Top Neighbors: The magic behind the mirrors
You will never have to pay to be listed as a top neighbor. Period. That important detail clarified, let's discuss how we arrive at two "top neighbors" for a given region:
Localism is a bustling collection of hyper-local communities, and the top neighbors should reflect those members who are most active. When ranking users in a given region, several factors are considered. To get your foot in the proverbial door, you need to have posted at least one "Localism" article or photo for the region.
The very best way to quickly rise to #1 is to post high-quality local content. Keeping a steady strem of incoming posts and photos will massively tilt the scales in your favor.
What doesn't count toward the top neighbor ranking? ActiveRain points and community sponsorships. The top neighbor spots will always go to the most active members in a region. We want to create a level playing field that encourages the growth of communities — talent and dedication are required to win the day.
Last week was a beautiful fall week weather wise. Great, spectacular weather is something we experience in Central Washington (entirely different from the West side i.e.Seattle). Sky was blue, air was clear and foliage was in full color. Just time for a quick walk along the Banks of the Columbia River.
There were also lots of critters but the most impressive was my partner Maggie... a long haired Dachshund that thinks the world is her oyster... which is not a bad attitude and in fact it probably is
I last reported on the homes for sale and sold activity in the Briarwood subdivision in East Wenatchee in early August of last year. Briarwood is one of the most popular neighborhoods in East Wenatchee and homes sell fairly quickly there. Last year homes sold within 30 - 150 days from the listing date. Generally speaking, the higher the price the longer the days-on-market period.
