I'M SO EXCITED I JUST CAN'T HIDE IT!

If you are like me you are counting down until you will no longer have to make the trip to Hunt Valley to shop at Wegmans. If you haven't heard the news let me tell you how excited I became when I heard! Wegmans Food Markets Inc. expects to sign a lease soon to anchor a planned 350,000-square-foot, mixed-use center at Emmorton and Woodsdale roads just north of Interstate 95. The store itself should be approxiately 120,000 to 140,000 square feet. Another really exciting fact is that this store will employee close to 600 people. That too will be great for our Harford County economy! 

The store is not expected to open until 2011 but believe me if you have never visited a Wegmans before it will be sooooo worth your wait!  If you want to visit one in the mean time you can make the trip to Hunt Valley! I'll keep you updated on the progress of this store when developing begins.  

 WEGMANS! WEGMANS! WEGMANS! WEGMANS! WEGMANS! WEGMANS! WEGMANS! WEGMANS!

 

StagedHomes.com, an Accredited Staging Professional organization came to the Bel Air office of Keller Williams American Premier Realty on Febraury 3-5, 2009 to hold a certification class for anyone interested in earning their ASP designation. People from as far away as New Jersey, Delaware, and Virginia made their way here for the class. Realtors from all over the county were invited as well as individuals who wanted to earn their staging designation. 

According to Barb Schwarz, the founder of HomeStaged.com, Home Staging is the very best proven way to get top dollar for your home as you prepare it for sale. Homes that are Staged with an ASP Professional Home Stager sell faster and for more money! This is because Staging sets the scene throughout the house to create immediate buyer interest in your property. This will then lead to your home selling for the highest possible price in today's market. Remember, "The way you live in your home, and the way you market and sell your house are two different things." 

In today's real estate market it takes some creativity to get your home sold in the shortest amount of time for the most money. Statistics show that in today's market 94.6% of ASP Staged Homes sell on average in 35 days or less.  "Your Investment in ASP Home Staging will always be less than your first Price Reduction" - Barb Schwarz, The Creator of Home Staging.

Did you know that because of this class Keller Williams American Premier Realty now has the most Realtors holding the designation of Accredited Staging Professional-Realtor (ASP-RE) in their office than any other Harford County real estate office.  I am proud to say I am one of the ASP-RE Home Stagers.  I would love to assist you to set the stage to make your home stand out amoung the vast competition in today's market. Call me for a FREE phone consultation so I can tell you how I work! 410-375-9977 or email me at: Deanna@ZBestAgent.com 

 

 

Now don't get so excited about the circus being in town; I didn't say the Big Top, I said the Big TARP!  Forest Hill's old "C-Mart" building remains empty no more!!!  In its place is a huge indoor flea market with over 35,000 square feet of space and an absolute auction center. 

The Flea Market is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 8AM to 4PM. With over 130 vendors, there is a mini-mart, toys, collectibles, sports memorabilia and so much more.  New items and new vendors are added each and every week. Spaces are still available for vendors who would like to sell their wares. 

The live absolute auctions open at 2:00 pm every other Wednesday and begin at 4:00 pm.  The next absolute auction is scheduled for February 4, 2009.  Consignments are currently being accepted for the auctions on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 9 AM to 5 PM.  For additional information call 443-823-1545.

For the many new comers to Harford County, the "C-Mart" building (which is how it will be known forever) is located at 1503-11 Rock Spring Road in Forest Hill. 

In these economic times everyone is trying to save some money. Bargains are there to be found. So this is a great place to venture to. I will be at the February 4 auction. How about you???????

If I may assist you or anyone you know with Real Estate questions or needs, please don't hesitate to contact me directly at 410-375-9977.  Thanks, Deanna Zaganas

I am so very excited that Five Star Consigning Connections is coming to Box Hill Shopping Center in the space that Rite Aid used to lease.  If you are not familiar with this company they are a fine furniture and home accessory consignment store. This will be a great local resource for Realtors, Home Stages and for homeowners as well.  If you are looking for furniture to spruce up your vacant listing that have been sitting too long this is a great opportunity for you.

If you have a client who is thinking of down sizing but can't image giving their furniture away for pennies, this consignment shop could be your answer.  The consignment shop keeps your things for 90 days.  If they sell your furniture during that time great. If they don't they will contact you to see if you would like the furniture back or for them to donate it. 

Here is an example (see photo-left) of what I am talking about with too much furniture in the room. Once your home seller signs up to have their furniture put into consignment you will have the space you need to work miracles.                                     (see after photo-right)

 

  To me, as a Realtor, that means "90 days of free storage" for my listing that has too much furniture in it. It will also help me if I need a particular piece of furniture to use to stage a room that there is a business close by for me to visit.

I am sure I will be seeing you at Five Star in the near future. They are located at 2913 Emmorton Road in Abingdon right next to the famous Box Hill Pizzeria.  They are scheduled to open September 6.  Make sure you tell them you heard about them on my blog!!!!  If I can help you or anyone you know with any real estate needs remember I am just a phone call (410)375-9977 or email (Deanna@YourRecipeRealtor.com) away.  Enjoy your weekend!

I want to share with you a place that you will want to visit right here in Harford County.  I happened to receive an invitation to attend a business networking event at Bliss, Coffee and Wine Bar in Belcamp.  Since I am all about networking I eagerly attended.  This place was nothing at all like I expected.  It is upscale, beautifully decorated with a relaxing atmosphere.  Bliss opened in May and has already established a regular following.  Sarah Oritz-Brown and Claudio Brown, the owners, couldn't have been more welcoming and charming.  They made me feel as if I was visiting in their own home.  Not only can you sample wines and beers from all over the world, but they also serve lunch and dinner in their intimate dining area that seats 36.  The food is amazing and the menu is so unique. 

 

Blissfully start off your day by stopping by to pick up a cup of coffee before heading out for an action packed day? Bliss opens at 6:00 am Monday through Friday.  Starbucks, watch out you have met your match!!!!!!!!!!

Each day there is something new going on: 

  • Sunday Jazz Brunch from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.
  • Happy Hour is from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm Monday through Friday featuring  half price appetizers, $2.00 draft beers and $3.00 select wines.   
  • Tuesdays are Flight Nites with 5 for $15 from 6:30 pm-9:00pm. 
  • Wednesdays get 50% off any bottle of wine under $30.00. 
  • Thursdays are Professional Singles Nights-buy one glass of wine or beer and receive the second 50% off.  Speed dating was a big hit last Thursday!        
  • Every other Saturday evening there is live entertainment.                                  

Check their events calendar for updates as they are always adding something new and creative.            http://www.live-your-bliss.com/events.html 

This is an ideal place to purchase a gift certificate as a settlement gift for that special client or pick up a couple bottles of wine to create your own celebration basket.   But no matter what you decide I am so sure you will be   on this place.  Tell them Deanna sent you!

Maybe I'll see you there real soon.  Cheers!
