If you're a first time home buyer in the Louisville area we'd love to have you stop by our First Time Home Buyer Seminar this Tuesday, 4/21/2009 from 6:00 - 8:00.   We're having pizza and will be sharing lots of useful information including the $8,000 First Time Home Buyer Tax Credit.  Which, by ...

I was fortunate enough to escape to Florida last month and realized even though I thought I understood what had happened to the real estate market there, I really didn't understand just how much the market had changed since I owned a home there in 2005.
