First timer...

Hello all. This is my first ever blog, so bear with me. I'm hoping that as I grow my business selling real estate in the Raleigh area, I can blog about it and keep everyone informed of the market. We just made a BIG switch. We are now with Allen Tate Realtors. We still have our team - The Alderson Group and still have the same website, which is www.thealdersongroup.com. All of the team are so excited to be at Allen Tate and are looking forward to what the future may hold for us. 

I do have to admit that I am a bit nervous about our economy these days. I have my fingers crossed that things take a turn up.  My hopes are that in November when we have a new president things will start to make an upward swing. I'm not going to get into politics in this blog, but I think a new president (either one) will jump start all of us.  It is kind of like when you have that old pair of jean that is frayed and has holes in them - you like the jeans but you are in need of a new pair. When you finally go and get that new pair of jeans you realize how great you feel in them and have a new outlook on things and feel more confident. 

I feel so lucky to live where I do. Our housing situation pales in comparison when compared to the rest of the country. People are buying and selling still. Foreclosure rates are higher, but nothing like in other areas. This is such a great place to live, people aren't leaving. Businesses are still trying to come to our area. 

Give me a call or drop me an email if you have any questions about real estate!! 

So in conclusion of my first short blog,  heres to you Raleigh!
