The long Memorial Day Weekend is just around the corner. Although the holiday naturally inspires thoughts of plump hotdogs and juicy hamburgers on the grill and the fun of gathering with family, it’s primarily a time to reflect on those who have given their lives in the service of our country.
We had originally planned another blog post for today, but when a tragedy like the tornadoes in Oklahoma strikes, it makes you slow down and appreciate all you take for granted on a daily basis. There are no words, only emotions. Our thoughts go out to all those affected. Hold your loved ones close, and keep the good people of Oklahoma in your thoughts and prayers.
Throughout the decades porches have added interest and appeal to a home, as well as being a gathering place for relaxing. I spent part of my childhood in an old home with a large covered front porch. My parents often sat outside in the evening during warm weather, chatting to the neighbors who strolled up and down the street.
An inviting white porch swing provided a comfortable seat for leisurely rocking, something my cousin and I instantly claimed whenever she came to visit. The adults were more than satisfied with wicker chairs sporting comfy overstuffed pillows. Eventually, my cousin and I would scuttle into the yard, leaving the adults to converse and reflect on the day.

A recent article in our local Home Builder’s Association newsletter revealed the results of a survey taken by thousands of current home buyers. According to the report, buyers are interested in homes that exceed the square footage of those they are leaving, but still about 13% smaller than the average size of the homes started last year.
From the moment we met, our Brownstone agent treated us with the utmost courtesy and respect. His honesty and knowledge of the real estate business gave us the assurance that any first time buyer seeks.

Our Brownstone agent was referred to us from a colleague. From the beginning, his service to us was superior and it was evident he had our best interests in mind. We could not have been any happier with his service.

My Brownstone agent made my first experience with buying a home extremely simple and enjoyable. With being inexperienced, I had a lot of questions and my agent was very patient with me, kind, and willing to answer any and everything.

When I was looking for a home to buy, someone recommended my Brownstone agent to me. After the work that was put into finding the right house for me, there was no better person to have.

Our Brownstone agent was wonderful! She was professional, kind, thoughtful and considerate!
