As I woke up this morning, the sun was shining and it was COLD! However, I checked my email and looked over some messages that had been sent overnight and I felt downright optimistic! It felt like Spring! By that I mean, a good portion of my listings were being shown, agents were calling for more information and the buyers I have been working with seem to be getting down to "brass tacks".
Tonight I'll be attending the Inaugural Dinner for our WSalem Association of Realtors and I look forward to seeing a good number of familiar faces from the local real estate industry. As we make merry and well wish our counterparts the best for the upcoming year, I am going to make sure I share with them this ray of hope that I felt amidst all of the bleak news that we are smothered with everyday.
Our local economy has taken a hit, but not like other parts of the country and we are adding jobs to this area, especially Kernersville. Volvo/Mack Trucks, LeBleu, Fed/Ex Air and Ground, TexWipe, Michaels, Cook Out, and other various small business and shops around town just to name a few...So though our familiar job landscape is changing, let's remember not to get mired down in the national media feel and let's continue to work our way out of this recession.
