poughkeepsie homes: 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)

poughkeepsie homes: Poughkeepsie Area Market Overview - 11/12/09 09:31 AM
Local real estate statistics were recently published for October 2009.  The market update below shows that closed sales and the number of purchase offers accepted are UP since last October, while the inventory of available homes for sale has declined.  This is great news for sellers, and should serve as a caution for home buyers who are waiting to time the market.  In fact, the average selling price has not even changed significantly since last year.

poughkeepsie homes: Another Pleasant Valley Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday..... - 10/15/08 02:50 PM
Nobody who's ever ventured north of NY City or Westchester County would ever imagine this! Only 70 miles away from the Big Apple is a beautiful and peaceful landscape. Manhattanites who come up here for a weekend drive usually fall in love with the Upstate NY countryside. Often I've heard it said - "I  feel like I've died and gone to heaven". No wonder one Hudson Valley town was named Pleasant Valley!
Many stay long enough to check out the local real estate market -  and eventually they become residents who commute to work in The City. The smart thing, for those who have jobs that are conducive enough is to figure out a way to telecommute. Some … (5 comments)

poughkeepsie homes: I Am Going To Be An SRES - Seniors Real Estate Specialist. - 09/06/08 08:44 AM
I am happy to announce that this REALTOR® will have an SRES® designation by the end of the week. I have helped many seniors and their families and realize how well I relate to this group, especially with my own parents in their 80s. So, it only makes sense for me to become a Seniors Real Estate Specialist.
For more information on the SRES designation, you can pop onto the SRES site http://www.sres.org/ 
From that site, the question is posed:
Why are 50-plus clients moving? To be closer to grandchildren. To start that vineyard they've always dreamed of. To address health concerns. The list goes … (11 comments)

poughkeepsie homes: Facing Foreclosure? ...Do Not Pay Upfront Fees For A Short Sale! - 08/03/08 09:27 PM
As an active agent working in this challenging market here in Dutchess County, New York - I would like to use this forum to caution desperate homeowners who might be facing foreclosure. DO NOT use a 3rd party negotiator who will charge an UPFRONT FEE for a short sale (pre-foreclosure). Don't spend a dime on this service when all you really need is an experienced real estate agent and a good local attorney who is an expert in negotiating with the banks.
                                           
In the Poughkeepsie area I am hearing stories of a 3rd party negotiator who is taking upfront fees from destitute sellers - a fee of $1,000-$3000. Understandably, anybody facing … (5 comments)

poughkeepsie homes: Commute From Poughkeepsie To Grand Central Terminal - Metro-North Hudson Line - 07/23/08 12:03 AM
From the quiet surroundings of Poughkeepsie ...NY City is a just a commuter train away. For the Manhattan worker, finding affordable housing is becoming more and more of a challenge. Many people seek affordable housing solutions in the suburbs. The further out, the more affordable. Westchester, Bergen, Nassau and Putnam Counties were once highly regarded as the affordable suburban communities, and commuting became the great alternative from these nearby areas, so close to Manhattan. However, many home buyers have found themselves priced out of these increasingly expensive real estate markets too now. As housing prices increased in the New York City metropolitan area over the past several years - more home buyers have been moving even further … (4 comments)
