Going home
It's been a busy past few days and not much has been going on in the real estate world. All the news pundits say the bubble has popped but of course you know that's not true. Not much has been going on lately because everyone is consumed with the holidays. I'm just finishing my holiday cards now and I'm headed to Miss. for the next couple of days. Dec. is a slow time in real estate. I do have a client who's closing on a new house next week though so I've been a little busy. I also have a new listing. It's at 3468 24th St. SE. It's a great 3 bedroom, 2 bath house that's been recently renovated and it has parking! Check it out on longandfoster.com. I don't have my website up and running yet so I'm directing you to L & F's site instead. While I'm in Miss. I plan to do some work on the site and get it up and running so I'm looking forward to your feedback. My Dec. has been busy. I also passed the exam for my VA license so soon I'll be able to sell there too.
A trip home is always a mixed bag for me. Since my parents are both deceased most of the joy of going down there is gone. My brother and sister are still there as well as several nieces, nephews and grandnieces and nephews but it's not the same. When my mom was alive she would always cook a favorite meal and attentively listen to whatever I had to say for myself. My dad was very quiet but he and I would get into wonderful discussions about politics and football. No matter what, I could always count on them to be impressed by anything I talked about. My mother would let me know she was impressed by saying "gone girl." I loved hearing her say that. I miss talking to them both.
While I'm in Miss. I may check out real estate. In my hometown of Vicksburg the houses are real cheap. The house I grew up in wouldn't sell for more than $65,000 if we put it on the market today. It's amazing how different home values are from place to place. The house I live in now is worth more than my sister's and brother's houses combined.
I'm taking my computer with me so I'll be able to stay in touch. I'll keep you posted. In the meantime, I wish every one of you a happy and safe holiday.
