Seasonally-Adjusted Historical Files

Each February, NAR Research incorporates a normal review of seasonal activity factors and fine-tunes historic data for the past three years based on the most recent findings. Revisions have been made to monthly seasonally adjusted annual sales rates for 2010 through 2012, as well as the inventory month's supply data; most revisions are minor with little or no impact on previous characterizations of the overall market. There are no revisions to monthly home prices (single family and condo) or to raw inventory data (beyond normal prior-month revisions).

Live Near the Lake

Build your dream home on this affordable lot in established lakeside subdivision. Rio Vista located in Friendsville features many homes with different styling unlike many of the cookie cutter subdivisions. Each home reflects it's owners unique personality and individuality. Be a part of this lakeside community and build your home on this .54 acre lot suitable for a basement home. This is a corner lot which fronts Rio Drive and Little Vista. Seller is motivated and would also consider trade for another suitable property. Walking distance to the lake. One of the best things I have noticed about this community is the wooded lots with established plantings and trees provide such beautiful surroundings. A parklike setting with hills and valleys.

Facebook Friend or Foe

Whether you like it or not as of July 2010 statistics indicated that over 500,000 people use Facebook all over the world. Such growth since February 2004 is unbelievable. The social application has created friendships between hundreds of users who friend each other, chat, play games and participate and interact with others through pages created by users. You may hate it when your friends send you "virtual gifts", Farmville invitations, Wheel of Fortune, Mafia Wars and so on. How about when your wall is loaded up with Yo'ville, Frontierville, Farmville,  and now Cityville. Then you see someone has made a page that they don't care about your farm, your fish, your cafe or your Mafia. Hey you guys, don't you know if you don't want to see it just BLOCK the application! Simple solution.

Personally I think these games are fine. Great for relieving some stress. That's what they are for....to have fun with!  If you have friends that you know don't like them don't post on their walls. Friends if I post on your wall and you don't like my game, don't delete me,  block the game.  I don't mind the games if I play them, what I don't care for is when users THINK others are interested that they clipped their toenails today or their dog threw up on the rug. WHO CARES??? Oh brother!  Let's see what they're saying now...."Getting ready to do some unpacking...." Who cares! "I hate my XXXX job at XXXX" Then get another one, at least you have a job! 
 

Think before you vent for the world to see!

 Sometimes you may be frustrated and want to blow off some steam. Cell phones make it so easy to vent your anger on the world wide web via facebook within seconds. Even at work. People, think about what you are saying before you post it for everyone to see. Don't go posting stuff that can come back and BITE you in the butt! Did you know many employers look you up on facebook before they consider offering you a job or a promotion?  And once you get that job..... Don't go trashing your employer for everyone to see! If you don't like your job don't belittle your employer on the internet. It can and will be used against you. Granted we do have freedom of speech....but your employer also has freedom to hire and fire at will and many times without cause, so don't give them a reason! 

 

Facebook can be a good thing. Ever wonder what happened to your best friend in 5th grade? Old friends find each other and catch up. Families and friends can stay in touch. Friends band together and pray for those in need and offer words of encouragement. You can see your baby nieces and nephews as they grow up through photo sharing. I have heard of users who have found lost relatives and reconnected. How wonderful is that? And how fun to have everyone wish you a Happy Birthday! Everyone loves to feel SPECIAL.

Whether you like it or not facebook is here. How you use it is up to you.

Old Barns

Being a Realtor® I spend a great deal of time in my car. Over the past few years I have come to realize that I love seeing the old barns scattered throughout the East Tennessee area. Each barn is different. Some of them are very simple structures built only to serve a purpose and some are have very unique features and are very beautiful. Some are bare rustic wood and some are painted different colors that brighten up the countryside. Each barn has character and is beautiful in a a rustic sort of way. Although I have seen hundreds of beautiful barns I have not always been able to just conveniently pull over and take a picture of them.  Here are some of the barns that I have been able to capture along the way. Hope you like them too!
