real estate: A Touch of Silcily in Indianapolis - 07/09/07 09:04 AM
I found another great place to eat in downtown Indianapolis, it's called Bearnos- Little Silcily and it's located at 1 N. Pennsylvania. Not far from Conseco Fieldhouse, Monument Circle and many other activities in the downtown area.
It's one of Louisville's most popular locally owned restaurants and it's now available here in Indianapolis. The dining atmosphere is casual and very family friendly. I even noticed a couple pinball machines in the restaurant. (Ms. Pac-Man, one of my favorites.)
The menu offers pizza, submarine sandwiches or pasta. Specialty pizzas range from the meaty pepperoni extreme to the spicy BBQ chicken. Try to leave room for … (4 comments)

real estate: Explanation on the Lease Option To Buy - 11/29/06 08:49 PM
When a renter signs a lease with an option to purchase a property for a specific price within a certain time frame, that is called a lease option. In most lease-option situations, a portion of the rent is applied to a future down payment. Lease options are most popular among buyers who don't have enough funds for a down payment and closing costs. At times a lease option can be used to help renters or future purchasers out until they regain some control on their credit rating. Credit issues are the main reason people can't just purchase a home themselves in today's … (1 comments)

real estate: Is It A Great Time to Buy? - 11/26/06 09:55 PM
Lately we've heard several different prospectives on the real estate market. Some news articles say we are in a housing bubble. Others report about the down market, more talk about this being a buyer's market. We hear about foreclosures and the list goes on and on. So what is the truth?
Some of what we hear is true for all markets. Such as, mortgage interest rates still being at an all time low. Everyone from California to Florida to New Hamphire would have to agree that interest rates a low at the moment for mortgages. (If anyone thinks back to what interest rate … (0 comments)

real estate: Are you really taking a loss? Pricing a home in today's market. - 10/26/06 04:10 PM
As many of you know, homes are sitting on the market longer. More people are experiencing their listings expire or being on the market for a year or more. To combat that, I and other Realtors®. ask for sellers to consider the low end of a suggested listing price or a price reduction. So often that idea is met with resistance to our suggestion. I understand the many reasons that it sounds like such an unthnkable request but I'd like to explore some other variables with you. Please, stay with me on this one.
Now if you do not have to sell your home, this may not … (0 comments)

real estate: The Scoop on Pricing a Listing. - 10/24/06 02:21 PM
So many times when I speak to people, whether they are possible clients or people I meet when I'm out and about there's a misconception that a Realtor sets the price of a home when it's listed.
In reality, it goes back to the market and that "supply and demand" rule. Most everyone knows, when there's a large demand for something and not much product, the prices will raise but when there's a lot of product and a limited demand, the prices will go down.
I'm not writing this to get into a lengthy discussion about the economy or the stock market, … (1 comments)

real estate: The "Expired Listing" - 10/14/06 08:21 PM
Not long ago, I contacted a homeowner about their expired listing. One of the first questions I was asked by them was whether I really wanted to sell this home or just get another listing. . . I hadn't been asked this question before but it is a valid one.
Most homeowners experience a bunch of calls, if the homeowner isn't flagged on the Do Not Call List or letters from Realtors offering to re-list their property. Sometimes a Realtor will even show up at the front door.
When I contact people whose homes didn't sell and expired I'm calling to see if my services will help … (1 comments)
