Pepperwood Grill's Grand ReOpening in Greensburg,PA takes place tonight!
Decisions, decisions. There are so many wonderful options for us here in central Westmoreland County to enjoy fine foods, great wines, and fun entertainment. And of course on every Friday night during the summer we are treated to Summersounds Concerts In The Park at St. Clair Park in Greensburg. Tonight the Concert features Hayes Carll as he brings his colorful brand of character-driven Texas country to Western PA. A good place to be - in the shade on the hillside, drinking in the scenes and sounds. Bring you friends, your family and your dogs. Chill out with … (3 comments)

local: Estimate of Closing Costs
- 02/08/11 12:22 PM
Dear Vance,
An accounting client of mine asked me how much closing costs she should expect when she sells her house. Does you have something that would indicate to a seller how much closing costs to expect? Thanks! MM
Dear MM,
I am going to forward a "Net Sheet Analysis" we use with our clients to detail for them what to expect. It is a spreadsheet they can work on to quickly get a pretty close approximation of closing costs and what their net expense looks like.
Other than the commission itself, the largest item is typically the Transfer Tax which is shared equally between … (2 comments)

local: Bamboozled By The Weather
- 02/02/11 10:24 AM
Like most of us across 2/3 of the US I went to bed last night fearing the onslaught of the storm that forecasters were calling the worst in decades. Being firmly within the band of ice shown on all the weather maps I expected awakening to my porch doors being frozen shut solidly.
So I open my eyes bright and early today and venture forth, coffee in hand to survey the damage. Imagine my consternation at bright, clear, star-filled skies and a temperature in the upper 40's?! By 9AM the sun burned fiercely bright, heralding a lovely day?! By 10AM the temperatures had broached … (3 comments)

SOME WONDERFUL RESTAURANT OPTIONS IN GREENSBURG, PA
A couple nights ago I visited my son Erik (my real estate partner and sometime bartender) at One Eleven and "forced myself" to enjoy a glass of an extraordinary Ridge Vineyards Paso Robles Zinfandel while I waited for their new featured appetizer Pizzette! Crusty crust of flour and cornmeal drenched in olive oil and fresh garlic and delicately grilled then slathered with fresh cut sauteed sweet onions, layered with fresh spinach and then topped with shaved parmesean and provolone and fired in a super hot oven to crisp. Bring your appetite - this is an appetizer built for kings … (2 comments)

local: Marcellus Shale - Will There Be a Well In My Yard?!? - Part 1
- 11/18/10 06:33 AM
Pennsylvania is blessed (some might say cursed!) with a profusion of natural resources. It is the birthplace of the oil industry - the first oil well in the US was drilled in Titusville in 1859. Oil, coal, coke, iron, and steel created an economic powerhouse unmatched in our history. Even today, though thankfully the pollution-spewing smokestacks are long gone, the state continues its love affair with energy.
The Marcellus Shale underlies most of the western and northern portions of our state - as well as much of the rest of "Appalachia". This geologic gift promises to be a key motherlode of energy for a long time to come. As … (0 comments)
