About Muscogee County, GA

This past week 23 single family homes sold in Columbus Ga. Fifty three homes came new on the market and thirteen came back on the market. (Disregard all figures to the right of the Single Family heading, these figures represent areas outside of the Columbus Ga City Limits).

What is surprising to me are not the numbers of how many, what I found interesting are the comparison columns of Listing Price and Sold Price. To me the comparison of these two columns tells me that the Listing Agents did their homework and priced the home correctly. My hats off to you all for a job well done.

Since we are located right on the border of Georgia and Alabama and because many agents int he area are licensed in both states, I felt it important to pass on the news of the Alabama Real Estate License Law Amendment reagarding advertising.

Advertising rules were based on "letter sizing", this rule was impractical to enforce because measuring became too complex an issue. The amended rule stipulates that, "a salesperson or associated broker will be considered in compliance with the License Law Advertising Regulation, if the name of their broker or company is prominently enough displayed that it can be read and understood.

Easy enough! Advertisements should include your brokers name or company name so that it is easily understood by the public, what company or broker you are affiliated with and whom you are accountable to. Very clear, very simple. I hope future Georgia laws will be as simple.

Columbus Ga, Fort Benning, area; OK, it has not come up in

discussion for awhile, but Columbus Ga is probably home to Coca

Cola. The reason for making this claim is the fact that Dr. Pemberton

lived just north of Columbus back in 1869. For those Atlanta residents who insist the soft drink home is

Atlanta, yes you are right,

perhaps more correct than the Columbus claim that I made.

I'm sure that there are folks in Columbus that will forever claim this is home to Coke. As there are folks

in Atlanta who may call us crazy for thinking it began anywhere but Atlanta. The home of Coca Cola is now

the entire world, the home of my Coke is my cooler or refrigerator. This entire post has been "much ado

about nothing." What is important is that the Historic Columbus Foundation has preserved and protected

the wonderful little structure that Dr. Pemberton once lived in. Broadway in Columbus Ga is home to

dozens of other historic homes, many of them with interesting and sometimes surprising stories.
