone’s memory because if there’s a problem later, people may remember different things.” The contract needn’t contain these specs on its pages, it can simply refer to the contractor’s attached itemized bid. Avoid allowances, which are pools of money set aside for work to be determined later, and which often lead to cost overruns.

Payment schedule
The contract should also state the total price for the job, and that it’s a fixed price—not an estimate. It should provide a schedule of how the payments will be made by linking them to milestones in the work—such as when the foundation, rough plumbing, and electricity will be completed—so you’re paying for work only after it’s done. “You should always have enough money left to hire someone else to finish the work if need be,” says Meyer. In general, the first payment should be no more than 10% of the total job and the final payment should be at least a few thousand dollars to ensure that it’s a big enough incentive to get the contractor back for the final niggling details. If you’re unsure whether the payment schedule is proportional to the milestones your contractor suggests, ask a friend who’s familiar with construction process or consult a construction attorney.

Start and end dates
A contractor’s boilerplate contract rarely includes dates for when he will begin work and when he will complete the job, so make sure those details are included. It’s not that he’ll be penalized if it runs late, only that if you ever have a major problem and need to sue him—or defend yourself from a suit he brings—showing that the contractor is, say, two months behind schedule will help you make your case. The dates needn’t be too exacting. If he says it’s a six to eight week job, eight or even nine weeks is fine for the contract, says Meyer.

Statement about change orders
Make sure the contract contains a line stating that any changes that will affect the cost of the job must be priced in writing and countersigned by both the contractor and homeowner before that work commences. That ensures that an offhand discussion about a possible change to the project won’t result in a huge unforeseen additional cost. It also helps you, as the homeowner, keep track of exactly how much you’ve added to the bottom line, so you can avoid the very common urge to keep expanding the job.

Binding arbitration
Many contractors include a line that says that rather than going through the courts, disputes will be resolved by an arbitrator. Some legal experts feel that this is a quicker and lower-cost solution to problems, so a binding arbitration clause isn’t necessarily a problem. What can be trouble is if the contract requires a specific arbitrator. “There are some big, national, well-respected arbitrators, like the American Arbitration Association,” says Meyer. “And there are other questionable arbitrators that always side with the contractor. If a particular arbitrator is specified, I’d do some internet research about the agency to make sure it’s legit.”

Warranty
Having the contractor’s warranty in the contract seems like a good thing, right? Well including it is often actually a technique for limiting how much liability the contractor has. “It’s usually loaded up with exclusions and time limits,” says Meyer, “and you’re actually better off with no mention of warranty at all because then the only limits on his warranty are what’s in the state statutes.” In other words, keeping the contractor’s warranty language in the contract will likely mean you’re agreeing to less than what state law provides. For example, state law may specify a longer warranty term than what the contractor’s warranty offers. So, unless you’re having a lawyer review the contract, strike the warranty clause.

Technicalities
There are numerous state-by-state requirements for construction contracts. He may have to include his contractor’s license number, for example, and he may have to include a clause saying you have the right to rescind the contract within a certain time period after signing. And unless you and the contractor sign the document, it doesn’t matter what it says—it’s not a valid contract.

A former carpenter and newspaper reporter, Oliver Marks has been writing about home improvements for 16 years. He’s currently restoring his second fixer-upper with a mix of big hired projects and small do-it-himself jobs.

Shoot For The Moon

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.” Les Brown

That’s good advice for space travel. And it could encourage an actor to continue their rehearsals until they make it to Carnegie Hall. However it’s not a proven strategy for buying real estate.

As a homebuyer your question might be: “How will I know how much to offer?”

Who will help you decide? Does a home seller or their listing agent worry about you getting a good deal on your purchase? “NO!” The seller and the seller's agent are concerned primarily about their interests, not yours.

My customers have benefited from my attending to their concerns. You can, too. When we work together I will work to make sure you find the right home for your needs and wants. And then we’ll work to get the most acceptable pricing and financing package, too.

I encourage you to visit my website at @SmartAssignedToWebURL@ where you can become familiar with homes for sale, home sales prices, and the most important market and neighborhood information. You can even begin your search for your new home with the dream home finder. See something you like? You can schedule a showing. Now is the time to visit.

Don't risk driving by the home of your dreams. Call upon me to find your home for you.

Finding your new home is a process. It’s a journey. It is not an event.

I ought to know. As a RE/MAX sales associate I have helped dozens of buyers like you to find their way to their new home. The process starts with sorting out what you think you want. Knowing your style preference, your location demands, and your trade-offs. As you learn more about what you're looking for, you'll have more questions about whether what you want exists. And more importantly, where to find it!

You may feel that you are just beginning your search. You are still in the 'information gathering' phase. If that’s the case, be sure to visit my website at http://dallaschambers.agentsrealty.com.

Be sure to use my dream home finder. It will help you determine what you’re looking for and will ensure that you’ll get to see the homes that are worth your time. And be sure to view the recent home sales in the areas you prefer. Consider the demographics and maps for your favorite neighborhoods.

In the course of your house-hunting adventure, I'd like you to remember one thing. I'm always available to answer any questions you may have. Call me first and we'll continue the search, together. To find your new home we’ll use my experience, and your input. We’ll both know it when you’ve found your home!

Dreams

“Dreams come true; without that possibility nature would not incite us to have them.” John Updike

Have you met a house you liked? That may sound funny to you. But the longer I'm in the business, the more I find that homes have personalities. To really get to know a home, you need some background. You need a proper introduction to the area, the neighborhood, the features, the amenities, and even some of the challenges. Visit my website at @SmartAssignedToWebURL@ to get an early introduction to your new home. Be sure to check out the dream home finder.

In the meantime, as you search my website for homes, if there are homes on the market that you would like to 'meet', you can go ahead and schedule a showing. I'll look forward to making an introduction. Call me if you need me.

I'm a professional introducer. I've seen and know hundreds of homes, so as we clarify what you prefer it's easier to find a match. When you see the right home, there will be a reaction. You'll know the right home when you see it, right? That may be the time when your dreams come to life!

Closing Table

With all the hard work and effort involved in the home-buying process, no step is more stressful than closing the deal. Our clients are always surprised at the overwhelming amount of paperwork they’re presented with at the table. Combine that with the pressure of making the biggest transaction of your life, and it’s no wonder many closings go awry.

That’s why I should go over any and all of your issues before we even approach the closing stage. Why put yourself in a position to fail? Call or email me and let’s work together to make closing time a success!

The Benefits Of Owning Your Home

One of the biggest misconceptions my clients have about homeownership is that the financial burden of a mortgage will be too much to continue the lifestyle to which they’ve become accustomed. Why, they ask, should I bother with such an enormous sacrifice?

The answer is that the relatively low interest rates of today’s market combined with the numerous tax and equity benefits of homeownership are only a couple of the rewards of an investment in real estate. As your personal real estate expert, it’s my job to explain the many benefits of being a homeowner. Call or email me for a free consultation.

Considered by many to be the embodiment of the American Dream, buying one’s first home is an exciting but stressful experience. From choosing the right property to financing under the best possible terms, homeownership can be downright intimidating.

Why go it alone? As your personal real estate expert, I can answer any questions, big or small, day or night. After navigating many first-time buyers through the process, I’m confident that I can do the same for you.

It’s been said the longest journey begins with a single step. Call or email me and we’ll take that step together.

Choosing A Lender

Nowadays you can find a mortgage lender just about anywhere you look. However, each individual lender has its own particular strengths and weaknesses, usually tailored to a specific market demographic. They might even push a client into a loan that doesn’t necessarily fit their needs.

I take pride in working closely with my clients to secure the best possible loan program for their purchase, without compromising any of their long-term financial goals. Give me an opportunity to show you what I can do, and I pledge to find you a lender who will fulfill all your mortgage needs.

Before you take the plunge and start shopping for your new home, it’s imperative that you develop a list of your needs and wants. While ideally it would be nice to find the perfect property that fulfills all your desires, the fact of the matter is that in today’s competitive market, it’s important to prioritize exactly what you’re looking for in a home.

Home Inspections and Warranties

While buying a home may seem like a dream come true, it can quickly turn into a nightmare if you don’t have adequate warranties to insure your purchase. In my experience, the price of a homeowner’s warranty is less than you may expect, and sometimes we may even get the seller to pay for it!

As your real estate professional, getting you into the right property isn’t enough for me. I want to make sure you remain happy in your home for many years to come. Call or email me and I can help you better understand warranties and other aspects of homeownership.

Don't Be Fooled

If you’re like most buyers, you’ve probably found yourself inquiring about these much-advertised ‘rock-bottom’ niche lending programs with incredibly low interest rates. What those commercials don’t advertise are the conditional terms of these rates. While any lender can simply offer a seemingly low interest rate, most of these programs will end up costing you in other facets of the loan, whether it’s closing costs, increased mortgage liability, or any number of hidden fees.

Don’t be fooled by these high-risk mortgage products. Call or email me and I can help you make the right choices.

Get Pre-Approved

With so much competition in the marketplace today, it’s imperative that you position yourself to be as attractive as possible to a seller. The best way to do that is to obtain a pre-approval letter from your lender stating that you have been approved for a home loan. Not only will this save you time later on, but it will help you gain an advantage over other buyers as well.

Before we find the right home for you, let’s make sure we cover our bases by getting you pre-approved for the loan. With one phone call or email, I can help you get started. Contact me today!

Whenever new clients ask me how I’ve become so successful in real estate, my answer is simple: gossip. I’ve been fortunate enough to build my client base by providing my clients with exceptional service in the hopes they will gossip about my quality of service to their friends and family.

I invite you to ask any of my past clients about the level of service I provide, and I’m confident they’ll give me a great recommendation. Once you talk to them, call or email me and let me take care of all your real estate needs!

I consider all the names on my list to be my secret weapon.

Who's The Boss?

In many regions throughout the country, real estate law states that a licensed agent may represent either party in any transaction, and in some cases both parties or neither party. In addition, full disclosure of dual agency qualifies the agent for compensation on either side of the transaction...

...confused yet?

Countless closings have been adjourned by clients who were unaware of the compensation due to the real estate agents, simply because the agent didn’t take the time to thoroughly explain the many types of agency at work in any real estate transaction. Call or email me and I’d be happy to explore the many ways in which I can assist you in your purchase.

If you’ve caught yourself making such comments as “I thought we got rid of that stuff years ago…” and “Where are we going to put all this?”, you’ve likely found yourself in the same predicament as most homeowners during their move to a new home.

Hidden Ownership Costs

When considering the cost of owning your new home, it's a good idea to look at the total cost of ownership, including mortgage, taxes, hazard insurance, HOA dues and other fees. Since you no longer require the same amount of space as in the past, it’s also critical to get a handle on the cost early in the home-buying process to make sure you know exactly what you’re paying for.

You Already Have A Friend

Schools, License Plates and More

Perhaps the nicest thing about living in one place for a long time is developing a comfortable daily routine. When you relocate, however, that comfort can quickly become anxiety over establishing a new routine. Details such as the nearest library, the quickest route to school and other often-overlooked information can really make your transition more efficient.

As your full-service real estate professional, it’s my job to provide you answers to questions such as these. If you need some help making your new house into a home, call or email me today!

One of the more difficult aspects of relocating is parting with loved ones. But thanks to today’s instant-message culture, it’s easy to stay in touch with those you left behind.

Let's Take A Stroll

Often times buyers will research a potential community that they’re considering moving to by looking at pictures on the internet or looking into the various nightlife and entertainment facilities in the area. In my experience, however, nothing beats hitting the pavement and taking a tour of the neighborhood. After all, if you intend on living in the area, it’s best to get a feel for it in person rather than thorough pictures or websites.

We should set up a mutually convenient time to discuss other ways in which I can assist in meeting your relocation needs. Call or email me today!

Fantasy Island

Among the most unique pieces of real estate in the U.S., the Isle Royale on Lake Superior stretches over 45 miles long and 9 miles wide. Accessible only by boat or float plane and with not one road on the island, Isle Royale also serves as a seasonal sanctuary for animals to migrate to and from the land when Lake Superior freezes over during the harsh winter months. Because of its many uses, environmentalists consider the Isle the most precious piece of land in the lower 48 states.

Affordable Homes

Recent census information suggests that many Americans cannot afford to pay for their homes, with Westerners the least likely to be able to afford their mortgage payment. In fact, 7 out of 10 Westerners cannot afford to buy a median priced home in their respective market. More than half of Midwesterners, on the other hand, live in the most affordable homes, due in part to a lower cost of living and less housing appreciation.

Strangely enough, both the highest and lowest places in the continental United States are so close that if you stand on one point, you can easily see the other.

They're Making More

Will Rogers once remarked that land was a good investment because they weren’t making any more. Obviously, Mr. Rogers never met the Dutch, who, since the 1930s, have reclaimed over a half million acres of land from the sea through the construction of an elaborate system of dikes, seawalls, and pumps. Despite their best efforts, however, their hold on the land remains precarious, since even a slight rise in sea level could be disastrous.

With more than 5 million visitors a year, California's Spanish missions remain one of the state's most popular tourist attractions. Despite being a core element in the curriculum of schools throughout the state, most people are still unaware that 19 of the 21 missions are funded not by the state but by charitable donations for their maintenance. So if you're in the mood to appreciate some historical real estate design, go visit your nearest California mission.

Earthquake-Proof Homes

In the event you're caught inside a house during an earthquake, it's best if the house is supported by steel frames, right? Wrong! Recent studies have shown that in areas of substantial seismic activity, straw bale construction holds up better than any other type of structure. With its combination of strength and durability, straw bale homes are better equipped to absorb the shock of an earthquake than more traditionally rigid building materials.

Drilling For Oil

Contrary to popular belief, the U.S. is one of the largest oil-producing nations in the world, with an average daily production of around 8 million barrels. But because the production comes from around 533,000 wells scattered from Alaska to Louisiana, the average oil well produces just under 17 barrels per day. So next time you're using your gas-powered stovetop in your home, remember how much work went into that meal!
