November, 2020, Newsletter

As you probably know by now, and as I hinted in my last newsletter when this was becoming clear, the reticence of sellers to put their houses on...Continue Reading!

Of course, we all know better, and one thing that has been going surprisingly strongly is the real estate market. Nice transition, eh?

Portuguese Bend Estates?
Huh? Portuguese Bend Estates? I’m guessing you’ve never heard of it or, if you have, it’s not where you think it is. When I first heard the name I assumed it must be what is now the Portuguese Bend Club or the area behind the gates at Narcissa Drive and PV Drive South. At the same time that the better-known early housing developments were going in on the Hill – Grandview, Rocky Point, etc – there was also one being...Continue Reading!
