The wind is blowing in from the South and the trees are starting to leaf out. Flowers are starting to show alongside the roads. Instead of snow, we get rain for weather changes, ah ha, life is sweet this time of year. March madness is going on in the Ozarks too, especially in Branson and Hollister. 
A couple of days ago we met some of my cousins who were vacationing in Branson, she won a bunch of show tickets at work, and eating at the buffet were three young men that were very tall. I asked them who they were playing ball for and they said Washington. College of the Ozarks is hosting the NCAA Division II Tournament right now so the average height of folks in Branson has gone up considerably.
Besides the local entertainment getting started back into full swing, there is always fishing, and Table Rock Lake is hosting another FLW Bass Tournament that just started and includes walleye too. Weather here should warm up to close to 40 today and tomorrow and that means you are a serious fisher-person to compete here! I went out a couple times last week when the weather was around 70 degrees and was perfectly fine in that weather.
The White Bass have started upstream already and I was able to catch a few small ones, but nothing of eating size. Galena will be the host of their 2nd Annual White Bass Tournament this year on March 21st, which happens to also be when I turn the big 60. What a day that should be, I plan on being on the water, chasing those White Bass, and you?

A total of 10 single family homes sold in Stone County according to our local MLS report for last month. They were priced starting at $132,500 and topping out at $591,000. Seven of these homes sold for over $200,000 so you can see that they are not foreclosures but new homes and resales. This signals the start of our new selling season is off to a great spring forward!
There were also other types of homes and land sales in the county last month and all that and more information is available by request.
One of the typical questions I get is: "How is the market in the Table Rock Lake area and is it a good time to buy?" Reading the articles from various well-known nationally recognized experts for buyers can give you, sometimes what seems like, conflicting information. I do not claim to be an "expert" because I have heard the definition of an ex is a has-been and a spurt as a drip-under-pressure and I am certainly not either.
Honestly, I have to give my opinion regarding our local market as: it depends upon your particular circumstances more than any other factor as to when a good time to buy is. If you would like to go over your situation and get an honest evaluation of whether you are in the right "timing" or not, I will be glad to help.

I was looking for a home within driving distance of my new job in Branson after moving here from New Orleans. I called a couple of real estate agents listed in the phone book but they never returned my call. Steve was my next call and he returned my call and susequent phone calls and emails promptly. He showed me houses all over the country-side. We found just what I was looking for at the price I wanted to pay. He helped through the funding and closing and got me into my new home in less than a month. Jim Hogberg, Hilton's of Branson, MO.
We asked you to be our buyers agent because of 3 reasons: you e-mail us about the house and 19 acres that we looked at first. Although it wasn't exactly what we wanted we thought you had listened to us and you understood the type of property that we were looking for. You seemed knowledgeable to us about the current real estate climate when advising us about what might be a reasonable offer. Lastly, we thought you seemed like a nice, honest person that we could work with. Yes, we would use you again! You were always available to answer our questions. You checked on lots of details to make sure we had all of our t's crossed and i's dotted. Thanks again for all of your help. We're VERY happy with our new house and acreage!
Thanks again,
