Honestly, I have never felt quite this good about not getting a listing…
This is a short post about a home I did NOT list for sale in Country Club North, one of the neighborhoods in Fayetteville, NC in which I specialize. Country Club North is an established neighborhood of executive-style and single family homes in northwest Fayetteville, very near to Fort Bragg and very close to major shopping areas. Country Club North is a great neighborhood, featuring wide streets with bike lanes, gentle, rolling hills and lots of green spaces. Here is a Google map of the neighborhood.
For a few years, I marketed heavily to Country Club North, and had quite a bit of success there selling some wonderful homes. Recently, after a 2-3 year “sabbatical” in my business in which I had two very curly-headed baby girls, I resumed marketing and listing homes in Country Club North. Thankfully, sellers there remembered me, and I’ve been able to list a few homes.

Who was it that first said, “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing”? Alexander Pope, I think, although others have borrowed it quite a bit.
Nevertheless, it’s very true, in my case
For a long time, I have been marketing all of the homes I have for sale in Fayetteville, NC on the internet, in a variety of different places–the MLS, Realtor.com, KW.com, my blog, Viddler, etc. Each time I would add a new home for sale, I would try to write a description of the home that would appeal to buyers, and would highlight some of the better features of the home. I was very good at making a home sound appealing!

Home warranties are wonderful budget-saving plans to help cover the expense of repair of some of a home’s major components when they fail. Unlike hazard homeowner’s insurance policies, home warranties do not cover catastrophic losses but do cover some pretty important components of your home that can possibly have a drastic impact on your budget if you’re not financially able to cover them were they to break down.
When selling a home, most sellers offer the new buyer 12 month home warranty coverage which can be renewed by the buyer at the end of the initial 12 month period.
While very helpful, home warranties have often been a great source of frustration for homeowners.

Buying the right home in the Terry Sanford School District, or in the case of my clients, the Alma Easom Elementary School area means you have to move quickly. Terry Sanford is one of the most desired school districts in Fayetteville, NC and houses for sale in Terry Sanford can sell even before they hit the Multiple Listing Service. One of my latest listings in the Terry Sanford School District sold in just days, and I blogged about the beautiful home my sellers had for sale and the multiple offers my sellers received on their home!
The national media has recently painted a picture of a declining real estate market, and indeed, in many areas, that is an accurate portrait. But, real estate really is a very local market, and even in a sluggish market nationally, or state-wide, or even city-wide, there are areas that defy the trend and sell very well.

You could make a movie out of what happened here in Fayetteville and Fort Bragg, NC this Independence Day weekend, but no one would believe it!
Traditionally, we have a full slate of activities to celebrate the birthday of our nation here in America’s Hometown. We love to celebrate freedom, and we spend a long weekend doing just that. On Friday, I wrote about why There’s No Place Quite Like Fayetteville and Fort Bragg for the 4th of July. But, then some events occurred that threatened to derail the whole weekend.
Like every other year, the community planned to cap off our days of celebration with a full day of activities hosted by Fort Bragg on the Main Post parade field. This year, the 82nd Division (Airborne) Band was set to play a program of music followed by an always awesome fireworks display. Continue reading →

We have a saying here in Fayetteville and Fort Bragg, NC and around Pope Air Force Base.
When a piece of heavy equipment rumbles by, or the boom of artillery rattles some windows, or an A-10 “Warthog” or a C-130 fly by, we yell out over the noise, “That’s the sound of freedom!”
The 4th of July is an especially important holiday for us, and we love to celebrate it. Freedom is a very real and tangible concept to us in Fayetteville. Our community is filled with people who have served their country for many years, and in many dangerous and rough places. World War II veterans, Korean War and Vietnam vets, and Panama and Gulf War veterans are now joined by a great number who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan, some on their 3rd or 4th tours. Freedom isn’t just a noble sounding word here; it’s a commitment, and a trying one at that. It’s the thing that soldiers leave their families for, that many risk their lives for, and that we all believe in, no matter what our politics are. Continue reading →
