HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH
FROM PAPAR: To say our real estate market has been hotter than our weather would be an understatement. Every July, we focus on real estate trends in the area, including housing costs, which have been on an upward trend since the pandemic made home truly where we spend so much of our time. Whether you’re buying, selling or perhaps considering protesting the higher property tax bills, you will nd useful information in this month’s Real Estate Edition. Papar Faircloth, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM JAKE: I can say as a new homeowner that homestead exemptions are a somewhat confusing but very important way to pay less in property taxes. If you’re a new homeowner or haven’t yet gotten an exemption, do yourself a favor and check out our Inside Info (see Page 15) to learn about the di erent exemptions available and the bene ts they provide. Jake Magee, EDITOR
Our purpose is to be a light for our readers, customers, partners and each other.
