Spring is ...uh Springing!!!

Well we are still kind of waiting for spring to get here at the lake but it is getting closer everyday.
Teresa saw her tulips making their way out of the ground, the days are getting a little longer, and the temperature is slowly creeping up. Our first two months of Real Estate activity here has shown some improvement. We are seeing inquiries more and more each week and with the warmer weather we expect it to continually grow. If you are looking for investments in Real Estate our community has a lot to offer. Things may seem bleak right now but I know good times are ahead of us. I personally refuse to let these hard times get me down. I know it will get better and I will be stronger from the lessons I have learned. How has this time in our lives made you stronger and what have you learned from this? I would be curious to know. Teresa and I have learned that by keeping a watchful eye on our finances, appreciating what we have, and a keeping our faith strong we have been overcome this. With spring just around the corner we look forward to a brighter day. I look forward to your comments. Now get out there and enjoy Spring!
Thanks

A New Year, Low Interest, Big Opportunity!

I hope everyone had a safe and happy New Year! 2009 is definitely going to be interesting. With the lower interest rates now might be a good time for you to refinance, upgrade your present home or buy a home. What ever it might be I wouldn't be a good friend and REALTOR if I didn't remind you to be fully aware before going into any financial endeavor. It's just good common sense. Now is the time for all of us to become more involved in our own economic future and that in turn will help the economy as a whole. I am no different than anyone else. Over the course of time I have made some good financial decisions and some bad ones! I have learned to take care of and respect every dollar I have and spend it wisely. In the title of this post I said " Big Opportunity" so... here it is. The Big Opportunity is... are you ready?....YOU!!! Now more than ever we as Americans have a HUGE opportunity to make this country the great country it has been in the past. Our nature has always been a a state of resiliency. So in 2009 I challenge all of you to take your life by the horns and make it a great one. Because we are a great nation and will persevere. No I'm not running for office! LOL I just believe in us and know that better days are ahead. The future boils down to one of two ways to face it that involve two variables, Fear and Faith! You can take fear and turn it into faith or you can lose your faith and it turns into fear. I hope you chose the first one. Have a great year. Hope to see you all soon.
God Bless
