North Kingstown Property Revaluation Letters   North Kingstown Property revaluation letters were received this week by all property owners in North Kingstown RI real estate.  As you may know it is required that a revaluation occur every 3 years for statistical purposes and every 9 years for full property re-evaluation in accordance with state law.  This current re-assessment was a statistical re-evaluation based upon market values and current property sales.

Recommendation | Coastal RI Realtor | Ginny Lacey Gorman This is a very strong, sincere recommendation for a Rhode Island Realtor that I have come to adore and admire.    She is first and foremost a friend anytime she is needed.   Secondly, but certainly not least, she is one of the most trustworthy, driven, and innovative Realtors that I know.   I first met Ginny Gorman in early 2010, as we both were beginning to make huge inroads into the blogging world.  We were both actively learning to blog for business and felt we could market effectively for clients online.   With our past business experiences, and our Connecticut connection, we quickly found we could grow more quickly by sharing as we grew.  We drove to Atlantic City together in 2011 to expand our knowledge with a 2 day conferen...

Veterans Day Yesterday - North Kingstown Veterans Day Parade Today.   Woodrow Wilson created  Veterans day in the early 1900's.  He said the following for all Veterans we appreciate so much... "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country's service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations."   I hope you reached out yesterday November 11th, Veteran or call or see someone who is a Veteran and thank them for all they have done and given of themselves for this country.  As a Rhode Island realtor, I have many past clients who are Vete...
