Is Real Estate Really Picking Up?

Every so often I hear reports on the news of the real estate industry improving. Then I see news articles and information about how interest rates are going up. Those factors make me wonder just how much of an increase in real estate activity there is. And then the next thing you know, there are new real estate firms being started.

That last factor is what made me really start thinking that there might be some truth in what everybody is saying about the real estate industry. Not long ago I was approached by a friend of mine that was looking for someone to build them a web site for real estate. She said that she was starting her own real estate firm and would need somewhere on the Internet to show her listings. I thought  to myself, "is there really that much activity in the real estate industry?" It turns out that there actually is a lot of activity going in the Branson real estate market. I would never have noticed it if I had not taken on my friend's project since it has been a few years since I built a web site for a REALTOR®. But now that I have had to keep up with the market better because of having worked on a Branson real estate site, I see the trends more clearly.

With all the real estate activity in the Branson area, it means that the potential is there for more homes to go on the market. If you have been thinking about selling your property now might be the time to do it according to some experts. However, keep from making any of these home selling mistakes when you go to sell.

So, my unprofessional opinion is yes, it is picking up. That is just what I have concluded from my perspective. But what do I know, I am not a real estate market expert. I am a web developer.

Goin Western - A Number of Ways to Do It

How Do You Go Western?

That is the question I asked myself when I sat down to write this post and I came up with a few different answers. A few of which I'll list here:

Listen to Some Classic Western Boot Music

The music you choose is a way to 'go western', whether you like the classics or the newer stuff, either way you'll find songs about cowboy boots and pickup trucks like that one on YouTube to put you in a cowboy state of mind. But that is only one activity that will get you 'goin western'.

Wear the Clothing and Accessorize

The other aspect of 'goin western'  I wanted to mention is how ya dress. That's pert near the most important thing a guy or gal can do to catch that train goin west. And finding the best western wear and accessories shops  could take the average person quite a little chunk of time if it weren't for the folks that put together this handy western products and services business directory. After all, who better to round up a list of western stuff than someone that knows about it and enjoys the products and services themselves.

Thanks for readin' and we'll see ya next time pardner!

New Classified Ads Site For Branson

Get Your Classifieds Ads Account Free

Just wanted to announce the launch of a new web site designed to help individuals sell their stuff without having to pay to have the ad put in the news paper.

What Can I List On the Site?

Well, the short answer to that one is, "You can put just about any reasonable item on it". What ever you might pay to have placed in the newspaper, you might as well have listed on the branson classified ads site that does not cost you money to list your items.

There is not a lot of items currently on the site at present, but new items are being added all the time. Why not create your free account today?

Disasters and Survival

The recent tornado outbreak really drove home the importance of being ready in a natural disaster.

Just a few days ago a new site was launched to assist with emergency preparedness. On another of my blogs I posted about the site and how it is helping by providing survival kits to help people to cope during the days after being affected by such circumstances.

A survival plan is something that everyone needs to have well in mind BEFORE the event occurs.

New Site Launched

Recently I launched a new website for a client. It was a simple static site with a few pages (these are often called brochure sites).
Anyway, the site is for a Springfield software consultant serving the medical industry. The site is called CORE Consulting, LLC.
