My New Blog

The housing industry has been the hot topic in the news for quite sometime now and apparently most people feel that it is only going to get worse; especially concerns regarding the costs of fuel.

So what is happening here in our rural area markets? I can speak specifically to what I am experiencing here in this market area. While many other Realtors have been experiencing a somewhat normal market for the past couple of years, I have found it relatively quiet for the past 18 months, until recently. I have been very busy as of late, more so than I have been in two years. I must say I find a great deal of relief in this activity.

The business consists of people relocating, selling their existing home and buying a new home, and of course first time home buyers. All this being said, it feels pretty normal. Seller's are adjusting to current values as most people with homes on the market are motivated to sell. Buyers are becoming more active as well and interest rates are still very good.

So, come visit and enjoy the lush green hills and beauty of the mountains and valley areas. Summer's long days allows time to come home from work and still do some of your favorite activities. As I always say, we drive to work but come home and play right out of our front doors.
