Since it’s the weekend, I’ll mention some non-real estate info today.  I like to make furniture with black walnut lumber.  I guess this is because that was the favorite wood used by my grandfather, and also because I inherited a bunch of it that I’ve been using.  What I have left, though, has lots of [...]

I’m working with a couple who are interested in buying a home in Mooresville.  Part of the process of working with clients is talking about what, if anything, they’ve done toward getting qualified for a mortage.  This couple had done all the right things including contacting a lender and getting pre-qualified.  Turns out, their lender [...]

When I’m out in the community talking to people who know that I’m a real estate professional, they all eventually get around to asking about the real estate market.  It usually goes like this, “How’s the market?  Nothing’s happening, is it?”  At that point, I patiently explain that the market is not DEAD.  It is [...]

As planned, I went to the meeting of the Mid-West Tool Collector’s Assocation meeting yesterday held at Bethania Moravian Church, just north of Winston-Salem, NC.  The meeting was great as usual, with dealers selling old woodworking tools (one of my interests), a presentation on Ornamental Turning including a demonstration of this slice of the woodworking [...]

Real estate is about selling dirt, so today, I’m writing about dirt- specifically, the dirt in my garden in Mooresville.  I took some time off today to do chores around the house- been working non-stop lately and things need to be done around the Suther grounds and home.  One of the annual needs is to [...]
