Towson Real Estate Marney Kirk

An old jail in my town of Towson, Maryland is going to have a new life as a pool, office space, and hopefully a cafe. Placed on the National Historical Registry in 1991, the Warden's building, built in 1858, is being renovated to preserve the original details while providing modern amenities.  I ...

So yesterday was a wonderful day. I have amazing friends both IRL and virtual! I wrote a post on how I love ActiveRain. All of a sudden, I was getting emails about comments. "That's unusual," I thought, "I usually only get a few." So I went back to the home page, and imagine my surprise : FEATURE...

I LOVE Active Rain. There. I said it. It took awhile for me to get into it, because I didn't truly understand it. Why would I want to blog here? Why comment on other agents' posts? So for those who don't understand, this is what it is "about": 1) I learn something new EVERY DAY. I have been an ag...

  I am amazed every day when I go to pull listings for buyers and there is only one photo of the property – the front.   Our MLS allows 30 photos to be posted FOR FREE.   Photos can save time energy and effort for all parties involved!   1) An agent could not waste time previewing or taking a cli...

I wanted to share my love of dogs with you all.   We have, in the past, had three dogs. We love having a full house.   Since our eldest passed shortly after the birth of our son a little over three years ago, we waited to expand our brood since our son is now able and willing to be able to partic...

We have learned much from "Social Networking Diva" Margaret Rome and ...

I realize I have written a lot about the Towson Zestimates and how much they have been off in my area. It is not that I mean to harp, but as most of my family & friends know, I am an expert when it comes to house values in Towson. Enter this weekend, with cookouts and family time galore. As usual...

I have to admit I am caught up in reading all of these articles about Jon & Kate's separate lives. I don't know why, I guess it is like when people slow down to look at an accident on the highway - you just can't look away no matter how much you know you should and actually want to. One thing tha...

First, let me start, with my father's surgery was a success and the doctors feel very strongly that they have removed all of the cancer. THANK YOU for all of your thoughts and prayers. He is 6 organs/insides lighter, and will have much life adjustment, but he is optimistic, and looks WONDERFUL. I...

I'm sitting here watching my son play Wii golf target practice and realizing how much I am going to miss him over the next few days. Something as simple as watching him practice in his cute dinosaur pajamas can really make my day (despite the fact that he got up at 5:30 am!). The reality is, in a...
