Vietnam Veterans Give What They Did Not Get
Many of you served in the military during the Vietnam war or are related to someone who did. I only know what I have read, heard or was taught in school (which was very little). However, I do know it was a very unpopular war and that the soldiers did not get the recognition and support they deserved which left many bitter and scarred.

However, there are always some people who know how to take the wrong and make a right and that is just what Michael Engi and fellow Vietnam veterans are doing.

These Vietnam veterans drop whatever they are doing night or day to welcome home the returning troops at Fort Dix. It is their mission to make sure these military men and women receive a hearty welcome home unlike the lonely return home they experienced.

This is a heart warming story about how Michael Engi organized these efforts and how welcoming home the Soldiers help heal him and his fellow Vietnam veterans. Mr. Engi says America's newest veterans are overcome with gratitude and emotion as they are welcomed home. (photo courtesty of Flickr-rsktphotos)

I just had to share this with you today, whether we agree or disagree with the war in Iraq, these men and women deserve our gratitude and respect.

I work with many military families relocating to Camp Lejeune and buying a home in Hubert NC and I consider it an honor to assist these families in locating a home in Onslow County NC.

Homes in Hubert, NC
Everyone seems to have an opinion about the real estate market and if now is a good time to buy or sell. I can only tell you my experience and what I see happening here in my area of Onslow County N C.
Property values of homes in Hubert NC have increased dramatically over the last 3 years, especially the water front property in Kingsbridge II on Queens Creek. Several new homes have gone up here and sold in the $425,000 and up price range. Building lots on Queens Creek have also seen a very large increase in value with sales prices in the $175,000 and up range.
Mortgage rates are still very low in comparison to what they were just a few years ago. It has not been that long since 8% was considered a very good rate. Will they go up or down? That's any one's guess and every buyer and seller has to make the decision whether to make their move now or wait.
My personal opinion is that now is an excellent time to buy a home in Hubert NC or any other area of Onslow County. The inventory is good, sellers are ready to sell and mortgage rates are favorable.
I also believe it is a great time to buy a building lot whether you want to build now (which is a good time while building supply materials prices are down) or you want to just sit on the property for awhile. It is my opinion that Hubert NC real estate prices are not going to lose more value. The proximity to water and Camp Lejeune Marine base make this an excellent location for investment.
People have different opinions and thought and of course, ultimately the decision is yours but whatever you do, do not allow the media hype to dictate your decision concerning buying or selling real estate in Onslow County, NC. Remember the news media objective is to sell the news and bad news sells.
