Thank you for your service to our country!
I look forward to having an opportunity to serve you and your family.
As a Navy wife, I experienced several PCS moves myself - not to mention finding, buying and moving my family into a new home while my husband was deployed. I "get" military pay and how the various allowances impact your qualifying to buy a home. And I know how to help military families move into their own home without any cash "up front" - something you cannot do as a renter.
I serve military families throughout the, D.C. - Baltimore - Annapolis area, specializing in Anne Arundel, Howard and Prince George's Counties, Maryland. You can contact me online or by cell/text at 301-346-2923 to help your family relocate to Fort Meade, Andrews AFB, the U.S. Naval Academy, or any other military installation in D.C. or Maryland.

HELPFULHANNAH
Cindy - Thank you, Cindy. Since you are the QUEEN of posts for relocating military families, I feel very flattered!
Al and Peggy - Thank you, I hope it's helpful to them. Thanks for your comment.
Hannah - The keyword "Fort Meade" has been hard to crack in google results, so hopefully this post will at least appeal to people who are considering SEVEN OAKS. Thanks for your nice comment.
Really beautiful area and post. How do the results of your outside blog differ from your previous regular Activerain blog?
Karina - The results for my Real Estate Tomato Blog (Focus On Crofton) are much better than my Activerain or Localism posts. However, that's why I accepted this challenge from Activerain to do a Localism hyper-local post every day for a week. We'll see how this works out... So far, they've each made it to Page 1 of google search results for some keword phrases.
Just the type of information a buyer would want on Fort Mead.
Margaret: This is an awesome post. Since I live in a military area, I will flatter you and copy your format for some of the local bases. I need to go out and take lots of pictures. Tere
Terry - I hope so!
Tere - My only suggestion... put the community first. I did that on my last one and wish I did it sooner.
I agree with Sheldon Margaret. This blog looks like it can be published in a newspaper. I need to start writing Hyper local content blogs too. If I can just find time doing it. Great post Margaret.
Lanre, it's easier than you expect! Just put in writing what you would say to someone over a cup of coffee... throw in a few details and links and VOILA. Done!
