Activity in the Twin Falls area

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Magic Valley Realty DB26297

It is amazing driving around the Twin Falls area and seeing all of the commercial activity taking place. From the new St. Lukes hospital to Walmart, the new CanyonRidge High School, several new hotels, and a few million dollars of other commercial activity, I think someone forget to tell them that we are in the middle of a recession. After having been in Twin Falls for over 40 years now, I have seen times like this come and go. Many of the people that I meet from the central valley of California tell me how much our area reminds them of the central region of that state some 35-40 years ago. I think that helps us to see how much growth potential we have yet to realize. I don't think my wife and I are going to be building a house just know, family responsibilities are going to keep us where we are, but I am on the lookout for some great real estate deals. When all of this commercial activity gets finished, the market will no doubt have rebounded, and I hope to be in a good position to profit from it, as has many of my clients.

Brian,

Welcome to active rain!

You and I have opportunity to do each other a favor; we are both in the same business with the same interest and have clients who come and go--possibly from central Illinois to your area and vice-versa.

While we can't control who is moving, or where they are going to live next, I sure would like it if there were someone out there in the real estate business, in your area, with whom I could build a working relationship with. That way if a seller is moving to your area, I could recommend you. Also, I could recommend you if my buyer had to sell in your area prior to buying a home here. And, of course, you could do the same for me if your people had business in my area.

Sounds like a fair trade.

I pay brokers 30% for all closed referrals to Central Illinois.

Central Illinois is Home to Caterpillar, Kraft Food, Carle Hospital, Decatur Memorial Hospital, University of Illinois, Millikin University, Archer Daniels Midland and so much more.
