dutchess county real estate: Why Use A Realtor When Zillow Has All The Answers? - 08/11/11 02:19 AM
Is it possible that today’s real estate consumers are just as savvy as they are naive?
Today's buyers and sellers are turning to the Zillow website and relying on the “zestimate” to determine property value, and they are often unaware that they are using this online resource to make all the wrong decisions regarding pricing.
Time and time again, Zillow has been an unreliable source of information, and yet the unsuspecting real estate consumer will trust it enough to go it alone or not heed the advice of their Realtor. With Zillow at their disposal, buyers and sellers feel that … (17 comments)

dutchess county real estate: Why Your Dutchess County Home Is Not Selling - 08/02/11 02:58 PM
Sometimes selling a house comes down to more than just the investment itself. Sellers should ask themselves ...what if it takes ten years for the market to recover? What are your goals and are they worth putting your life on hold? http://www.mydreamhouse.com/history/06_11.htm The link above is a snapshot of the Dutchess County real estate market. A year ago, as much as we all wanted to think that the market could not get any worse, we continued to look for small signs of a recovery. However, in June 2011 closed sales were down 40% from the same time last year. Don't believe it???? Go ahead, click … (3 comments)

dutchess county real estate: Selling A Home In A Bad Market? It Might Be Time To Cut Your Loss! - 07/27/11 12:33 AM
When the market first began to decline and inventory started to rise I worked for a broker who told homeowners that if they didn't have to sell ...to just WAIT. Perhaps the thought was that the market would eventually rebound.
Bad advice. Market values only got worse.
Fast forward to today. How many years should those sellers have waited before finally figuring out that it was time to cut their losses and move on?
No longer can you hold out for top dollar if it means putting the life you desire and your happiness on hold. As harsh as it may … (39 comments)

dutchess county real estate: Loan Modification Was Just A Band-aid For Some - 08/07/10 07:58 AM
It was great that many homeowners who were teetering near financial collapse were able to get their banks to agree to loan modifications. Wait. Maybe it wasn't such a good plan for some. Many of these folks are falling behind again. According to a Bloomberg report in March 2010, 51% of loan modifications failed within 9 months.

dutchess county real estate: Dutchess County - Not A Declining Market? ...Heard It Through The Grapevine. - 11/18/09 04:29 PM
Is there good news on the horizon for Dutchess County homeowners? Two mortgage representatives told me this week in separate conversations that the Dutchess County area is no longer deemed a declining market by the lenders they work for. One rep was specific to state that the term being used now to describe the local market is "soft."
I don't think we'll see any robust changes in the near future. Up until now Dutchess County had been considered a declining market for the last 18-24 months. It may remain soft for some time., but this is a little better than declining. Have we hit bottom? Will the market turn … (3 comments)

dutchess county real estate: Unable To Pay Your Mortgage? - Where To Turn To In Dutchess County... - 11/12/09 10:53 AM
Hardship is running rampant these days. Everywhere I turn as a real estate agent I hear stories that bring me to tears. Many people are experiencing financial problems, unable to pay their mortgage and getting deeper into debt. Some of my past and present clients have confided in me about the feeling of shame and embarrassment they have experienced. Rarely do they talk openly to others about their financial problems and will usually treat this like a dirty little secret. And, most people don't know where to turn.
If you are experiencing financial hardship, the truth is that you are among many. Knowing this may not make you feel … (2 comments)
