It's almost time for Nazareth Days in Nazareth, Pennsylvania.
What are Nazareth Days?
Nazareth Days are lots of fun!!
This year, Nazareth Days start July 16th and end July 18th.
On Thursday, the local shops and businesses have sidewalk sales. You can find some really great bargains here.
On Friday, in addition to the sidewalk sales, some of the businesses offer free popcorn and pretzels, ice cream for 10 cents a scoop (WOW!), and hot dogs for a super low price. I have not seen these prices since I was little girl. (Oh, oh!! I'm showing my age.) Friday evening is the block party. The streets downtown are closed off for food, dancing and entertainment. Lots of fun!
But, wait, there's more!
Saturday is the final day of the sidewalk sale. In addition to the sales, trolleys take you from downtown Nazareth to the boro park (all FREE), or you can walk it. What's the big interest in going to the park that day? Lots of tables of vendors with crafts, paintings, etc. and a car show in the ball field.
For the finale, the park will have entertainment and (drum roll, please) a fireworks display for the grand finale!
I will have a Keller Williams table in the town circle with a couple of other fellow agents, where the food will be located. (Mmmmmmm!! I can just smell it now! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!) Come on out to see me and to say hello! I would love to see you and meet you. There will be some great prizes to raffle off donated by some of the area businesses.
It will be lots of fun!! See for yourself!!

Recommendation:
If you're buying a home, it is important that you work closely with a highly-motivated agent who understands what's going on with the real estate market and local economy. He/She will be able to advise you on how to get the most for your money and what homes you may want to avoid, as there are homes on the market that are not priced at their fair market value.
If you're selling your home, it's also important that you work closely with a highly-motivated agent who understands what's going on with the market and local economy. Your goal is to net top dollar - which you may not achieve if you over price or under price your home.
