My first time...

By
Real Estate Sales Representative with Dallas City Center

Just left a training class on blogging so I am going to give it a try.  Not many firsts once you hit 40.

 

I feel for many of the Realtors throughout the country that are struggling with very tough markets.  I am very thankful to work in a market that has neighborhoods that are actually thriving.  The Dallas real estate market has remained stable overall.  I live and specialize in Lake Highlands but also work in all of the neighborhoods surrounding White Rock Lake.  Many changes in my personal market area are going to have a very positive impact on home values so some of my future blogs will be bringing that information to the general public and other agents.  Wow, that wasn't too hard for my first time.

Kevin - Congratulations on writing your first blog. It does get easier - the only thing that does not ever seem to change is the amount of time it takes to write them.

Welcome to Active Rain. Happy Blogging!

I too was in your shoes not too long ago, Kevin.  After my first blog, and the multiple responses to it, I found it became  easier to blog.  Like Dallas, the Austin market is doing well and is stable!!  Keep up the bloggin.

Hi Kevin,

Welcome to the Rain! See it wasn't as hard as you thought. In fact you'll need to watch out because it can become additive.

Susan- You know it is not really hard but a little awkward...I just wonder if what I have to say is really interesting.
