My New Blog

“Spring has Sprung

Fall has Fell

Summer’s here and

It’s hot as (you get the idea)”.

When I originally created this blog, I promised to share some real estate market news with you. Now seems like the perfect time.

From my perspective as the weather continues to heat up and as gasoline prices continue to rise, the real estate market is showing some strong indications of recovery. After a rather dismal winter hunting land and farm real estate seems lo be moving again. I heard this week that a 400+/- tract is under contract for $ l,900.00 per acre. The property has been on the market for about a month. I also heard there is a 100+/- acre parcel under contract for $2,400 per acre. Only on the market for three weeks. Not bad.

The housing market seems to look a little brighter too. This is the time of year that everyone wants to look at a house. The idea is to get moved and settled in by the time school starts. The City of Demopolis is very fortunate to have a school system that is the envy of every County in the Black Belt. That fact is reflected in the local real estate market. Did you ever hear anyone say “houses in Demopolis are expensive”. The real estate professional’s favorite word;” location, location, location.”

All in all not bad news. I’m predicting a seller’s market by this fall. If you are considering selling or if you think you missed the last wave, why not drop by our office for a consultation, Let one of our professionals develop a marketing plan to maximize your properties exposure and value.

Until next week say safe,

Barry

Welcome to our new real estate blog. We are excited to bring to you the first blog that I know of, that will help to give you some insight on the local real estate market as well as tips and tricks you can use to spruce up you home.

To make sure that we are covering the subject matter you need I have included my email address at the bottom for suggestions. Please be critical and let me know what you want or need to read. I’ll do the best I can to meet those needs.

The content will be updated weekly on Sunday night if at all possible. The postings will not be limited to me. I plan to ask every one of my super agents to contribute their skills and knowledge.

I have plans for a really good blog, so by all means email me and let me know what you think. (The good, the bad, and the ugly.)

Thanks

It's Christmas and time to slow down for a change.  Yea! Yea! Yea!  I know how hard it is to get back in groove after the holidays, but try not to look that far ahead.  Relax and enjoy your family.  It's only for a day or two and it only comes once a year. 

Most of all don't forget the wonderful gift that God gave to his people 2000 years ago. 

We used to play a game in one of my former Sunday School classes at Christmas time.  We would all try and remember a fond Christmas story from our childhood, and share them with each other. 

What a way to kick of a blog.  Send me your story via email and I will publish it to our blog for all to share.

Enjoy the season; stay safe; and keep in touch.
