Live in the heart of the city
Memphis is not as old as some of the other famous Southern towns or even some of its less famous suburbs. Antebellum homes are pretty rare. It was a pleasure to work with Shelley and Mike on the purchase of a circa 1854 home in the Uptown neighborhood.
Stacey Wiedower tells the story of Mike and Shelley’s move from New Mexico/Wyoming to inner city Memphis in her feature article in today’s Commercial Appeal.
I love working with buyers and sellers of unusual and historic properties in Downtown, Midtown, and East Memphis. Contact me if I can help you.

Real Estate agents like to put flyer boxes in your yard to spread the word about your listing. Â For the potential home buyer, there is just something reassuring about the tactile experience of taking a beautifully designed paper flyer out of the flyer box. Â Of course sometimes the drive-by inquisitive take more than one flyer. Â They seem to be attractive to kids walking home from school, and some flyers seem to disappear for no reason at all. Â Often there are more empty flyer boxes in a neighborhood that stocked ones.
I am not a huge fan of flyer boxes.  I can provide much more information about your property with a single property website and a sign in your yard with the URL link to it.  If you list with me and you want a flyer box in your yard, I will provide flyers and a .pdf file of the flyer and you make sure there are always flyers in the box.  If I happen to find it empty, I remove it.  Pretty simple solution to the situations pictured in this post.
My hope for the future is that consumers will continue to develop their technical savvy, so that signage and flyer boxes can be replaced with QR code signs, which provide lots of info via  a simple scan with your smart phone.  Here is a flyer box/QR Code combination I use on some of my listings.

If you saw on of these in the yard of a listed property, would you know how to deal with it?
