"Staycation" Theme for Home Show

In tough economic times with home sales down, many exhibitors at the 40th Annual Spring HomeShow and Better Living Expo at the Salem Civic Center count on homeowners to make improvements on the homes they already own. This weekend over 100 exhibitors, from Absolute Insulation to Xpert Foundations, look for consumers to invest in their largest financial asset. Ten clinics were offered over the weekend, from installing manufactured stone to dealing with wildlife critters to organizing your home. For more information, go to www.rrhba.com/

A Lovely Day

What another wonderful day it was in Roanoke today. It was sunny and, although not balmy, warm enough to stir our memory and remember way back when last spring. Yesterday I went on a listing appointment, filled out all the necessary paperwork, and took photos in preparation for the yearly spring sales rush.

I'm pleased to add a really nice starter home to what's currently on the market. Since it's not officially on the market yet, I can't say much about it. However, I think I can get away with posting this photo of a really cute little crocus.

Stay tuned to learn all about this great home, coming on the market very very soon!
