Plan for Sears mail order home
If you offer real estate Search on a real estate blog, it seems that the natural thing for visitors to do is Search, many times overlooking the brilliant insights of the Realtor/blogger in favor of looking at glitzy presentations of available dream homes.
I did have a few posts that stood out from the pack in 2011. My 2 most popular post here on Memphis Real Estate Buzz were originally posted in 2010:
1. Your house may have come from Sears – is a primer on the Sears “kit” homes of the early 20th century, and an introduction to identifying if your house may have been shipped in on a train.
2. Memphis Lustron – Mid-Centrury steel – about one of a couple of intact, post-WWII, all-metal homes left in Memphis.
3. Realtor Association gets deeper into politics (4/20/2011) addresses the National Association of Realtors increased political activity.
4. Practical use of QR codes in real estate (3/14/2011) – QR codes were a big topic in 2011. The 2-dimensional, mobile-scannable grids have not caught on on as much in Memphis as they have in other parts of the country, especially in real estate.
Lustron Home - Midtown Memphis
5.Ghost towns are the result of recession and the burst housing bubble (1/6/2011) -Economics, the housing bubble and the sluggish economy have created ghost towns across America.
6. Don’t overlook Midtown Memphis condos (7/28/2011) Mention Memphis condos, and most people think of Downtown; however, Midtown has reasonably priced, convenient condos available.
Stick around in 2012. I am sure there will be plenty of things happening in real estate. The market might even improve, and I will be here to tell you about it.
One little housekeeping item: I am trying to figure out a simple way to merge this blog with my updated main real estate site https://spake.com. If you are an RSS subscriber, I have already addressed that. Stay tuned, and check out the blog over at spake.com – It features re-posts from here, my other blog, and interesting real estate, social media and Memphis links.
