The Mud Bug Run in Greensboro NC 2011 down at Hagan Stone Park is complete.   The local firefighters from Pleasant Garden and other local Greensboro businesses have decided to delve into the latest fitness trend of Obstacle Runs.  Speaking as a participant in such venues I jumped in with both feet literally.   I have decided to make such a pastime a family affair.  My eldest son has been accompanying me but today we brought the youngest since they did have a "Kid's Bug Run".           I actually was pretty pleased with my performance gauge against my last run which was the Warrior Dash in August down in Huntersville, NC.           Today's event actually was blessed with good weather as we had all feared for cold and rain as was promised by the weatherman but, as the week passed by the f...

Slow Market Where is That?   Here in Greensboro, NC personally I am very busy.  I have gotten NINE new buyers in the last two weeks.  Of those nine buyers in the last two days I have written three offers.  We are still negotiating on all three. I am going out tomorrow with another one of the nine to pick the home they want to put an offer on.  It is without a doubt a good time to buy in regards to the mortgage industry.  Many home prices are way down because of the present market also.   I also have new listings coming up as well.  I have three short sales that have now broken loose and are moving toward closing.  One has gotten final approval and two others are close to final approval.   So as we discuss "Down Markets" or trends are you really doing everything you can do bring in busin...

Learning From Nature Are You On Top Or In The Trenches?   Taking my youngest to the Greensboro Natural Science Museum is home to many animals from tigers to alpacas.  But, of interest in todays lesson is the small but community oriented Merkat.  You see Merkats always live as an extended family and they are constantly watching out for each other.   You will always have the workers and rest of  the community going about their daily business in the trenches.    Always working and just once in awhile glancing over their shoulders but not concerned because they trust someone else to watch out for them.     So is your agent watching out for you?  How is your comfort level with their performance?  Maybe you are a first time home buyer.  A client whether buyer or seller needs to be able to tru...

They begin by proclaiming: “Barbecue, basketball, and business: It’s a conveniently alliterative trio that’s synonymous with Greensboro, the historic hub of North Carolina’s picturesque Piedmont region. Yet there’s so much more to the city’s identity — museums, galleries, festivals, parks, music, and the dramatic arts. The combination of a pleasant, four-season climate, a deep menu of restaurants, and a gracious Southern style is tough to top.” The article includes a wealth of information on our region: theater and the arts, sports – including our obsession with the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) and the museum to prove it....
