Jeff Johnson proud to be YOUR REALTOR

BRAVO, to the Belknap Neighborhood Association.

The Douglass Loop in the Louisville Highlands was the location of the Belknap Fall Festival on Saturday. This event was a part of the annual "week in the Highlands" celebration. Music, Food, Games and some incredible arts and crafts booths lined the Loop and beyond.

I was there from about 10 am through 2 pm and it was very well attended. The food was awesome, as you can tell that was my favorite part, and the booths were too. This year there seemed to be not only a larger crowd, but the booths and activities extended further beyond the Loop. I will be posting pictures on my Myspace page in the coming days.

This is just another reason the highlands of Louisville Kentucky is one of the most sought after neighborhoods around. Events like this one, consistent housing prices and a good inventory of homes make it a true destination for a diverse and happy group of people. As of this writing there are approximately 130 homes on the local MLS for sale. There are homes available for every desire.

Call me today and I will help you make your Highlands home dream come true.

I love my JOB. A client of mine just called, it's been two months since they moved into their home. The entire process from home hunt to close was one of those where you just are on the edge of your seat not knowing what is going to happen next. He and his wife wanted a home in the Highlands and they wanted it yesterday! After looking at about 6 houses they settled on one, actually about three streets over from me.

Well today he called just to "give me an update" on how they are doing in their new home. He has found his new coffee shop, barber and bar. His wife is happy, he said she has been singing all day around the house and the dog is settling in.

Now that is what it is all about! I feel ten times better right now than the day of their closing when I walked out with the commission check!

I have only been doing this for about 4 months and my broker asked me the other day if I were happy and if being a Realtor was what I expected. Well I told him that yes, I am happy, and that it has been pleasantly better than I had expected. When I left the corporate world to enter this career I remember reading a book that said, "If you do what you love, the money will come"!

The market can be so erratic right now that those of us who are staying with it should and need to love what we are doing. Conversations like I just had, remind me why I am here, why I can't wait to hear my phone ring, show a house or post a blog.

I just wanted to share this nice experience with each of you and acknowledge the good things you do each day, we are indeed blessed.

Thanks

Jeff

I have people ask me almost everyday what is available in the highly sought after neighborhoods in area 03, these include St Matthews, Clifton and Crescent Hill.

When I first moved to Louisville over 10 years ago, my first home was in the Clifton Neighborhood. On Saturday mornings I would get one of my Chihuahuas up early and walk down to Nancy's Bagel Grounds. Yummy bagels and good coffee. My niece lived just down the road in St. Matthew's across Cannons Lane from Seneca Park. It is a lovely area and the houses move quickly in the area.

Every year around this time we make a trip to the Crescent Hill neighborhood to see some of the most extreme Halloween decorations in town! If your interested give me a call and I will share my favorite "secret" streets for the decor!

Well there is truly something for everyone in area 03. Currently on the MLS there are 408 active homes for sale in the area. These include homes from around 50k up to a cool million!

If your interested in finding just the right home call me today and ask about my $500 rebate as a buyer or if you are looking to list your home the First American Warranty compliments of the Johnson & Meyer Team.
