This was National Open House Weekend, and the traffic was pretty good! Buyers are at a fever pitch trying to find a home before the tax credit ends April 30th. Yesterday on the east side, I saw a few buyers, but today in Germantown, I had 12 and 4 at different open houses! Surprising to me was the number of buyers who have a home to sell, but haven't put it on the market yet. The market in months to come is a little uncertain, so getting your home on the market NOW is imperitive! While planning a buyers tour (3 comments)

You have to leave the Emotions at Home to sell your House. It's Okay you are selling your HOUSE not YOUR HOME.... Selling your home is a business decision for your "home and future home." As well as for living your life in the future and making memories. A home is where memories are made and lives are lived. (1 comments)

- 09/22/09 05:00 PM
Oktoberfest celebrations will be held in various locations at this time of year. Germantown will of course have one of their own...it is called Germantown after all! Oktoberfest started almost 2 centuries ago in Munich as an engagement celebration of King Ludwig. It was such a great party, it has continued year after year for the last 176 years. A good time is had by all who partake in the festivities which include eating, drinking, dancing and music. Traditional food includes sausages, kraut,pretzels, and of course very large mugs (ein mass) of beer. Many cities continue this tradition by hosting celebrations. (1 comments)
You might not think there would be ethnic traditions that are tied to the first day of school, but the Germans have it covered! School: A Sweet Start....On the child's first ever day of school, tradition has it in Germany, that the mother would make a tute (two-tah) and fill it with treats for the child. It was meant to sweeten the bitter pill of the first day of school, when life begins in earnest! Like many things, this custom has become commercialized, with tutes being sold in stores ...some of them are huge and measure up to 3 (14 comments)

Training for Triathlons.....While the swim is feared or dreaded by most, (and Wisconsin has seen 3 deaths in races this season) it is my favorite....Partly because I love water and swimming, partly because I really can't run, and my bike is slow.... this great photo was taken by one of our coaches Kelly Steinberg...Kelly is an amazing coach, amazing triathlete, and an amazing photographer!
pat tasker germantown home sales: Das Schmecht Gut! Von Rothenburg's Bier Stube in Germantown, WI
- 08/05/09 04:14 PM
If If you are craving authentic German food and bier, I have the perfect place for you! The Von Rothenburg Bier Stube in Germantown Wi not only looks authentic, it tastes that way too. This picturesque building on Main Street is somewhat compact, but in summer, seating expands as the patio is open for dining. The building is traditional in German architecture, has beautiful stained glass windows, richly carved wood, and is packed with German decor on the inside. http://www.vonrothenburgs.com/home.htm
While the food menu is basic, the bier list is quite long. The food is actually carried across the lot line (2 comments)
