What is Viray?
VIRAY is a business my wife and I started in honor of my late parents Raymond and Viola Coleman. They lived in south Midland (Texas) all of their lives.
The population in south Midland is mostly made up of minorities, and this part of town has not enjoyed the boom in Midland to the extent the rest of the city has. There are many abandoned and neglected properties on this side of town, and city code enforcement here seems a little lax.
My parents left us some rental property, and we were getting lots of calls from folks looking for properties to rent.
So we got the idea to fix up these rental properties, as well as other neglected properties, and sell them to folks at reasonable and affordable prices.
We have been buying properties that no-one else wants, cleaning and remodelling them, and selling to people who would otherwise never have been able to buy a house. This, we feel, is something my parents would have been proud of.
We have our South Central Midland home under contract. We received and accepted an offer two weeks ago on this house.
It is being sold to a young couple with kids who have been looking for an affordable house for some time. Our realtor says they insisted on a property with a fenced back yard, which this house offers.
It's a great feeling ing know that we are helping turn apartment renters into home owners.
