Charlotte, NC Relocation Package: History 102 - 02/25/08 10:59 PM
HISTORY 102:  By 1913, rail lines spread from Charlotte in eight directions, making Charlotte a major transportation hub. In the mid-1960's, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed a comprehensive civil rights act which made it illegal to discriminate in voting, the use of public facilities and education.  It was then that education gave Charlotte its' historical headway.  Following a landmark case-Swann vs. the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Board of Education-busing was used as a tool to help integrate schools.  By the early 1970s, Charlotte became known as the "city that made integration work."
Since then, Charlotte has continued to change and prosper. Our growth and success was rewarded … (9 comments)

Why Should You Buy a Home NOW? I'll SHOW You Why! - 02/19/08 03:18 PM
Regardless of the facts showing the positive numbers that we're seeing here in NC, Buyers are shying away from the market because of the national 'news' and the hype that we're in the midst of a recession.  We are a bit slower than we were in 2005 - 2007 when our appreciation was at an all-time high (20+%), and now, in NC, standing just over 4%.  Any way that you look at the numbers, now is a great time to buy and I'll show you why!

Charlotte, NC Relocation Information: MYERS PARK HISTORY & DEMOGRAPHICS - 02/16/08 08:04 PM
Myers Park, one of Charlotte’s premier neighborhoods is one of Charlotte's finest planned suburb. The 1200-acre farm, originally owned by John Spring Myers whose son-in-law, George Stephens finally developed the neighborhood, ran from Charlotte to Providence Presbyterian Church. In 1905, John Nolen, a Harvard graduate who later became a well known landscape architect, designed the site on which the neighborhood is located.
Myers Park retains much of its original flavor and we believe it is a neighborhood worth protecting to the standard set by its founders when it was developed. The original plan for the George Stephens Company, was to … (6 comments)

As I was showing a property today near the Uptown area in Dilworth, I noticed that the skyline included another new crane, which led me to follow the maze of new construction into the area to see which project was moving forward.  Almost 2.7 million commercial square feet, currently being erected in the Uptown area right now still won’t be enough to meet the demand of Charlotte’s growing economy.
The Charlotte Chamber of Commerce has compiled the newest set of numbers revealing that over 1,300 new or expanding firms are investing $2.3 billion in Charlotte’s future infrastructure.  With a vacancy rate … (6 comments)
