New Hampshire Snow Sculpting Contest

January 27, 2008 By Leave a Comment

Yesterday we had a cancellation of a home inspection because the sellers never had the home de-winterized. I feel bad for the buyers as they have hung in there patiently.

So yesterday Monika and I went to Jackson, NH to view the snow sculpting contest in Jackson Village. Jackson Village is a very nice village in that part of town. I have been there in the past during September playing golf when we have had our REALTOR state convention at Bartlett, NH.

Monika has a post about the snow sculptures too, visit her post to see more photos and her view on the snow sculpting.

I will add to this a little later as I have to get ready for a showing.

New England Patriots vs. The San Diego Chargers

Patriots Helmet Last year I hit the nail on the head when the Pats traveled to San Diego for their DivisionalSan Diego Chargers match up to see who would go to the AFC Championship game against the Colts..
The 2007 season has seen the Pats go out and acquire some great new talent to stay toe to toe with the Indianapolis Colts.

They traded for Randy Moss and signed Wes Welker and Dante Stallworth to shore up the receiver crew. On defense they acquired Baltimore Ravens linebacker Adalius Thomas.

I was adopted on September 22,1955 and I was born on June 3rd, 1954. After many years not knowing who she was, my wife and I tell the following story on how we found my biological mother. It has been an unbelievable two weeks and such a great story. The world just got a little smaller.

A letter to my husbands birth mother… wherever you are.

Prudential Verani Realty Adertising Advantage Comparison Dec. 2006 vs Dec. 2007

January 4, 2008 By Leave a Comment

Our advertising advantage online series here at the New Hampshire Real Estate Golfer brings you statistics for great comparison between December 2006 and 2007 on our website.

I think we can all agree that the market is down and there are fewer buyers out there than before.

It looks like Total sessions are only down 3.3%

Page views are down 11.6% maybe due to fewer homes listed this year than last year?

Absolute Unique Visitors -46% This is significant as I feel there are just fewer people looking and unique means people that have never accessed the site before. These numbers should be lower as there are only so many different people out there searching homes.

Buyer and Seller leads that were looking for more information was down only 5.8%.

Other Brokers showing our listings were down 25.3% way down, probably based on the fact that there are fewer buyers out there than last year.

Monika and I have had the best December on record and we hope January follows suit.
