Lenox Village is a hot little part of Nashville right now!  Homes in Lenox Village command higher prices than the immediate surrounding area because of the unique aspects of the community.  Home owners that have lived there for 2 1/2 to 3 years are already seeing equity grow in the tens of thousands of dollars and selling their homes at a significant profit.  One of our recent listings sold in just 8 days.  We implemented an aggressive marketing plan including staging and virtual tour, priced the home competitively and the home found it's new owner in just 8 days.  This kind of fast turn around is not a-typical in this area, though not guaranteed by any means.  But anyone looking for a move or an upgrade in Lenox Village is in prime position to sell.  And we are looking to become the go... 07/18/2007

How about $15,000 in property value. The infinite wisdome (LOL) of the United States Postal Servcie is at work again in Nashville. THe addition of the Cane Ridge community name has brought some relief from the negative connotation of Antioch, however the gerrymandered lines are so silly even our City Officials are befuddled. Within a 1 mile radius we have 3 seperate zip codes...37013, 37027, 37211. Now I know this doesn't sound odd but but the 37013 zip code has 2 different areas that are 5 miles apart. The Postmaster said it has to do with a work contact....The reason for the frustration is two subdivisions adjoin the one where I build and sell 1 has the 37211 zip code, the other the 37027 zip code but we are all in the same school and tax zone!!! Due to the high crime issues in 37013 ... 07/07/2007

The annual "Let Freedom Sing" celebration was so awesome last night.  There's such excitement in Nashville and it makes me proud to be part of it all!  Over 100,000 people were on hand to celebrate the 4th of July at Riverfront Park.  Actually, it's one of the largest fireworks displays in the nation.  The celebration is an all-day event...with activities for children as well as adults.  And since Nashville is known as Music City USA....one would expect lots of music.  And music it was.....with concerts all day long.  The evening's concert featured country music stars such as Taylor Swift, Rodney Adkins and Van Zant.   But the Nashville Symphony was the star of the show...synchronizing with the fireworks display.  What a show!!Thanks Nashville...for being such a fun place to live! Happy... 07/05/2007
