'Real Estate Rob' Burland

The best of both worlds. Year round 3 bedroom bungalow nestled in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance to the beach and close to shopping, dining and the highway for a quick exit. This truly is a wonderful location. You will love the open concept lliving space with vaulted ceilings and warm finishes, well designed kitchen with loads of cupboard and counter space. Relax on the front deck and enjoy the fenced back yard, complete with interlocking patio, bunkie for those extra visitors, and a fire pit to share a story or two.

I’m excited to jump into the social media arena with my new blog!

I have a lot of information and ideas to share with you and felt this would be a great place to do so. Information on the home buying procedure, getting the biggest bang for your buck, home improvements, lawn care, area market updates and so much more. I’m also an avid amateur photographer and nature enthusiast so I’m sure there will be some posts that sneak onto these pages in those areas as well.

I’d love to hear from you – whether I’ve struck a cord, you have additional information to share on a particular topic or you just love (or didn’t love) one of my posts, I look forward to your comments!
