About the Ft. Campbell, KY, and Adams and Clarksville Real Estate Market  Adams, Tennessee
Adams is a rural community, with acres of family farms that still grow tobacco, soybeans, corn, and wheat. Adams is an affordable place to live, with the median cost for a home being around $160,000 and a monthly mortgage average of $1100. The real estate market for Robertson County, as in the neighboring Montgomery County, has continued to grow as new homes are built. Clarksville, Tennessee
Between 1,200 and 1,500 homes are on the market at any given time. With the average cost of a home around $140,000 and the average two-bedroom rent of $600, Clarksville is one of the most affordable places to live in the country. The Sango community on the east side of Clarksville has started to boom with restaurants and other businesses chasing residents who like the proximity to Nashville and convenience to Exit 11 of Interstate 24. In 2007, the average local home sale price was $145,000. The fact that local residents are purchasing larger homes indicates that upward mobility is taking place in the Clarksville area. Along with continued activity in local residential home sales is also continued growth in single-family home construction. As of October 2007, cumulative year-to-date single-family building permits issued reached 1,048 for Montgomery County. This figure compares to 927 and 853 over this same period for the prior two years. Fort Campbell, Kentucky

Agency >Who Pays the Commission
Does it cost the homebuyer more to be represented by a buyer's agent who serves their interests exclusively? No, because the listing agent splits the sales commission, which is customarily paid by the seller of the home, with the buyer's agent. The sales commission split is usually 50-50, but the listing agent and buyer's agent will sometimes make another agreement and split the commission unequally.
There is one very unusual circumstance in which the homebuyer might pay a commission to their buyer's agent. The real estate agent might show the buyer a local "for sale by owner" (FSBO) home which the client decides to purchase. In most cases, the FSBO seller who is presented with a qualified buyer is glad to pay the buyer's agent a reduced fee of about 3 percent, or half of a normal sales commission. But the FSBO seller could stubbornly refuse to pay the buyer's agent any commission whatsoever. In that case, the buyer's agent would legitimately expect the buyer to pay the sales commission, in fair exchange for the agent finding the FSBO home and negotiating a successful transaction.
