6 Tips for Finding the Right Neighborhood
When you're buying a home in a new city, it's hard to know if you're making the right choice by choosing a specific house—not to mention an entire neighborhood. Home buyers often ask our REALTORS®, "How do I know if this neighborhood is the right one for my family?"
There are a lot of answers to this question; however, finding your own best place to live is a personal process. Your list of wants, needs, and preferences will shape what you're looking for in a home. Understanding how to prepare, prioritize, and reach an informed decision ultimately goes a long way in finding the right Richmond homes.
When you begin to search for homes in our community, here are six tips to help you get started:

Richmond Is No. 1 Beer Destination in the World
When you think of beer, you might think first about Milwaukee or even about Oktoberfest in Berlin, Germany. If you've followed the recent trends in craft beer, however, you might have heard there's at least one more place that deserves to be mentioned alongside those world capitals of beer.

Selling Your Home - Top Reasons Why FSBOs Fail
If you're the kind of person who likes to do things on your own, you might find the idea of an FSBO sale – for sale by owner – intriguing. Unfortunately, the benefits that people expect often fail to materialize ... and the final sale turns out to be much less profitable than planned.
Homeowners who are going into their first sale often believe they can save money and even speed up the process by going it alone. When things go poorly at first, it's easy for inexperienced sellers to double down and feel like they just need to "tough it out." By the time they decide to work with a qualified real estate agent, they may have done more harm than good selling their home.
By the time someone is there to get the sale on track, trends in the housing market could be shifting. Sometimes, the changes are positive ones. In many cases, though, sellers find themselves running after the initial conditions that persuaded them to sell in the first place.
That can be a disaster – it could even sabotage the prospects for selling at all.
