Downtown Chattanooga will be hosting a Saturday market at Ross’s Landing Plaza, at the aquarium.  Starting June 5th, one can stop by from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. to listen to live music and enjoy the artistry of talented vendors.  Also being discussed is the possibility of organizing a produce market during this time as well.

This market is a Saturday public market to showcase Chattanooga’s finest and most successful local artists, craftspeople and local producers.  It will be a complement to the Sunday Farmer’s market at the AT&T pavilion.

What I did this weekend.

Posted by Barry Evans in Chattanooga TN Real Estate

Diane and I celebrated our anniversary this weekend. We had dinner Friday night at Alleia on Main Street. http://alleiarestaurant.com .  It is a beautiful restaurant that made feel like we had gone to Atlanta for the weekend. The décor is a nice blend of industrial and sleek contemporary. Diane had lamb with risotto and peas and I had the gorgonzola fig pizza. We grudgingly shared as it was great and the service was first class. Saturday I got a bike ride in on the River Walk Park before the rain.

Market Trends

Posted by Barry Evans in Chattanooga TN Real Estate

 Here in Chattanooga, TN, as we have discussed before, did not experience the run up bubble that many markets did.  And we did not have the big burst either.  Whether you are looking to buy in Hixson, Ooltewah, East Brainerd, East Ridge, Red Bank, etc. it does not matter, the market as a whole is seeing more activity.  Below is a comprehensive report from the National Association of Realtors on recent market trends:

Perfect Day in Chattanooga!

Posted by Barry Evans in Chattanooga TN Real Estate

It was the perfect day in Chattanooga. The weather could not have been more perfect. It was sunny without a cloud. The temperature was in the mid 70s with a slight breeze. This was a day that could not be wasted indoors. It was Saturday May 8th, 2010.

Maintaining Distance When Selling Your TN Home

Posted by Barry Evans in Chattanooga TN Real Estate

Selling a home in Chattanooga or Hixson can be a very personal experience. After all, this is the place you’ve lived for years. Maybe you renovated the interior with your own two hands. Maybe you got married here. Maybe this is even where you raised your kids. No matter what it is that makes your home, well, home, the decision to sell isn’t one that comes lightly to everyone.

The personal attachment we all have to our homes is part of the reason it can be difficult to sell a Tennessee home.
