Franklin TN Named A Great Place To Live In America !!

Award-winning and emulated, downtown Franklin balances its rich historic character with a revitalized and prosperous mixed-use commercial district. Rapid change and development prompted by Interstate 65 construction in the 1960s threatened to destroy the neighborhood and town's heritage. Citizens responded by forming the Heritage Foundation of Franklin and Williamson County. The entire 16-block neighborhood was eventually placed on the National Register of Historic Places, and creation of the Downtown Franklin Association helped revitalize the neighborhood's commercial area.

Mixing Politics & Real Estate..Is that A Good Long Term Business Plan?

Over the past several months I have been lurking in the background of Active Rain reading the BLOG posts and that arrive in my e-mail each day. Many of these posts are excellent well written articles about the industry or the state of a local market or trends where that agent, inspector or mortgage lender has specific knowledge. Unfortunately many other posts have a political overtones or viewpoints and are more editorial on healthcare reform, tax deficits or other political positions and are not about our industry. While Active Rain is our venue to be the Real Estate, Mortgage Lender or Home Inspector Pundits in our own market I feel it is unwise for any of us to use this portal as a vehicle to express our own political or social view points towards one another or to the public.

Remember the nature of this beast we call Active Rain is to promote your industry professionalism not your political viewpoints so be careful out there...you may be doing more damage to your business than you realize.

I am not saying you do not have a right to express your beliefs or opinions I am stating that I do not believe this is the right venue for that expression. Remember once it is out there it is out there forever.....
