I Drove By Your EXPIRED Listing Today in Kentucky... - Jan 07 10:20 AM
Hmmmm...I wonder why it expired?
Let me take a look into this.
As I pull up the MLS expired list...
There is only one picture of the house.It isn't a picture that I can even see the house.
(Note: this isn't the real expired listing picture I'm blogging about)...but it is an excellent example!  
Usually, no inside pictures mean the inside looks bad and not staged or... 
My next thought...who had it listed?
Ohhh...I see.
Maybe it's an agent that is possibly unfamiliar ...

Where we go from here? - Dec 05 09:53 AM
Man if I hear one more article or broadcast about the market being so bad I may just scream. Has it slowed?Sure. Is it tough out there? Sure. But is the market bad? Not really. Are there markets out there that are woese than others? duh. But every market is different, what is happening in Lexington, KY is not the same as Las Vegas. In fact what is happening in one neighborhood in Lexington is totally different ...

Follow The Kentucky Quilt Trail - Nov 14 09:04 AM
The National Quilt Trail began in Adams County Ohio in 2001 when Donna Sue Groves kept a promise to her mother, master quilter Nina Maxine Groves, to paint a quilt on her barn.
That simple gesture of love has evolved into a state-wide effort to grace barns across America with the quilts of our heritage.   Today's trail stretches from Iowa to North Carolina, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky and back to Ohio with many counties joining each year. ...

Lexington Real Estate Market - Mar 29 12:00 PM
But wait, there's more!We've all heard that before and we usually know where the telemarketer is heading with this famous phrase. I however will use it here to call attention to there being more than what the media has been saying about the current real estate market; especially here in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky.As we all step back and take a deep breath in our view of the current mortgage crisis, let's all remember that ...

Localism: Lexington, KY Real Estate Info - Kentucky - Kentucky Relocation - Dec 12 10:50 AM

Kentucky is the place to be! I like to think of it as the land where time stands still...at least the beauty and lush surroundings. Mile after mile of black plank fencing surrounds legendary Kentucky horse farms.
I have lots of folks all over the USA contact me about Kentucky relocation. They want to know what is special about Central Kentucky, what is there to do here, what about jobs, about schools, where to board their ...

PRIVATE NATURE PRESERVE IN FAYETTE COUNTY, KENTUCKY - Mar 25 10:26 PM
                                        
Yesterday morning I had a chance to get out and have my coffee out in some of the prettiest scenery in Kentucky. My girlfriend called and invited me to go over near the Kentucky River on some property she owns. It is very close to Raven Run Wildlife Sanctuary...maybe a few miles.
The woods and creek there are drop dead gorgeous. I only had my camera phone with me, so I wasn't really prepared to take ...

When will the rates go down??? - Aug 13 12:43 PM
Does anyone have any theories?
Do any of you have weekly meetings that declare this event? How about just radio chatter on the way to and from?
Well, let me give you some examples of what I have listened to:
1. "What goes up must come down"...the market evolves every 6 years...
2. International involvement will be our only hope of rates coming down.
3. Toward the end of 2008 will be the next refi boom!
4. We are headed toward a ...

Some of My Kentucky Clients Have a Secret Weapon...Jennifer Castle - Feb 23 09:00 AM

This is a first for me today.
As long as I have been on Activerain, I have never recommended one lender or any other professional. I was commenting on a post of Desiree Daniels and my comment made me realize I just have to share it here also. 
I was in a ethics class the other day. I know we are supposed to give clients names and numbers of numerous lenders and home inspectors. Even though I HAVE ...

Lexington Kentucky IS a True Housing Bargain Says John F. Wasik - Jun 10 10:24 PM

I wasn't kidding when I was telling anyone who would listen that I was still doing very well in real estate in Central Kentucky.
When I meet someone new and they ask what I do... the next thing they say is, "Isn't the housing market bad here?" I have been telling them "NO". But, I think they thought I was pulling their leg.
Last month was my best month since I have been in real ...

Let's Go Shopping At The BUYER'S MARKET - Apr 03 07:35 AM
I remember a conversation I had with my Dad long ago when were watching TV and the news guy said we were in a recession. We had no idea that we were supposed to be feeling different till we saw it on TV!
Now what do we do??
We laughed a long time over that one!
Now why would anyone know there was a name for some situation like a recession unless it was announced that you were in ...

This Child Teaches Us To Never Give up - Adam Bender - Jun 01 06:34 PM

I can understand handicaps that you ignore. In some of us there is greatness itching to get out. Despite health issues or lack of a limb we are born with greatness. We can see it and we BELIEVE it with all our hearts.
WE can choose to go forward and be all that we can be. We see ourselves as perfect and whole.

Magic Key Turns On Holiday Lights in Lexington Kentucky - Dec 02 08:45 AM
The holiday freight train is rolling into Lexington KY right in the nick of time! 
Last night the festivities were changed up from past celebrations for the Christmas Parade and the Celebration of Lights. They were combined and at night!  What a great idea!
Usually, the parade is in the morning at 10AM and the lighting of the tree on another day. The crowd that gathered last night got many new surprises and they stayed warm with hot chocolate ...

Kentucky Kitten Needs a Home - May 28 09:20 AM
I escaped from neighbors that moved away. (I really think they left me behind.)
A few houses down I scampered onto the yard of a Realtor that was watering some flowers. My sister had done the same thing the other night and now she is living the life of a princess with one of her clients! They named her Picassa.
I am hoping that the same thing will happen for me. I was kinda scared when this picture ...

1st Time Kentucky HomeOWNERS, Karen & Clay - May 23 03:28 PM
Becoming home owners was something my boyfriend Clay and I always thought would come much later in our lives. We were sure that we would have to wait forever to have "all our ducks in a row" to even starting looking for a home. After meeting Lizette by chance at an open house holiday function, then again at Clay's business, For the Love of Dogs Bakery, we knew that Lizette was who we would call ...

Applebees Park - Home of The Lexington Legends - Aug 29 10:40 AM
One thing I know for sure is that I'm not a sports nut.
Even with that said, I didn't turn down an invitation by Richmond Mayor Connie Lawson to join her for a visit to Applebees Park to see the Lexington Legends play the other night. The park built in 2001 has the distinction of being the first totally privately funded Minor League Baseball park in the United States. It can hold up to 6,994 ...
