You have to be careful with these posts, that's when the Real Estate Agents come out and say that their market is best.The reality is you can make it work almost anywhere.

They all think they are going to a meeting and the lovely Christina is going to be there to show them how to remodel a home.The folks that are TV reality show stars ( other than ARmando) simply rent their name and make a bundle doing that. they might show up at the big event and talk for 30 minutes shake some hands and down the road they go.
