Fishing This Year is Great! - 05/19/09 12:37 PM
Several friends have caught Rockfish over 40 lbs. My neighbor said his friend caught their limit a few weeks ago and all were big one around 40 lbs and it happened in less than an hour. Crabbing is also good this year. When I went to Chesapeake Bounty down the road they were talking about how many crabs were available this year compared to last. Chesapeake Bounty is a great place in St Leonard to buy crabs.

Long Beach in Saint Leonard Featured in the Washington Post Last Weekend! - 05/15/09 01:47 PM
My neighbors were thrilled that Long Beach was featured in the Washington Post. It is a great place to live. I can see the bay from my house and walk to the small beach down the road.
 
The neighborhood is very hilly so many people have views.

We keep our boat in the Flag Harbor Yacht Haven only 1/2 mile away.

Vacation Homes in Southern Maryland Slowed for the First Quarter of 2009. - 05/05/09 12:21 PM
The chart below shows how sales in the first quarter of 2008 were double what they are in the first quarter of 2009. Many of my clients are concerned about their retirement accounts declining due to the stock market. Some clients don't realize they still can get financed for a second home.
                                  
                                      
 Something else I found interesting when reviewing the data for the first quarter of this year is that only 2 transactions were over $430,000. Half of the sales were below $325,000. Last year 4 sold were over $430,000 and 12 sold for under $325,000.
