Wilson, NC

We all know that gas continues to go up straining our budgets. In the real estate business we put a lot of miles on our vehicles showing buyers around, checking on listings, and delivering paperwork.

I have been spending somewhere between $400 and $600 per month this year on gas and I'm tired of paying that much for gas. The reality is that 90% of the time I'm in the vehicle by myself, not with clients.

Therefore, I have purchased a 2006 KIA to use in my business. I of course still have the huge realtor vehicle for when I need to drive around clients. But for the other 90% of the time I will be consuming a lot less gas.

With lower interest rates and plenty of homes to choose from, now may be the right time for you to purchase real estate. Today's lower interest rates may not be around when prices flatten out, so trying to time the market rarely works to your advantage. Another problem with trying to time the market is that it requires a rising market to know just where the bottom was ... hindsight is always 20-20, isn't it?

In many cases, purchasing a home may be cheaper than renting. Click Here to read the entire article.

On this day, please join me in remembering our fallen military personnel and reach out to a veteran and thank them for their service to our country.

Traditional observance of Memorial Day has diminished over the years. Many Americans nowadays have forgotten the meaning and traditions. I am a retired U.S. Army Infantry Sergeant Major and I WILL NOT forget.

It is in no small part through the sacrifice of our military men and women that we have the freedom to enjoy life's simple pleasures.

Hey everyone! I hope everyone has enjoyed this week of almost beautiful weather! This has been a great week for real estate in the Wilson area. I have had potential clients and clients from as far away as California and Mexico! All coming to Wilson for a variety of different reasons. We still have the retirees and the halfbacks but our locals are also starting to get back into the picture a little bit more. I am seeing many more sign calls and internet inquiries than the past few months. This is encouraging!

Interest rates in our area are still running around 5.5% for someone with good credit and 5% down. Some ARMs are coming back into the market and even the occasional 100% loan and an interest only loan or two can also be found. The key has always been, if you want the best rate and terms, you need the best credit. That has not changed!

For those of you who have not been to my website, go to www.nchousehunt.com to see all of our listings. You can also click on the "Search Wilson MLS" tab and see everything on the market in our local Wilson MLS. If you are looking for a fairly secluded home on 1.9 acres on the water, you really need to look at this home. It is approximately 3200 square feet and has beautiful views of the water. You can see it at www.nchousehunt.com/2856 . Check out the virtual tour, it will be up in a few days, to get the best look at the property. This would be a great spot to get away from the hustle and bustle and relax!

If I can ever help you with real estate on I-95, half way between New York and Miami, just let me know. As always, my passion is helping people find their place to call home! Remember, "The finest compliment I can ever receive is the referral of your friends, family and business associates. Thank you for your trust."

I wanted to provide an exciting update that I have moved offices. I am now with RE/MAX Classic Realty working out of their office at 163 Nashville Commons Drive, Nashville, North Carolina 27856.

All of my contact information remains the same:

Direct phone: 252-442-2687

I look forward to continuing to provide superior real estate services to Nash, Edgecombe, and Wilson counties.
