About Calloway County, KY

Murray, Kentucky's downtown transforms itself on the south side of the square on Saturday mornings in the summer and fall. It becomes the site of the Saturday morning farmer's market selling fruits, vegetables, flowers, home made goods and even fish! This 10 plus year tradition gives local folks a place to come, get some good fresh produce, visit and even let their pets intermingle.

Shoppers wander the area while the Cantalope wait to be inspected

You sometimes have to get up there to "pick" the right one

Fresh corn is always a popular item

Lots of fresh veggies and fruit are available

Bags are handed out for free on the condition that you will reuse them each week

Fresh Amish baked goods are available for sale

Even the four legged customers seem to have something to talk about

MMMMMMMMMM...blackberry cobbler tonight??

Fresh picked apples bagged up and ready to go

Peaches are another great treat offered

Bags ready to hold your purchases

Fresh cut flowers for you take home and grace your table

Potted flowers for the longer lasting blooms!

\

There is even "locally grown" Talapia for sale!

If you are in the area, come on downtown on Saturday morning. The shopping and visiting are fine!

If you're looking for a place to post your listings or to sell anything, really, we now have Craigslist in Western Kentucky

http://westky.craigslist.org/

It is pretty cool that we have this site. It is something that investors in bigger cities have used for years and now we can post our listings and information on the site. Check it out, you might be surprised what you can do.

Contact Melanie Koehler or Bonnie Byerly at 270-761-7355 or www.1cornerstonerealty.com for more information about how to help your home sell faster.

1. Before spending time or money, you should always check with Melanie Koehler, your exclusive agent at Cornerstone Realty and Rental, LLC.



2. You should always keep your landscaping and yard in tip-top shape. Buyers first impression is driving up to the home. This is known as curb appeal.



3. Keep pets under control at all times. This is for their safety as well as the buyers.



4. You should always stay out of a buyers way. Buyers usually will not feel comfortable talking about the property if the owner is home. Even going outside during a showing is helpful.



5. Store any unused furniture to make rooms look and feel larger.



6. You should remove any ornate item you are considering taking with you that a buyer might consider staying with the property. For example, a chandelier or wall system.



7. Make sure the price and terms appeal to most of the buying public in your price range.



8. Be aware of other homes in your neighborhood or similar ones that compare to your home.



9. Make sure your home looks fresh, comfortable, and new at all times.



10. Pack up anything now you are not going to need and store it away in an out-of-the-way place. This will help the home feel uncluttered.



11. Rely on a professional Real Estate agent to sell your home at a premium price while giving you the expertise, market knowledge, and genuine concern you deserve. Making the sale of your home worry and hassle free is what Cornerstone Realty is all about!
