Nashville — Mon, 10 May 2010 14:01:31 +0000

Wow, what a week here in Nashville. We all watched as the rains came… then we watched what has been described as a “train” of rain cells line up and unload on our city. I have to say… after seeing the damage and the preliminary clean up that I am Proud to live in this great city and am so grateful to all who have helped us start the recovery process. Here in Nashville, you dont see a lot of folks complaining, looting (we have had only 7 looting arrests. 7!!)… Here in Nashville, we just get to work on the problem. If you have been considering Nashville for your future home: we are ready to have you (give us a couple of weeks to clean up). If you already live here: What a great city this is!

$8000.00 Credit deadline extended!

Nashville — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 23:19:58 +0000

According to a news article I just read, the Senate has agreed to extend the first time homebuyer credit for a few months. Great news… Also, if you have owned a home before… but not in the last 3 years, you may still qualify for all or part of the credit. Here is the story from the Associated Press (AP) WASHINGTON – Senators have agreed to extend a popular tax credit for first-time homebuyers and to offer a reduced credit to some repeat buyers.

The tax credit provides up to $8,000 to first-time homebuyers but is set to expire at the end of November.

A spokeswoman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said senators agreed Wednesday to extend the existing tax credit for first-time homebuyers while offering a reduced credit of up to $6,500 to repeat buyers who have owned their current homes for at least five years.

A congressional aide said the tax credits would be available to homebuyers who sign sales agreements by the end of April. They would have until the end of June to close on their new homes. The aide, who spoke on condition of anonymity, was not authorized to publicly discuss the deal.

A cooler summer here in Nashville

Nashville — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 14:59:00 +0000

According the the Associated Press, we had a cooler than average summer. It is 68F here right now… finally feels like Fall is around the corner.

Here are some statistics from http://www.nws.noaa.gov/

“National Weather Service records show that for the meteorological summer – the months of June, July and August – Nashville got more than an inch and a half more rain than usual.

The average temperature for Nashville was cooler by one-half of one degree. While July was notably cool and August was also cooler than usual, a warm June bumped up the seasonal average.

Nashville recorded only 28 days during which high temperatures reached 90 degrees or above during the summer. The usual number is 43.

Rainfall totaled 12.70 inches during the three months – 1.57 inches above normal. June and July had more rain than usual, while August was drier.”

Pretty cool…
