Safe Havens in Real Estate- Pitch the cow over the fence some hay Jakie!

By
Industry Observer

Louis Jones of Kiplinger.com just posted a most interesting article. And since I'm a born and raised Lancastrian, I just had to boast about it. I don't particularly care for boasting, but as my late father liked to say, "It ain't braggin if you can back it up!" Of course, he didn't boast about himself much either.

According to the expert, Lancaster is the top safe haven for real estate. Follow this link to read all of what he had to say.

Lancaster is A SAFE HAVEN FOR REAL ESTATE.  Come to Lancaster, PA. and see.

Soon the whole country will be pitching the cow over the fence some hay and serving Shoefly Pie.

Fran: We live out in the country and my background is our scenery here... right by our creek, which is spanned by a concrete bridge. This bridge replaced the old uncovered wooden bridge washed out in a flood in the 1930's. Every time the buggys hit that bridge it sounds like a small earthquake in our house. I love it!

Viktor: Last I heard there are over 1200 agents in our county. It appears that some didn't sell a single home this past year! Whew! I think it's time to cut the herd a little eh? Good to hear from you.
