I am proud of Nashville and our citizens

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!

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…

I feel a thorough reporting of recent experience with a well known mortgage broker coming on.

Brentwood Real Estate

Nashville — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 22:10:23 +0000

Brentwood is a family-oriented, affluent, historic neighborhood in Nashville. This highly desirable, vibrant development is home to gorgeous, smaller town home communities and larger gated communities which were carved out of old horse and dairy farms and enjoy a peaceful setting. Brentwood features fabulous amenities which include a spectacular infrastructure (near downtown and the Nashville International Airport), reputable schools (including the high ranking Brentwood High School), breath-taking parks (Granny White Park), excellent shopping options (Cool Springs Mall and Green Hills Mall), first rate restaurants, and a marvelous library. This dazzling jewel of a community boasts a thriving business district and benefits from Nashville’s stable economy in the high tech, retail, banking, transportation, and manufacturing industries as well.

Brentwood enjoys close proximity to esteemed colleges (Belmont and Vanderbilt Universities), stunning national parks (Bicentennial Mall State Park and Carnton Plantation), many excellent golf courses, various concert venues and theaters, the 67,000 seat Adelphia Coliseum (home to the NFL Titans), the Grand Ole Opry House, and Wave Country (a water slide and amusement park).

Brentwood consists of 41.23 square miles with a population just over 35,000. Within this relatively small community you will find 90% of the land is residential or recreational use and the remaining 10% commercial space. Homes in Brentwood span the range from new and existing construction in typical residential communities, existing homes in older established neighborhoods, and historic estates and mansions. In order to keep population density down, Brentwood has recently enacted a 1-acre lot minimum on new construction going forward. Over 60 residential subdivisions are included within the city of Brentwood. Because of its central location in the area as well as the rapid growth in property values it has become one of the most coveted locations for executives and other professionals relocating to Middle Tennessee.

Brentwood spans both Williamson and Davidson Counties and there are vast differences in prices between the two counties. In 2007 Brentwood homes in Williamson County sold for an average of $690,000 while in Davidson County the average was $334,000. Part of this vast difference is the average square footage of a Brentwood home in Williamson County is 4,160 while in Davidson County the average home is 2,800 square feet, but property in Williamson County generally commands a higher price tag.

Brentwood is proudly known as a ‘pillow community’ because it is primarily residential and the crime rate is very low. Brentwood public and private schools are recognized throughout the Southeast and our youth soccer program is known nationally.
