Market Summary Review all MLS listings in Johnson Lane. If you live in the Johnson Lane area of Minden or you are planning to buy a home in this area, you may be interested in the market summary below. The local market in 2013 saw a considerable rise in price after many years of price decreases.

  Newsletter from Lisa Wetzel and Jim Valentine  RE/MAX Realty Affiliates  Gardnerville, Nevada 89410   Things To Anticipate For The Inspection   Most residential home sales today involve the services of home inspectors. The most common inspections are the pest and physical. The physical inspection will take 2-3 hours depending on the size of your home. It is amazing how often the deficiencies called out are the same house after house. Your agent can help you anticipate what will be called out so you can prepare for it in your offer negotiations, or remedy it before the inspections so it doesn't become an issue.   Broken window seals are a common item that can usually be identified by fogging between the panes. That is an indication of a broken seal which means the window must be repla... 11/19/2012

Trees And Northern Nevada Real Estate It takes a long time to grow a tall maple or pine tree and they add value provided they are well located on the property and in good health.  Pine trees in the wooded parts of our Northern Nevada area can feel the stress of drought and many trees had a tough time getting through last winter because of the lack of water.  The forest goes through the natural cycle of drought, fire, and the resulting forest cleansing, but if you want to keep the trees on your property in good health you might want to bring in experts to assist you in a designing and implementing a health plan for them to help fight the bark beetle and other tree killing natural phenomenon.  Most of the trees on private property in our area were planted by a property owner along the way... 06/21/2012

Fifth Annual Sierra Lutheran Falcons Fundraiser at the Minden Food Company.  The Minden Food Company again hosted the annual wine tasting fundraiser for the Sierra Lutheran Falcons basketball team.  Held in the middle of the street outside the Minden Food Company restaurant, the event has become a highly anticipated time to see old friends and catch up.  Each special event in our small town draws its own crowd and this one is always special, the old guard. In addition to the Minden Food Company prepared taste treats served by roaming “waiters”, basketball players, there is live music, authors signing their books, art for sale, and other appropriate vendors.  The time of year is perfect for an outdoor event, not too hot or cold. The event is symbolic of the coming together of the many pa... 09/23/2011

Interesting Things to Do In Carson Valley, Nevada   The CVIC hall in Minden, Nevada is being celebrated by the townsfolk for 100 years of service.      Many memories have been created within the walls of the Carson Valley Improvement Center, CVIC.  The Town of Minden is having a month long series of festivities to recognize the occasion beginning with a showing of Charley Varrick starring Walter Mattheau.  That movie was filmed in the Carson Valley.  Our family has had many special moments in the CVIC Hall including the Rotary Paper Airplane contest.  The kids made planes, went up on the balcony, and launched them.  Prizes were awarded for longest distance, longest time, most aerobatic, and other creative prizes that the Rotarians thought up.  Fun was had by all.  The hall saw an extens... 09/08/2011

My Minden Nevada Daylilies In 1979 I bought a charming older home in the original town site of Minden Nevada.  For the next 25 years we lived in that great house and raised our family.  We actually moved about 5 years ago and build a new home on acreage just a few minutes away and our daughter and her family are now the happy residents. An avid gardener, I spent many summers planting all sorts of flowers that my kids and grand kids now enjoy.  Here's a picture of some of my favorite daylilies from the the Amador Flower Farm in Plymouth California.
