About Lee County

Thanks Laura Sellers - Apr 07 03:31 AM

After doing a bunch of soul searching I decided in January to pick up the pieces, trim some dead wood and refocus on ...

ANGEL MESSAGES - May 01 07:41 AM

An out-of-town prospect contacted me through my website, asking if I could reserve some time on a Friday afternoon to show her some properties. A few days before her trip here, we set a time & I asked if she would meet at the office. She was car-less (her husband would be using it), so she emailed if I could please pick up her and her daughter at the hotel--- and that she'd buy the gas. ...

UPDATE on Home Staging in Phenix City, AL - Coincidence? I don't think so! - Jun 24 08:17 AM

Wynning Interiors staged a house in Yorktown Subdivision in Phenix City, AL on March 7, 2008. Yesterday (June 23, 2008), the house went under contract to close in 15 days...only 15 weeks after staging!

Rate Lock Advisory 06/02/2008 - Jun 02 12:14 PM

Monday's bond market has opened in positive territory despite stronger than expected economic news. Helping boost bond prices this morning are sizable stock losses with the Dow down 132 points and the Nasdaq down 27 points. The bond market is currently up 6/32, but we will likely still see an increase in this morning's mortgage rates of approximately .125 of a discount point due to weakness late Friday.
