shreveport real estate: Condo vs. Townhome
- 06/17/13 05:58 AM
Most people use the terms condo and townhouse interchangeably. But is there a difference between the two? And if so, is it that big a deal? Well, although these two types of homes seem similar there are a few subtle, and not so subtle, differences. First off, there is the condominium, a term that commonly brings to mind a rental property on a beach somewhere for vacationers or high up in the Rockies for recreational skiers.

shreveport real estate: Shreveport Real Estate Market Statistics for May 2013
- 06/05/13 04:39 AM
So far this year the housing market in Shreveport has been a buyers' market, for the most part. For thosewho are not in the real estate biz and may not understand what that means, here goes in non-realtor lingo: a buyer's market is one in which there is a seeming plethora of homes for sale and the buyers in that area basically get their pick.
However, in April things slowed down a bit, leveling Shreveport real estate into a pretty neutral market. And as April turned to May, the story remained the same. The market stats for the greater Shreveport area for … (2 comments)

shreveport real estate: Make Your Shreveport-Bossier Home Sell Faster: Part 1
- 05/21/13 05:07 AM
There always seems to be that one home in the neighborhood that stays on the market forever. The for sale sign becomes a fixture in the yard, almost like a reminder that the endeavor to sell the home has been a failure thus far. Why do some homes sell lightning fast while others take seemingly forever to nab a buyer? Although it could very well be that the price of the home and the actual home value don't match up, it could also be a number of factors contributing to the non-sale. But there are some practical steps that homeowners can take to … (0 comments)
