Hip Happenings: Float SA

by

Cinco de mayo-6

Floating, and not like floating on the Comal or the Guadalupe rivers is quite the experience. The floating we’re referring to here is a relaxing, sensory depravation experience that has just recently been brought to San Antonio. Float SA, off of Fredericksburg Road, opened in Novemeber and has been gaining more attention and followers with the services they offer. Float therapy involves  a cabin or pod like large bathing pool with an extremely high concentration of epsom salt, creating a bouyancy like that of the Dead Sea, and your entire body effortlessly floats when you enter the water. Soft music and lights fade in a few minutes and with zero stimulation you come to a place of ultimate relaxation. In a world where people are constantly bombarded with lights, sounds, smells and the hustle and bustle of everyday life, float therapy was refreshing and unlike anything we have ever experienced. This new age mediation, can relieve physical aliments such as neck and back pressure, and is wonderful for your skin, along with the obvious mental and spiritual benefits it offers.

Part of your float therapy experience includes a 15 minute trip to their planetarium like massage chair room and hot tea and refreshments in the float lounge. Float SA also offers massage therapy if you wish to add that to your services. If you are interested check out the Float website below. Let us know what you think about floating and keep checking back for more hip happenings in San Antonio and beyond.

celebrating success

     It is with much pride that Becker Properties announces that all the hard work of our very own Ryan Gonzales has paid off & he has received his broker’s license.  This is not an achievement to be taken lightly as it requires a great amount of time & determination.  After earning his bachelor’s degree in business management from Texas A&M University at San Antonio, Ryan decided to pursue the field of real estate.  Since joining Becker Properties in 2013 he graduated Becker Properties Broker Academy in 2015 & was named 2016 Salesperson of the year.  Ryan firmly believes knowledge is power, so in addition to continually pursuing opportunities to further his education in real estate he also strives to make sure his clients are educated on the home buying and selling process. Becoming a recent homeowner himself has led him to go the extra mile and partner with trusted & knowledgeable lenders, insurance brokers & other industry professionals to educate his clients on all the ins and outs of real estate transactions from the moment they start to consider buying or selling a home.  His passion for people is apparent in every transaction in which he plays a role.  Not only does Ryan care deeply for his clients but for his community as a whole.  He is actively involved in the Slangin’ Foundation & its numerous service projects across the city.  Whether it’s a fundraiser or painting cabinets at a home in need of repair, you can find Ryan in the middle of the action.  The future is bright for Ryan, as he will hang his brokers license at the new, second location of Becker Properties.  There he will train up the next generation of real estate agents helping them to develop their passion & pursue their success in this ever growing, ever changing industry.

 
Congratulations to you, Ryan Gonzales, BROKER!  We are thrilled to celebrate you & your achievement!  We are excited to be a part of your continued growth, development, & success.  Most importantly, we are honored to call you a member of the BP family!

Hip Happenings: Cinco de Mayo

by

 

Cinco de mayo-2

Cinco de Mayo is tomorrow! Do you have plans to celebrate or go out with friends and family?

If you are unfamiliar with the holiday, you may ask yourself what are we celebrating on May 5th? Some people think Cinco de Mayo is Mexico’s Independence Day but this is inaccurate. Cinco de Mayo is actually the day to commemorate the underdog Mexican Army’s victory over the invading French forces led by Napoleon III, at the Battle of Puebla, in Mexico on May 5, 1862.  The Mexican Army had a fraction of the amount of soldiers that the French Army did and the unexpected victory, with relatively few Mexican casualties, really boosted the Mexican morale. This surprising defeat of a very powerful nation called for celebration then and the holiday continues to be celebrated today.

San Antonio is rich in Mexican culture and we can all appreciation great food, great fun and a reason to celebrate with one another. The downtown Market Square area is a great hotspot for Cinco de Mayo festivities. We encourage all of our friends and family to have a great time this upcoming weekend as the warmer weather heats up the city and we at Becker Properties remind you to party responsibly!

Happy Cinco de Mayo to all!

The downtown area is a great place to live, work and party year round! Click the link below to see what available in downtown SA!
