Melody Ranch - 11/23/09 04:57 PM
Melody Ranchis a very unique subdivison located just South of Jackson Hole.  It is a wonderful "family" neighborhood.  Most of the homes built in Melody Ranch have been built in the last 10 years.  Many homes in the subdivision have Teton views.  There are also open spaces and ponds to give Melody Ranch character and privacy.  Currently, there are 16 homes and 2 building sites available according to the MLS.  In the past two weeks, one Melody Ranch home has closed and three have gone under contract.  If you have any questions or would like to view any Melody Ranch properties, give us a call.
Below are a few pictures … (0 comments)

Facebook - 11/18/09 04:28 PM
I do not consider myself as technologically inept, but I have been struggling over the last couple of days to make a facebook page for Spring Creek Ranch Realty.  I think that I have finally figured it out.  Being a new real estate agent, I have begun educating myself on the ins and outs of blogging, facebook, widgets(whatever those are), and many other things.  The one thing that dissapoints me is that we, as a society, depend so much on these social networks that we don't get the face to face time that I think there used to be with clientelle.  Don't get … (4 comments)

Change In The Market - 11/16/09 02:26 PM
As of late, I have been observing what seems to be a change in the market for the better.  It is our "slow" season here in Jackson Hole, but I don't believe the hype that the real estate market is dead.  From September 1, 2009 to today there have been 97 listings closed or placed under contract in the Jackson area.  Last year, during the same time period, there were 60 listings closed in the Jackson area.  Maybe there hasn't been a surplus of sales, but it seems that there is a heartbeat, and possibly a change in the market.  Our … (0 comments)

Veteran's Day - 11/12/09 11:35 AM

I didn't get a chance to say Happy Veteran's Day yesterday, so Happy Veteran's Day and thank you to all who have served and are still serving.  In todays troubled political times, you have to remember that we have men and women still in harms way and doing the best they know how with what little they have.  We must stay in the fight and give these soldiers everything that they deserve in order to WIN these conflicts.

Elk - 11/10/09 12:21 PM
I got up at 4:45 this morning to go elk hunting to no avail.  Though it was another beautiful morning and there were a bunch of moose out there, no elk are moving through the Teton National Park.  Low and behold, when I got home there were a bunch of elk in my driveway.

These damn elk are way too smart for me!

Split Creek Ranch - 11/09/09 12:12 PM
No expense was spared and no detail left un-attended to in the design and construction of this Canadian Lodge pole and Montana Moss Stone estate located in Split Creek Ranch.  The owner designed and was involved all along in the construction process, insuring nothing was overlooked.  The result is a magnificent home made for the ultimate in good living.  This Split Creek Ranch estate contains hand-hewn logs throughout, plentiful fossil rock counter tops, walls, and stairs with a stack-stone water feature in the entry.  All lighting was custom designed and built for the home.  Browning gun safe adds a spectacular rustic feel.  … (2 comments)

Elk Hunt - 11/06/09 12:22 PM

This mornings elk hunt was gorgeous, cool, and very crisp, but there were no animals to be seen.  We need some snow to push these animals across the river to their feed grounds.  There were 5 bull moose in front of us fighting for a cow which was pretty funny to watch.  The two larger bulls were ganging up on the smaller ones to push them out of the area.  Made for a cool morning, but not a great elk hunt.  It was still a nice place to be...See the pictures below.
