About Henderson County, TN

Ringing in a New Year can be so exciting. A 'clean slate', a 'fresh start', a 'new beginning' are all phrases associated with the start of another year. For many of us it is also a time of reflection and resolutions. We will sit down with pen in hand and make a list of resolutions...the things we want to accomplish in the new year. Some lists are long, others short but the long and short of it is that most are forgotten as we get back into our regular schedules and routines.

So just how can we make a resolution and keep it....KISS off Resolutions....Keep It Simple Silly!

Ask these questions as you embrace these changes in your life....

WHAT? What do you REALLY want to change or accomplish in the new year? Let's say you want to lose 20 pounds, great! Weight loss is a very common resolution and will be on many of those New Year's Resolution lists but why is it that so few of us actually lose those pounds? Mostly because we don't address the other questions.

WHY? Why do you want to lose 20 pounds? What is your motivation for change? Want to look better in your clothes, want to be healthier and more fit, or do you have a special occasion coming up? Attach your motivating factor to your resolution list. "I want to lose 20 pounds because....."

WHEN? When you leave your resolutions open ended you set yourself up for procrastination and most probably failure. SO set a particular date or event to accomplish your goal. "I want to lose 20 pounds by my birthday because ...."

HOW? FINALLY but most importantly write down how you plan to reach your resolution. How are you going to lose your 20 pounds? Will you join the gym and begin an exercise program or begin some sort of dieting program? How are you going to get where you plan to be? You have to formulate some sort of written plan or you will just flounder around and fail to even get started on the road to resolution.

By KISSing off our resolutions by keeping them realistic and simplistic we give them a fighting chance of actually surviving until February.

Best of Luck and a Wonderful 2009 to you all!

I sell West Tennessee homes, farms and land! Lexington/Henderson County is a great place to retire and recreate! Come for a visit, stay for the rest of your life! I can help you with that last part! ;)

As 2008 comes to a close, I look back at all our company successes.

A better sales year than 2007. Yes, I said more sales in 2008. Someone please tell the news media that some markets are still relatively good. Maybe because we are so rural, it takes longer for word to get to us here in West Tn. RE/MAX Unlimited is the top selling company in our county.

My team was voted the "2008 Readers Choice Award Winners" as best real estate company. What an honor!!!

As far as team members, there are 6 of us. In sales volume in our market, here are the rankings according to the MLS. The number 1, 2, 8, 11, 22, & 25 spots in sales volume are held by our team.

Kathy Fisher wins the top producer award for 2008. Kathy completed her E-PRO certification and has reaped the rewards.

Jamie Perkins with another impressive year. Ranking in the top 10 in the county in sales. Look for Jamie in the top 5 in 2009. Probably would have made it this year, but had a terrible accident (broke his neck in car accident) and had to spend months in recovery.

Janice Johnson is our rock. Always consistent in sales. Ranks in the top percentile. So many talents. A true joy to be around. Watch out for Janice....she could take over the number 1 slot in 2009.

Two new members joined our team. And guess what....since their start in August, they have more than doubled their sales volume from previous year in 5 short months. What do you think 2009 holds in store for them?? Oh, yeah, they have a plan and really aggressive goals. The real estate world better get ready for these two RE/MAX newbies; Nick Mays and Monica Downs.

A wonderful office manager, Andrea Goolsby, keeps us all on the same page and in the right place at the right time.

We have strived to be community leaders, supporting our Schools, Chamber, and numerous charities.

Our team serves on numerous Board of Realtor committees, CASA Advocates, Relay for Life Team Leader, and other civic and community organizations.

A well balanced, well rounded team. We will continue to learn, grow, and provide superior customer service. Our business plan for 2009, to EXCEL !

Yes, life is a ride. We have learned the important thing about choosing a path in life....it isn't about where you are going, but who you bring along.

Wishing you and yours a wonderful holiday season filled with treasured moments with family and friends.

What is an ALDI you ask? A supermarket. A no-name brand market.

You won't find a brand you recognize. The reason....price!

Rather than 10,000 items, the ALDI store has approximately 1400. The prices are a staggering 40-50% less than the major supermarket and approximately 16% less than Walmart. No deli, no pharmacy, no oil change for your car.

You must buy or bring your own bags and you must sack your own groceries.

In this tough times, the ALDI stores are rapidly growing in popularity. The company plans to open 100 new stores in the US.

So, if you don't have an ALDI now, maybe you will. A great way to save $$$$ in today's economy.
