It’s always fun to have a look back at your real estate website each year to see what people have been viewing the most. With 2012 behind us, we take a look at the most viewed real estate posts on the Kimberly Howell Properties site from 2012. Thank you San Antonio, we’ve loved bringing you all this information and we look forward to lots more real estate information over the next year. In order of viewership from January 1st, 2012 to December 31st, 2012 here are the top ten posts. What was your favorite post of the year?

Pumpkin Patches and Fall Festivals – Originally posted in 2011, shortly after our new site opened, this post proved popular in 2012 for those seeking family fun during the fall months.
