"Video Killed The Radio Star"

Remember that song?!?! Well video is creeping into more advertising than ever. So take a look at this:

Throughout the coming year we will be getting more and more into videos for important announcements, invites and our listings.

Every one of our listings has a video on YouTube. Did you know that YouTube is one of the largest search engines out there? Every one of our listings has it's own web page too.

What loses a head in the morning but regains it at night?? Your pillow

Go Twins!!

Go Wild!!

Happy Easter

From all of us at Century 21 Koeckeritz Realty, we want to wish each and every one of you a Happy Easter.

In the Real Estate world things are starting to pick up steam. A few more new listings have hit the market and interest rates are still pretty good. Check out the housing market at www.krhomes.com. Have any questions on any home listed on the market? Contact one of the 12 agents here either through the website or by calling 359-9212. We handle all types of real estate.

I posted my first ever video on our Facebook Page the other day wishing everyone a Happy Easter and inviting you to come see us the Home Show April 1-3. It was my first attempt but not my last. Look for more to come. But don't forget to come see us at the Home Show.

I'm a huge supporter of buying locally and that includes financing locally. If you're looking to buy a home, start with your local lender. Many times they're just as good and sometimes better than an internet lender. We have some good ones in the area.

I have a recent pet peeve -- that is people taking to Social Media and claiming this store and that store is closing. The latest has been Menards, Hardees and Herbergers. From what I've found out is that none of those are true. Support them don't bury them. I've found that the only reason that I need to shop out of town is to get my racquetball racquet restrung in Mankato. I can buy everything else here without spending time and gas money.

Back to real estate --- If you're thinking about buying or selling be sure to give us a call. Our marketing is second to none.

This is going to get good and interesting

It's only March and the Presidential race is hot and going strong with no sign of letting up. As is typical with any election you really don't know who to believe about most anything that they say. It seems like we hear the same thing every 4 years just a different person saying what they think we want to hear. When the dust settles who will be left standing?? Time will tell.

We have our new digital sign up and running out in front of our building and still learning on how to use and what to put on it. Do you have an event or announcement that you want to see up in lights?? We can  do that for you. Let us know what you want to say and we can get that done. Just make a small donation and at the end of the year we'll take the money collected and donate it to a non-profit or two.

Like us on Facebook!!We've been posting our 2015 Award winners on Facebook. The first two were Joyce Krenz and Brenda Nosbush. They along with the other award winners from Century 21 Koeckeritz Realty will be recognized at the regional awards banquet held April 1.

Come see us at the Home Show the first weekend of April at the New Ulm Civic Center. We'll have a few things to hand out that weekend.

Happy Spring to all and warm thoughts

Welcome to Winter

After a bearable December, January has shown us that it still is winter in Minnesota. That doesn't mean that things stop in the real estate world. There are still buyers out there looking for a new home so if you're thinking about selling, now isn't a bad time to get the ball rolling. Yes it can be a pain to move in the winter but we do have the enclosed trailer for you to use if you need it.

In case you haven't been past our building in the past few days, we have added another means to advertise. We have installed a new digital sign that we'll be incorporating into our marketing plan. This sign has a lot of bells and whistles to watch for open houses, listings, contests and events throughout the year.

Century 21 Koeckeritz Realty is a proud sponsor of the 2016 Heart of New Ulm Gala. This years event  will be held on Feb 20, 2016. The proceeds from the night will go towards the purchase of a 3D Mammography machine. It will become a helpful tool in the fight against cancer and it will be right here in New Ulm. Who hasn't had their life touched by cancer?

The Winter High School sports season is in full swing. Be sure to catch a game or match and cheer on these young athletes. There are a few area teams that have garnered state rankings.

2015 was a good year for us as a company as we had over 200+ transactions in the New Ulm and Sleepy Eye area. That makes us one of the top Century 21 offices in the State of Minnesota. 2016 looks like it should be another good year.

What's Happening?
Turner Hall is having a Rib Feast on Feb 4.
Heart of New Ulm Gala is Feb 20
Home Show is coming April 1
