plymouth county: If you don’t shovel you may be sued!!! - 12/31/10 03:30 PM
In a recent ruling the Massachusetts Supreme Court changed how people slipping on ice and snow on your property was handled. The prior law read that if you, as a home or business owner, chose not to clear the snow or ice off of your property it was ruled as it was an “act of nature” and you were not liable. Well, that has now changed!
Please read this article:
The law now states that every property owner has a duty to use “reasonable care”.
What does that mean to you as a homeowner with your home on the market?????

plymouth county: The longest foreclosure process..... - 12/17/10 03:51 PM
Foreclosures are here and in full speed. We all must know someone that has or is going through financial trouble and is unable to pay their mortgage. But the story I just read absolutely takes the prize for being the longest pending foreclosure that I have ever heard of.
In life if you don’t stand up and fight for yourself no one else will. Yes, you can pay some one to be the mouth piece for you, but you have to take the initiative to make the fight. Well, Patsy Campbell of Florida really has taken it to levels I … (2 comments)

plymouth county: Short Sales are time consumming and intense BUT uneducated or lazy agents make them tough! - 12/07/10 05:29 AM
At this very moment I have 23 active short sale files.
I just wanted to let that sentence sink in. Give it the attention and thought that it deserves. That is a good number of active short sale files. Not bragging or looking for accolades just want you to realize how many files I work on at once so that you possibly can see why an agent who doesn't want to listen to how the process is OR an agent who just wants to play "pass the buck" is truly an unnecessary nuisance in this market.
A short sale is … (7 comments)

plymouth county: My journey thru one of my recent short sales - 12/04/10 10:05 AM
As most of my readers know by now I specialize in short sales. Many agents claim to be an expert but when asked to show their numbers or show professional referrals, they cannot. I handle the short sales for many agents in my office as well as for several local attorneys, and have even stepped in to assist agents in other brokerage firms.
Yes, I now have sufficiently patted myself on the back )!!!!!
Well, my experiences with a recent short sale left me out of wind and even speechless (and anybody who is laughing thinking there is NO way I was … (4 comments)

plymouth county: A quick and easy excel budgeter - 09/25/10 09:56 AM
While surfing the internet I came across this budget spreadsheet that I thought was quick and simple. There are plenty of costly and some free programs that will help you figure out your spending but they can be so difficult and/or time consuming to learn and use. The thought of creating my own spreadsheet is enough to make me want to poke pencils through my ears!!!!!

plymouth county: Website Resources for Foreclosure Help - 09/17/10 09:08 AM
You've been warned about foreclosure scams. But sometimes it's really hard to tell if something is a scam or not. Some less-than-reliable outfits have even taken to including "hud" or "gov" in their URLs to fool you into thinking they are legitimate foreclosure counselors. It pays to be wary. Below are some websites from government and non-profit agencies that can help you with foreclosure. Some are seeking volunteers and donations to help stop the foreclosure crisis.

plymouth county: A Definition of Skill - 02/19/09 07:41 AM
In my office I am known as the "go-to" person by my fellow agents for advice / help and as a sounding board. I feel honored that I am thought of in such a flattering manner by those that I work with, some of whom are major hitters in our market area.
Well, the other day I got a call from one of these agents (p.s. she is an avid Active Rainer so I hope she doesn't mind me kissing and telling) to tell me about her bad day. A closing that was to happen that day didn't. Uuuugghh!!! I know … (10 comments)

plymouth county: Plymouth County Close-up - 04/14/08 05:52 AM
You can see the difference in value from the same months last year as compared to this year. Most towns in Plymouth County have lost substantial value, while other towns have seen little or no depreciation On average the county has had a correction of almost 9% since last year.
Also, it is a worthy note that this does NOT include foreclosures. That may paint a dramatically different picture. Foreclosures tend to sell for far less than their "traditional" counterparts.
