July Happenings
July 2017
Normally things tend to slow down in the summertime, but it doesn’t appear it’s going to be that way this year. Between new residential construction, commercial construction, and businesses opening or on the move, there were 22 new subdivisions recorded last month! That’s the most in a month I’ve seen since I entered the business. Check out what is new and if you know anybody looking to buy or sell a home, let me know and I can help them get started.
Enjoy and have a Happy 4th of July!
