Chattanooga Real Estate Blog

Beth, over at A Cup of Coffey visited Chattanooga over the weekend and took some great photos.  She also had some really nice things to say about our area in a post she titled Chattanooga:  More than a Choo Choo

Chattanooga’s a lovely town, surrounded by mountains and the Tennessee River.

Come visit us anytime!

I got back in town Friday evening from my vacation.  I have been running like a mad woman since I got home.  Worked all weekend including the holiday.  It’s been some long hours and I’ve been beat by the time I get home.  I think things are going to calm down a little now so I’ll have time to post. 

Starting tomorrow I’ll be continuing the Code of Ethics series. 

Have a great night!

It’s not about whether you agree or disagree with the war we are involved with at this time.  It’s about all those men and women who went before and paid the ultimate price.

This Memorial weekend take some time to remember the past and if you see a soldier, give them a hug.

Don’t expect to see much of me this week.  I’m on vacation in Grand Bahama!!  I’m taking a break this morning and thought I would make a quick post.

This is the view I wake up to every morning

Movers and Real Estate Directory is a relatively new directory dedicated to providing a source to all things moving.  The statement on their home page reads: 

Find Your Mover, Movers & Moving Services, Real Estate Directory is the leading directory of Real Estate Agents and Moving Companies.
We offer comprehensive information on moving, including Auto Transport, Lawyers, International Movers and more!

The site is divided into several different services with what will be links to providers or other directories.  Unfortunately almost every link I clicked on produced no results including the “About Us” page.  There are 3 pages that provide some good content however:  Moving Checklist, Packing Tips, and Moving with Kids.  These pages provide information that anyone who is relocating will find useful.

I believe the site has good potential.  The intent and design of the site is well thought out and implemented.  It is easy to navigate and doesn’t have a lot of distracting activity taking place.  It just needs to attract more companies who pay $39.00 for a regular link, $59.00 for a feature link or a free reciprocal link from a page rank 3 homepage.  I would say check back in a month or two and this site will be full of moving resources.

This is a paid review of Movers and Real Estate Directory from ReviewMe!.
