Dear Valued Homeowner,

Have you been thinking of selling your home ? Are you unsure if now is a good time ?

My name is Melissa Grant, I am a Licensed Realtor(r) in Crossville, Tennessee and I want to share with you some conditions on the market, my services as well as what I can do for you if you choose to sell your home and place your home with a Realtor.

First and foremost : I have also watched the news and listened to the media tell us the market is "bad". I want to clarify : Real Estate is local and whereas other area's may not be doing so well, Crossville, Tennessee has remained steady in the stream of both buyers and sellers."Steady" meaning : their are still homes selling and buyers still making purchases. Our market has changed, yes, I agree. However, many of these changes are for the better. Today, we are given more opportunities to market and sell homes.

Which brings me to my services and marketing your home. In past months and years paper advertising was the most effective way to reach potential buyers and market one's home. Homes and Land Magazines were and are still circulated throughout our State and many other States at the request of the potential buyer. Although I still utilize this service I have added many newer, "this day and age" techniques to market and sell all the homes I have listed. For example :

• Blogging about a property has not only proved beneficial it has sold homes and reaches millions of potential buyers via online in the comfort of their homes wanting to purchase a home or upgrade.
• Online Advertising at it's finest requires a minimum of 5-10 ads running at one time so that your home never falls by the waist-side or gets lost in "cyberspace"
• Flyers are increasing the number of potential buyers. Flyers provide a great summery of the property listed with eye - catching graphics and features.

These are just a few of the "New Age" marketing concepts and materials I use to ensure your home gets recognized.

The media has informed the general public of "national" averages not the averages of Crossville, Tennessee. Yes, we have changed, our market has changes, more importantly the way selling/marketing a home has changed.

I have changed with the market and I am very excited. I currently see the marketing materials I have been using working to benefit my sellers. I would love to put my marketing techniques to work for you and aggressively market your home.

If at any time you are interested in my services, have questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me For a free location packet click here melissa@choiceoftn.com Courtesy of Melissa Grant , Affiliate Broker, 931-210-8277 Technorati Profile

The Homestead community founded itself during the early and middle thirties as part of a homesteading project. The purpose of this homesteading project was to provide the community of Cumberland County and surrounding areas with employment, and provide 256 families a low cost means of purchasing homes.

The Homesteads Tower stands in the center of the Homestead Community as the most eye-catching landmark of Cumberland County. It is constructed of native Crab Orchard Stone and became known as the "Showplace of the New Deal".

It was built in 1937-38 and housed the administrative offices, as well as a water tank that held 50,000 gallons of water that was used to serve the whole Homestead Community. The tower is 85 feet tall and has a winding staircase of 97 steps that winds up into the tower and brings you a breathtaking view of the Homesteads from a lookout room at the top of the tower.

In July, 1934, Eleanor Roosevelt visited the Cumberland Homesteads. She viewed many of the homes, both finished and unfinished and the splendid crops that were now evident everywhere. She urged the Homesteaders to keep faith in their undertaking, and praised highly what had already been accomplished.

Today the Homestead Tower is maintained as a historical site and houses a small museum. In the museum you can learn the history of the Homesteads through the many pictures and articles on display and by talking to the museum's curator. Displayed in one room you can find "old time" things the homesteaders used, including furniture, cook stoves, toys and tools.

Be sure to visit the small gift shop with many handcrafted items and books which relate the history of the area and Cumberland County.
