Testimonial
"I want to take a moment to personally send a note on the wonderful experience my family had working with Josie Patterson during our relocation from Omaha. We loved her energy and her deep concern for the right fit for us in the community and the schools. Her positive attitude and guidance in locations and housing was outstanding. A relocation is never easy, and most difficult for the children in the family. We have a high school son who is very concerned about the relocation and she went above and beyond connecting him with schools and other students. Thank you for your professionalism and support during a very difficult and stressful time in my family's life."

Welcome!
Happy New Year! As we welcome 2013, we reflect on the past year and look ahead to new and exciting opportunities and changes. After we've recovered from the holiday season, we're ready to resume our routines with a new found sense of purpose.
With the change of the year comes movement in the housing market. In most markets, prices and buying options appear to be picking up, and it will be exciting to see the positive changes reflected over the next few months.
We sold 185 homes in 2012! Let the Helgeson/Platzke Real Estate Group be your real estate resource in 2013. Give us a call!

2013 Housing Market Trends: What Will Be Different Than 2012
By Jed Kolko, Trulia Chief Economist
One year ago, I wrote: "Even the best possible 2012 won't get us halfway back toward normal." That turns out to be true, but barely: the latest Trulia Housing Barometer, for October, showed us that the market is 47 percent back to normal. And this year, we launched the Trulia Price Monitor - which revealed back in March that asking prices were on the rise - one of the earliest indicators of the home-price recovery. All in all, the housing market enters 2013 with strong tailwinds, but that could change.
