Fun For Kids In Schlitterbahn Waterpark New Braunfels Texas

Fun For Kids In New Braunfels, Texas

- Schlitterbahn Water Park

Schlitterbahn, one of the world's largest waterparks is a family-owned and -operated company based in New Braunfels, Texas. Schlitterbahn began its first park, Schlitterbahn Waterpark Resort, in 1979. Since then, Schlitterbahn has developed two waterparks located in Texas - the west side, which is the "old part", and the east side.

Schlitterbahn Waterparks in New Braunfels are summer seasonal water parks. They typically operate from late April to mid-September. It is situated along the banks of the slow-moving Comal River, which is incorporated into some of its rides.

Schlitterbahn has been rated the #1 waterpark in the U.S. for several years. There is a reason why it keeps earning this rank. It is a great place for families to visit and get relief from the Texas heat. It is a wonderful, fun place for multi-age levels because every area of each park has rides and attractions for all ages.

For the younger children

For small children who have not started walking yet, or have just begun to walk, they will love Schatze’s Central Park. It has lots of shade for mom and water features like a mini car wash, super small slides, and water-sprinkling surprises that pop right out of the ground!

The preschool age group may want to stick with the parks' six shallow-water playgrounds.

Hansel and Gretel's Great Forest caters to the smallest kids with short, padded water slides, shallow water, and non-skid walkways - Of course, supervised by certified lifeguards.

Kinderhaven is a shallow water playground that features a miniature pirate ship with slides and water cannons. Others places are Kiddie Park, Kiddie Coast, and the Butterfly Bayou which are great areas for kids who are more active, mobile, and want to splash and slide.

For the older children

Older children can enjoy the majority of Schlitterbahn’s rides, slides, tube chutes, and rivers. There is no lap-riding, but you can find an available tube with a bottom to use in rivers and chutes.

They should find the castles that make up much of the park's architecture something to behold! Rides appropriate for older kids who aren't afraid of rough water and sudden short drops include the Raging River Tube Chute, which takes you on a twisting, mile-long journey in a tube before ending with a splash in the Comal River, and the Hillside Tube Chute, an 800-foot ride from a castle to a lagoon through a tunnel. Brave 8 year old kids may want to try the Master Blaster. It is a water coaster that features 60-foot hills and valleys. They might also want to try the Schlittercoaster, the park's fastest ride.

Things You Should Know Before Selling Your Home

Things You Should Know Before SELLING Your Home

What's your Home Value? - check it here!

Find Out What Your Home is Worth

When beginning the process of selling your home, it is always best to start with knowing its current value. Several points affect your home’s value, such as:

location - close to the beach?, downtown?
upgrades - hardwood floors?, stainless appliances?
neighborhood - singles?, family-friendly?, amenities such as a community pool or walking trails?
asking price - too high?, too low which will raise questions of why?
seasons - near a major holiday? mid-summer?

What is your home value? What is your home worth?

An experienced Realtor will be able to explain to you your home’s current value AND how you can go about increasing that value, sometimes with some very easy steps! Some points are out of your control, but others can be easily corrected.

Pricing

The price is not always right. Price is not always the determining factor when accepting an offer. The initial offer is usually not final, and there are a number of terms and conditions that may influence the final outcome of a price. You can trust The Loding Group to help you thoroughly evaluate every proposal without compromising your marketing position.

When Should You Sell?

Talk with your realtor to thoroughly review current New Braunfels Real Estate market conditions and find the most favorable time to sell. After helping you to develop a firm understanding, your realtor can craft unique seller solutions based on your particular situation. Whether you’re looking to sell quickly or you have no pressing need to sell immediately, Dawn Loding can help you make strategic and timely decisions.

Choosing the Right Realtor

Selling your home can be so stressful. When you hire a top real estate agent to help sell your home, you eliminate most of the stress.

How will you go about finding the Realtor who will get you the most money for your home and get it sold quickly?

You must select an experienced real estate agent. While all agents are licensed to perform the same function, only an agent with experience really knows what works and what doesn’t.

One important factor in choosing a real estate professional is their education in the real estate industry. Your agent should have advanced training and education.

Your agent should be prompt and capable of decisive action during the course of selling your property. Your agent should make it a point to keep in touch with you constantly, should be easily contacted in case of emergencies or even for the simplest questions, and must be available on the weekends or in the evenings when most buyers are out looking.

Your agent should take the time to listen to your goals and clarify your needs, understand your unique situation and be genuinely concerned about the outcome of the process. Your listing agent will be your guide and partner in this crucial decision, so it is important to find one with whom you can get along.

You get to choose your Realtor and when you do, you need to make sure that Realtor has a great marketing plan! Only about 10% of all the real estate agents in each realty office do about 80% of the business for both the seller and buyer sides. So while there are many, many realtors in the area, you want the one who is most successful in getting houses sold quickly and at the highest profit margin.

2881 Good Luck Road Seguin Texas 9 Acres Land Only $105K

Looking for a great deal on beautiful, undeveloped property? The Loding Group has just listed 9 acres at 2881 Good Luck Road in Seguin for only $105,000!

This wooded property consists of the back nine acres of a 14-acre plot, currently in the process of being subdivided. A thick wall of vegetation offers privacy from the street view.

Seguin is convenient to many other cities and towns

Seguin is conveniently located Interstate 10 and Highway 90 in South Central Texas, perfectly situated within easy driving distance of San Antonio, Austin, Houston, Corpus Christi, and Dallas.

The new 130 toll road makes commuting quick and easy

According to the Seguin Chamber of Commerce, future growth for the city of Seguin will be positively impacted by the completion of State Highway 130. This toll corridor parallels Interstate 35 from Austin to San Antonio, bisecting Interstate 10 approximately five miles east of downtown. The highway routes commercial traffic through town and sends a revived influx of domestic traffic through Seguin as well.

Statue of Juan Seguin downtown

Seguin is one of the oldest towns in Texas, and with this property, you can own a piece of its rich history. In 1838, just two years after the victory at San Jacinto, a group of Texas Rangers organized a settlement. They chose a site among live oaks above springs that fed the Guadalupe River. The town was named for Juan Seguin, a Tejano patriot.

Water flows over the dam in Seguin

Settlers arrived from the Old South, bringing many African slaves. Later, thousands of German immigrants came to the area, as well as folks from Switzerland, Poland, Austria and France. For a century, the town’s prosperity came from the surrounding farms and pastures. In 1930, the nearby Darst Field set off an oil boom. In the past half century, new manufacturing jobs have attracted many newcomers to this growing community. Two major employers in Seguin are Caterpillar and Continental Automotive.

You can always find a festival or parade in Seguin!

Living in Seguin also offers lots of recreational activities. Texas loves a festival, and Seguin schedules many! Fiestas Juan Seguin, Freedoom Fiesta, Fiestas Patrias, and Pecan Fest Heritage Days only name a few.
