Military Relocation
Welcome to Fort Hood, Texas, the largest active duty armored post in the United States. III Corps and Fort Hood units make up a third of the Army's combat strength. The installation covers a total of 339-square miles and is the only post in the United States capable of supporting two full armored divisions.
Approximately 41,000 active duty soldiers are stationed at Fort Hood, along with over 37,000 family members. Ft. Hood is a city unto itself but the surrounding cities revolve around the post. These communities include another 32,000 retirees, survivors, and their family members. Nearly 3,500 civilians are employed in the operation of the installation.
If Ft. Hood is bringing you to the Central Texas area, these web sites will be of interest to you.

Real Estate Contracts >Clean Contracts
"Clean" is a term that is often used to describe an offer on a house. A "clean" offer does not refer to the price of the house, but to the terms of the agreement. If you really want a particular house, the "cleaner" you can make your offer, the better.
What are the characteristics of a clean contract? A contract is considered "clean" when the buyers are paying cash or are clearly qualified for a mortgage, the sale isn't contingent on the sale of another home, the buyers don't ask the sellers to carry any of the financing, and if the closing date coincides with the sellers' needs. A clean contract doesn't have any unusual requests for repairs or insistence that certain articles convey that would not ordinarily stay in the house. A clean offer has an important competitive edge if you are offering less than full price or if you are in a situation where there is more than one offer on the property.
