Another snowy yet productive day.  We’re getting a nice surge of buyer activity as we approach the holidays.  It looks like we’re getting a deal together on our Silver Road parcel, and I’m also putting a deal together on some land up in Keweenaw County.  I’m also sending out paperwork on a really exciting listing on Pointe Abbaye.  I hope that everybody had a great day!

Keweenaw county is reporting over 80 inches of snowfall already since October!  Today we are quite close to having one of our three current pending offers together, and I’m still optimistic on the other two.  Other than that, I plowed snow this morning, and I’m heading home to plow snow again.  Take care!

Today we got a deal together on one of our commercial buildings in Houghton, so that was a good thing.  I’m still awaiting responses on three other offers that we’ve got out right now.  I’ve been waiting for a sunny day to photograph a new listing, but I’m starting to wonder when that day is going to come.  More snow plowing today, and there will be more in the morning as well.  Have a great day!

This weather is getting a little ridiculous for this time of year.  So cold!  Tonight after work I went hunting, and the winds and temp were so bitter.  I saw about 10 deer, and 3 wolves.  The deer are struggling to move across the deep crusty snow, but the wolves are able to stay right on top and move easily.  The wolves should have an easy time taking down deer right now.  Earlier today we closed on a 160 acre parcel in Elm River Township, so congrats to seller Cliff and buyer Tim on a smooth transaction.  Stay warm!

It was a cold but nice weekend up here.  On Saturday I wrote an offer with some buyers on some land near Mass City, so hopefully we’ll get that one together.  Saturday night we hosted a Christmas Party at our house, and a great time was had by all.  Also, on the lower left of the homepage, you’ll see a new link, the ‘Live Iowa Deer Cam’, check it out, it is another really neat webcam.  Time for another week.  Take care!
