October’s Note: Perspective, Oddities & Inspections

October's monthly note - realcentralva

 

The subscription-only monthly note from Jim Duncan/RealCentralVA – this month, the Charlottesville real estate market, perspective & thoughts on home inspections and the always-popular roundup of the previous month’s best blog posts from RealCentralVA and RealCrozetVA.

Two clicks here and you’ll have the note next week when it’s published.

One change that I’ve made recently: I’m publishing the archives a few months after they’re published. If you’re curious, you can read 2013’s notes, and I think I’m going to publish them all here on RealCentralVA in December. (me? I tend to print them to edit them)

September’s Monthly Note – Community, Oil Tanks & the Market

One note a month. Usually less than 1500 words, I tend to write my best stuff in this note.*

One of the highlights of every month’s note, in addition to the market insight and stories I write, are the blog summaries, in which I highlight some of the best posts on RealCentralVA and RealCrozetVA from the previous month.

August’s Monthly Note – The Market, Neighborhood Context and a Question about Archives

This month’s note, while a bit late, will be published late this week. I’m hoping to dive into some meatier topics so the editing process is going to be interesting.

I still find the monthly-note-writing experience interesting and find myself referring more and more often to the stories I write there; the triangles segment from last month is one I might end up publishing here on the blog.

One of the questions I’ll be posing this month is whether I should publish the subscription-only notes here once a year. Thoughts welcomed.

If you are interested in reading only one email every month that incorporates market analysis, sometimes tangentially related real estate stories, and a summary of the better blog posts every month on RealCentralVA and RealCrozetVA, two clicks and it’s yours. (subscribe today and I’ll send you July’s note as a primer)
