Hi Liza,
I found your blog in my search for information about Fredericksburg. We are considering relocating there. Do you like living there? What do you think of the schools? Is there a rental market there? We would want to rent first so that we aren't in a hurry to buy a house. I would appreciate ANY information you are willing to share!
Thanks so much! Gina
Hey Gina,
Thanks for your questions! I do love living here. It is a beautiful town, with great schools and a wonderful hospital. The rental market is good, most rents falling between $700-$1400 for a home. You can go to my website at www.RealEstatewithLiza.com and check out my about Fredericksburg page for a lot of neat information and some great links to visit. Hope I helped and let me know if I can do anything else to help you along.
