About a month ago, I wrote a blog post about Oklahoma tornadoes, and at that time I guess I should’ve knocked on wood. You see, when I wrote this post, I had only been caught up in a tornado twice in my life. At about 1:45 this morning, that changed. I found myself, my wife, […]

March 29, 2008 by
Well, it took our local association almost a month, but they’ve finally published the stats for home sales in February, and once again we’ve got good news to report here in Central Oklahoma, although we did see a small drop in overall volume for the first time in quite a while. Hopefully this summary will help you see […]
Going, Going, Gone
March 28, 2008 by
“Going, Going, Gone” is the tune to new regulations set forth by the mortgage industry. As of the end of March 2008, mortgage insurance companies have changed their standards for insuring conventional loans. They will no longer insure loans over 97% Loan To Value and many are making changes to their acceptable Debt Ratio requirements. For the […]
Edmond's Territorial School House Open to the Public
March 27, 2008 by
Those of us who’ve been around Edmond for a while are proudly aware of the Territorial School House, located at 124 E. Second St. I find myself in awe every time I drive by it. Those who don’t know about it soon will. This school house was the first public school house for children in […]
Downtown Edmond Improvements Continue
March 27, 2008 by
The scale of improvements being made to the downtown area the past few years is quite impressive, and they don’t appear to be slowing any time soon. This is yet another example of our city’s forward thinking and willingness to improve on an already great thing. At the heart of all of these improvements is […]
Fenwick Addition of Edmond OK, March 2008 Activity
March 26, 2008 by
As I said yesterday, it’s been a busy week around here… we’re in the midst of that time of year when buyers are out in full force looking for a new place to call home, and many home owners have it on their mind to get listed and take advantage of that buyer traffic. As a result, I got […]
Copper Creek Addition of Edmond OK, March 2008 Activity
March 25, 2008 by
It’s been a busy week around here… the home buyers are out in full force and we’ve had more requests than normal for information about certain neighborhoods. While researching the Copper Creek addition (SE corner of NW 178th & Penn) yesterday, I thought now would be a good time to post a summary of what’s selling, […]
Edmond Home Buyers – Better to Rent or Buy?
March 24, 2008 by
Yep, it’s pretty much an age-old question that’s asked all the time. Why should I buy a home instead of renting? After several years in this business, and owning a few homes of my own, I’ve got all kinds of examples of why it’s better for most people to own, rather than to rent. You’ll […]
My Easter Gift to You
March 23, 2008 by
In the spirit of this wonderful Holiday, I thought I’d share something with you that was passed along to me by a dear friend recently. If you have a few minutes to spare, this video is WELL worth the time it takes to watch. For the faithful, it puts in perspective what He did for […]
Woodvine, Edmond OK Activity Report, March 2008
March 22, 2008 by
So, what’s selling, what’s not, and what’s new on the market in Woodvine? You’d be amazed at how often I get asked “What did that house around the corner sell for” or “How much is that house on X street listed for?” As a result, I designed this report to keep you up-to-date on inventory levels, […]
