Migration Trends
Where did people move in 2011? According to the Atlas Van Lines 2011 Migration Patterns Study, Southwestern and Mid-Atlantic coastal states were the most popular destinations. The study provides a snapshot of relocation trends over the course of the year. States that lost more residents than they gained are classified as outbound states, while those that gained more residents than they lost are classified as inbound states.
For the sixth year in a row, Washington, D.C. had the highest percentage of inbound moves, while Ohio had the largest percentage of outbound moves. Meanwhile, Michigan, which had been losing residents for the past six years, became a balanced state, where there were as many inbound moves as outbound.

Cozy, Comfortable, Luxurious & Private
480 S. Emma Avenue sold at asking price of $369,000, just a few days after coming onto the market.
In getting the home ready for sale, carpets were removed to show off the beautiful wood floors that had been covered and protected for years, windows were washed inside and out, and every surface of the house was scrubbed to give the home that extra sparkle. To neutralize and emphasize the home’s spaciousness, the walls were painted with the perfect light color. The yard was spruced up and flowers added to give that extra curb appeal. The service providers did a wonderful job getting the home ready. (I’d be happy to share their names with you!) The final step was to stage the house to make the home more inviting while buyers toured through.
Located in a neighborhood where very few two bathrooms exist, this home had quite a bit of activity with multiple offers coming in.
Be ahead of the curve! If you are looking for a home and competing with the hundreds of other buyers out there, it helps to know ahead of time what is about to come on the market. That’s where I bring you added value.
So call me and let’s talk about the features you are interested in. I have a vast network of resources to get you to where you want to go, on time and with peace of mind.
Congrats to both the Seller and the Buyer of 480 S. Emma Avenue!
