About Monroe County, AL

Well we Baby Boomers have been the "egg in the snake" for purchases for years now. The older Boomers are finally 66 years old and the youngest in their late forties. As we age but still want to feel good and act young, many are looking into getting more fit. Bicycles are a wonderful way to do that. You can ride to the corner and back to begin with so it is not a big commitment in energy right at first. As you get to feeling better, and you will, ride a little farther.

Wonderful bikes are out there for cheap. For under $300 you can get a "bicycle-built-for-two" or a trike bike. For under a $100 you can get a Schwinn or something similar. For slightly more you can get a Schwinn with 7 speeds. (See www.Walmart.com) Or you may want to go see your local bike shop and keep the money in your community. It will be a little more that way but you may feel better doing it.

So fellow Boomers, join me out there. Select a bike that expresses your personality. We can have fun in the fresh air and sunshine and get some exercise too!

We have found that the vast majority of home buyers go first to the Internet. Even loyal clients of real estate agents go there first to find out about the price and availability of homes. So if you are not on the Internet, you should be. For Sale By Owners find themselves at a disadvantage since they can not easily make a web page with only their home on it. Sites with lots of other homes requires that someone look through many other choices before they decide on yours.

Anyone who wants to have a website in the Mobile County area, can call me and I will help you get one at no charge. All I ask is that if you eventually decide to use a Realtor, you will call me first. Email me at jstikes@bellsouth.net or go online to www.JohnStikesRealtor.com and tell me what you need. You will also need to send me a front photo of your home by email. (Be sure that the photo is not very high pixel count so it will load and will email to folks with slower computers.)

Once you have the website for your home, you can email the link to everyone on your email address book so word with get around. If you want to see a sample before you decide how to go, that is also fine. We wish you the best of success!
