new jersey homes for sale: Wrongfully Switched Deed... - 06/10/09 12:12 PM
Dear fellow active rain members, I have a question I'm sure someone here can answer for me. I have a friend who allowed her fiancé to purchase a couple of investment properties in her name & with her credit.
 To make a long story short, the homes are now in foreclosure. I put one of the houses on the market to see if we could short sale it, but we've recently found out that the fiancé had the deeds switched out of her and name without her knowledge.
My question is would we still be able to sell the house though … (1 comments)

new jersey homes for sale: Listings vs. Just Having a House on the Market - 10/12/08 12:57 PM
Is there a difference between a good “listing” and “just having a house on the market.” I would have to say “yes.” Having a good listing means having a
 
home that is reasonably priced for the on-going market. If the home is priced too high (especially in this market) the chances of it selling are weakened.
 
On the other hand, if the home is priced too low, then the home owners may be left thinking they could have received more for their home. 
 
 
Another key to a good listing is a motivated seller. The highly … (2 comments)

new jersey homes for sale: Jack O' Lantern taking a hit...? - 10/09/08 11:57 PM
With all that's going on today, wall street crashing, gas prices rising (although lately they have been coming down), and all the foreclosures affecting various markets, I hear even Jack O' Lantern is taking a hit too. Due to weather conditions in certain areas, pumpkins used for craving during this festive time of year will be scarce.
Luckily for my 2 youngest (Jordyn & Jaden), along with my 2 God-children (Cj & Simone) they were able to get their slim pickings at the Hillsboro Farm's Pumpkin Patch last weekend. They enjoyed hayrides, a blow-up haunted house, and some good old running … (3 comments)

new jersey homes for sale: Family Day - 10/01/08 10:18 PM
 
 
Last Sunday was family day at Shiloh Baptist Church in Plainfield, NJ. My wife was a part of the committee that put together the weekend long service that turned out to be a wonderful fun-filled family event.
 
It was a fun game of “Family Feud” Friday evening, family prayer on Saturday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., then Family Day service on Sunday. 
 
It was a relaxed service, as we dressed alike in our yellow & blue colors, as well as inspiring as the Pastor preached about the importance of family and how important it is … (4 comments)

new jersey homes for sale: Does absence make the heart grow fonder? - 08/12/08 10:50 AM
Does absence make the heart grow fonder? It sure seemed to cause my phone to ring off the hook when my family & I left for a 2 week vacation. As soon as we headed south for a week in Hilton Head Island, SC & a week in Ocean Isle Beach, NC my phone started ringing before we got of the NJ Turnpike.
 
I'm definitely not complaining and I actually packed a few things that I thought I might need just in case something developed while I was away. Something did develop. A former prospect called wanting to see a … (6 comments)

new jersey homes for sale: Is there such a thing as a Sure Thing...? - 06/25/08 02:38 PM
In this business of real estate transactions, there is no such thing as a sure thing? After Big Brown's disappointing last place finish at the Belmont, I'm sure there are plenty of horse-racing fans that have come to that very same conclusion. I had a client that I for certain thought was a sure thing. A lot-hold was placed, a deposit was put down, and we were off and running. My client & I stayed in constant contact with each other. She literally called me every day at least 3 times a day, which I didn't mind at all. She was … (8 comments)

Who is your favorite musical artist?
With a mother who was very much into gospel and a father who was into everything from soul, disco, jazz and rhythm & blues,  my musical influence goes as far back as I can remember.
