I have just rolled out a new Logan Martin Lake Real Estate Blog.  I received an opprotunity I could not turn down, I was contacted by a brokerage company and they offered me the domain at what I thought was a steal.  So I decided to use it as a blog.   I will make this blog open for guest blogging.  If you are an agent on a lake exspecailly and would like to guest blog, be sure to send me a message.  I will more than likly just let this site run on auto pilot for a while.   Also if you are in need of some SEO help, I do a really good job with it.  Just google Alabama Homes and you will see my Alabama Homes and Condos .com website.   While your looking around please go to my Birmingham Homes page and hit the Google plus 1 button. 12/02/2011

Alabama Power provides a cool little tool to check Logan Martin Lake Water Levels and other Alabama lakes within the Coosa River Lake system.  The importance of knowing the lake water levels varies from person to person, but for the most part Logan Martin Lake residents use this information to navigate and enjoy their own property.  Logan Martin Lake Real Estate agents like myself use the information to help and assist lake clients visualize a potential property at the winter pool and to see if the full summer level will accommodate their needs. BKS2YVZV6VU6     <a href="http://www.alabamahomesandcondos.com/Logan-Martin-Lake-Homes-for-sale.php" data-mce-href="http://www.alabamahomesandcondos.com/Logan-Martin-Lake-Homes-for-sale.php">Logan Martin Lake</a> 10/16/2011

I was looking at the numbers today on the Birmingham MLS system and I never realized that Springville, Al Real Estate had gotten so vast.  As of today they have 143 listed properties and in the last year Springville home sales are around 97 which is pretty good for a small town with out the major attraction that say Pell City has with Logan Martin Lake. I have not checked the official numbers but next to Pell City (with 189 active listings and 150 sold units last year) and Moody (with 136 active listings and 159 sold units last  year)  I think Springville, Alabama could be the 3rd largest growing city in Saint Clair County. Springville Alabama is a great alternative to Birmingham it is still close enough for a short commute to work while giving you that peaceful country living. Just in ... 03/11/2011

Fox Hollow a New Home Community in Pell City       There seems to be a lot of New Home starts in Fox Hollow of Pell City lately.  There also seems to be a trend to move away from the lower end homes priced around $113,200 to $139,900 to the Higher $160-$180 range.  This could be due in part because of the new St. Vincents "St. Clair" Hospital and the new VA Hospital coming to town.  No matter what the reason its always good to see new homes going up. Currently there are 5 new homes listed in the Fox Hollow Subdivision in Pell City for Sale and around 3 more going up so it seems to be looking real good for the New Home Community of Fox Hollow. All that being said be sure to check out our new page about Fox Hollow a New Home Community in Pell City for all the new home listings and if you ... 02/21/2011

In this economy (which is getting better, by the way) I am thrilled to say that I just got a cash offer on a house that is not a foreclosure. PLUS, the buyer wants to close in 2 weeks! What?? I had almost forgotten the days of good ol' quick deals. I am reminiscing of days past when our economy was a big hustle and bustle to buy. I needed this little refresher. I love memories. It reminds me that today, all the hard work it takes for each deal, is just as good as the old days. I am being trained to be better in my job during this tough time. Naturally, the bad agents are being weeded out in the process. I am grateful that I can morph, learn, change, and grow with these times. I feel I am becoming a better Realtor. I know that I am educated more now just by hanging in during this ride of... 11/18/2010

What A Perfect Ending To A Beautiful Day In Pell City AL I realize now why I started leaving my Casio point and shoot camera in my purse.

What a perfect ending to a beautiful day. 11/10/2010

More and more people are looking towards local freshwater lakes for a weekend, second or retirement home.  Why?  Partially due to the close proximity to major metropolitan areas; as well as the economic benefits of lower pricing than would be found in traditional gulf coast properties.  Even with the surplus and plummeting sales prices of available homes on the gulf coast, it still makes more sense for many buyers to consider the lower cost option of a lake home or mountain chalet.  You can often find these types of properties within a short one to three hour drive.  Many of these properties and communities are geared around the weekend or vacationing homeowner.  One such development is located in Pell City, Alabama.  Horizons on Logan Martin Lake offers homes priced from $200,000 to $6... 11/10/2010

This Beautiful Confederate Rose Is Still Blooming On Logan Martin Lake And Offers Something Special I went to take a  picture of a listing on Logan Martin Lake this week to use to promote an open house that I am going to have on Sunday. As I was taking the picture, I notice on the left side of the house a tree that was blooming two different color blooms. Talking about catching my attention, I walked up to the tree and sure enough there were pink blooms and white blooms and one flower that was pink tipped in white. How unusual it was to see a tree like this. I had not seen this before and found it fascinating and something that I think is very special.  When I started to take some pictures of the tree the heavens opened up, and the rain started pouring.  I only got pictures of the pink ... 11/05/2010
