Today, there are countless devices that manage our digital information. As cell phones, tablets, and notebooks are added to your daily life, we find ourselves with too many devices to keep up with.

Luckily, Apple, Google, and Microsoft are moving the center of your digital life to cloud-based platforms. This will make all of your digital information accessible from any device.

In fact, this month IDC (International Data Corporation) announced that PC sales plummeted to 14 percent this quarter.

What does this shift mean for the real estate industry?

The shift to mobile is already significantly impacting brokers, agents and consumers. Brokers are investing in cloud platforms and beefing up bandwidth, compared to the expensive in-house infrastructure previously used. Real estate agents, who need access to critical data on the go, are already choosing alternatives to desktop computers. They have chosen smart phones and tablets, which is evident in the growing number of mobile applications geared towards Realtors.

The shift to mobile is already taking place. And, this doesn’t mean making your website available on a smaller screen. It means making holistic data available constantly to the public.

Tamra Wade and Partners of Re/Max has always been a technology driven team.  Throughout the homebuying process, we make sure to keep you informed and aware of how things are going by communicating in real time via mobile devices. We utilize these devices along the way to help further expedite the sales process. One immediate benefit: the time saved by technology allows more time for customer service. A quicker process with better customer service means everyone wins. 

Chafin Builders would be happy to start one of their many floor plans just for you and your family at Trilogy Park in Hoschton, GA! The majority of floor plans are built on slabs, but there are a limited number of basement lots available as well.

Various floor plans offer versatility to fit buyers’ specific needs. Floor plans range from the is four bedroom Thompson with master suite on the main level to the Jennings floor plan, which can be built with four to six bedrooms and the master suite upstairs. Pre-sale pricing starts in the mid $200’s.

New home sales are soaring! But, buyers should get started early selecting a home site and floor plan as framers, carpenters and other construction personnel are extremely busy. Great sign, isn’t it? It can take five to six months to build, so get out there and find your home!

Trilogy Park offers an excellent completed amenities package that is ready to use as soon as you close on your new home! Check out the swimming pool (complete with lifeguard), the clubhouse that can be rented for entertaining, the lighted tennis courts for Alta Play, several playgrounds with slides and swings, and so much more!

If this community sounds like it may be where you and your family wish to be, please contact us! We look forward to telling you more about Holt Builders, the excellent warranty plan, the floor plans and lots available!

97.1 The River presents Styx and REO Speedwagon with Ted Nugent on Sunday, May 5, 2013. Last year’s debut of “The Midwest Rock ‘n’ Roll Express” tour, recognized by Rolling Stone as one of the “Ten Hottest Summer Package Tours of 2012,” was such a huge success that Rock’s finest from the Midwest– REO Speedwagon, Styx and Ted Nugent–are teaming up again for another round of shows starting April 18 in Grand Forks, ND at Ralph Engelstad Arena. The trek concludes May 19 in Burgettstown, PA at First Niagara Pavilion.

Styx and REO Speedwagon will be offering direct-to-fan access to the best seats in the house via their own exclusive fan club pre-sales.

To say that everyone on the tour is excited to get back out there would be an understatement, in their own words: “Due to the overwhelming success of last year’s tour, we are going to once again wind up the juggernaut of megatainment. Styx, REO and the Motor City Madman: there aren’t enough expletives in my vocabulary to explain how great this is…but I’ll try. This is going to be *$@&#@*&@# awesome!” –James “JY” Young, Styx (guitars, vocals)

“Yo, wake up everybody! Winter is over, the snow is melting, the sun is coming out–it’s time for the second annual REO, Styx, Nugent springtime extravaganza. We had so much fun in 2012 we all decided to fire this ‘Midwest Rock ‘n’ Roll Express’ thing up and do it again. Time to strap on our six strings, pack up the trucks and tour buses, get together with our best rock buddies and go out to have some big fun. See y’all soon.”–Kevin Cronin, REO Speedwagon (vocals, guitars, keyboards)

“Blazing vocal melodies and guitars, soaring arrangements steeped in Progressive Rock rotts, heart touching ballands you know in your bones, and that’s just my DAMN YANKEES brother TED NUGENT I’m talking about! Wait until STYX and REO take the stage! You might need to take the next day off after riding this glorious train!” –Tommy Shaw, Styx (vocals, guitars).
