eileen schreiber: Flagstaff Arizona 2011 Market Data - 03/09/12 07:11 AM
This is a very simple post. Rather than speculate on what the Flagstaff market may do this year, I am publishing the data on what the market did in 2011. As we approach the end of the first quarter of 2012, this data gives us a solid benchmark against which we can compare current stats.
So!
According to data published by the Northern Arizona Multiple Listing Service (all disclaimers apply), average prices, median prices and the average price/sf of Flagstaff single family homes rose in 2011. That's it!
According to date published by the Northern Arizona Multiple Listing … (1 comments)

eileen schreiber: Flagstaff Second Homes - 02/13/12 08:25 AM
Flagstaff Arizona is a popular second home destination for two very important reasons:

eileen schreiber: Flagstaff Real Estate. Neighborhood Reports: Ponderosa Trails - 11/25/11 12:43 PM
Based on data from the Northern Arizona MLS (insert appropriate disclaimers), the average sale price and median sale price of single family homes in Flagstaff Arizona show an upward trend in 2011!
However, buyers do not purchase homes in a city or a town. They purchase homes in a specific neighborhood whose location and amenities fit their needs.
That is why it is important for Sellers and Buyers alike to know the statistics for their immediate neighborhood.
Ponderosa Trails in Flagstaff, AZ is one of our newest subdivisions. Located in the Southwest of Flagstaff, directly adjacent to I-17, it is a … (1 comments)

Flagstaff Arizona Neighborhood Report: 2011 Sales of Single Family Homes in University Heights
While the trend in home sale prices in Flagstaff as a whole is UPWARD this year, it is important to look at home prices in specific neighborhoods.
Home Buyers do not simply buy a home, they buy a particular neighborhood.
According to information from the Northern Arizona MLS (insert appropriate disclaimers) University Heights in Flagstaff shows a downward trend in both average sales prices and median sale prices for Single Family Homes.
While the average sale price of a home in University Heights was $289,000 in the first … (0 comments)

eileen schreiber: Of all things - FACEBOOK Saves the Day! - 04/22/09 10:39 AM
It's been very smooth sailing for my First Time Homebuyer in Flagstaff. He and his wife found a great home they can afford, and from the minute we presented the offer, we have all felt - "ahhh, this is one of those that is meant to be!" Our offer was accepted, he qualified easily for his VA Loan, inspection went well... home free!
When you think you have experienced all the glitches, a new one rears it's head. It's been almost three weeks and the VA could NOT get an appraiser to accept the assignment! Two appraisers down....

eileen schreiber: Sometimes Magic Happens, Even During Tough Times. - 04/05/09 11:12 AM
My first-time Home Buyer is the type who, within weeks of searching for her home, knew more about the market than I did. Each night after her two boys were in bed, she sat at her computer researching EVERYTHING about Flagstaff, Arizona properties. She made lists of townhomes, single family homes and manufactureds. She had plus and minus columns. She met with her lender and found out about every first time homebuyer program. When that lender didn't give her excellent service, she switched to one who did.
So, I love her.
We have spent months together trying to find the … (3 comments)

eileen schreiber: Standing out to be Noticed: A positive story about Web Presence - 02/10/09 05:43 PM
I received a call at the end of last week from a woman at Zillow.com. She is in Washington State, nowheres near my hometown of Flagstaff, Arizona. The call began in the manner that more and more phonecalls begin:
"Hi. I got your name from the Web".
This woman was not a buyer. Buyer calls that start like that are my #1 favorite. However, this was as close to #1 favorite as I could wish for. This representative of Zillow.com was looking for their "Golf Home of the Week". Zillow.com and GolfDigest partner up to provide that home for Golf Digest's … (5 comments)

eileen schreiber: How to Shine Bright in a stressful world without the stress of Competition. - 02/05/09 09:07 AM
The debates about marketing strategies on Active Rain are intriguing. One person's surefire marketing, contact and followup formulas are the "Oh I would NEVERs" for others.
Absorbing the variety of our heartfelt opinions, and experiences, is a daily remindeer of a core belief. This core belief has allowed me to start my real estate business at a difficult time, and honestly, do better than I dreamed.
Core Belief.
We are not competing for listings or buyers. I am not in direct competition with any of you for business.
OK, I can see you now. The eyerolls, the "yeah rights", the chuckling of what on earth is she … (9 comments)

eileen schreiber: A pregnant Golden Retriever makes a drive from Flagstaff special. - 01/31/09 04:04 PM
One of my New Year's Resolutions, or simply desires for this year, was to get involved in activities I enjoy. Building the first year of my business occupied all of my time (with breaks for tennis, of course). I needed to get connected, active, involved in something that fed my passion for life.
Paw Placement of Northern Arizona is a group of committed Flagstaff women (and their husbands!) who foster dogs that would otherwise be euthanized, and find them great homes. I'm not sure how I got involved, but there I was on the email list, getting notified of meetings … (7 comments)

eileen schreiber: And so the Webversation Begins - Becoming an Online Realtor in the "wrong" market. Part I. - 01/23/09 08:18 PM
Confession Time.
As a relatively new real estate agent, I don't know how to develop a client base through face-to-face contact.
I mean, of course I know how to talk with real people from previous life experiences. But as a Realtor, most of my client conversations originate and develop right here, sitting in bed or at my desk, special brew of Eileen's tea by my side, typing on the computer.
History.
Realtor was on my “NEVER” list. The idea of scratching and clawing for clients was as appealing as spending the rest of my life in the dentist’s chair. … (5 comments)

eileen schreiber: Do you experience this? From Sticker Shock to Loving us! in Flagstaff, Arizona. - 01/20/09 03:42 PM
Saturday was a normal day for me in the life of a Realtor in Flagstaff, Arizona.
I met my new client at 9:00 AM at Little America, one of our Landmark Hotels in Flagstaff. She lives in Alabama and, faced with layoffs and life changes precipitated by the current economy, is interviewing for a job in Flagstaff.
Like many of my clients, she did her homework and research through my website, TheFlagstaffWebsite.com. She and I had emailed for weeks. She presented me a list of about 15 homes she wanted to see, ranked in order of preference.
She was organized, smart and very … (3 comments)

Yes, it's already mid January.
Happy January to all of you interested in following weekly Flagstaff Arizona Single Family Home Market Stats! While I realize this is neither humorous nor engaging, market-watching is a favorite pastime for those of us with a vested interest.

eileen schreiber: OK People. What if WE were the Buyers who are driving us crazy? - 01/08/09 09:14 AM
I agree. There is a bargain mentality raging through our nation that has not only infiltrated the Real Estate Market, it seems to define it.
Fed by constant news and images of foreclosures and distressed properties, plus a never-ending stream of statistics showing Seller Desperation, any potential Buyer who comes to the table feels it's time to get THE BARGAIN.
THE BARGAIN is no longer measured by carefully laid out statistics on pretty paper of neighborhood sales, price per square foot, list price vs. sell price, or any useful data, for that matter.
THE BARGAIN is simply this. Oh, they are asking 300K. I'll offer … (4 comments)

eileen schreiber: Drawing the Line on the Reluctant Buyer - This Might Really Work! - 01/07/09 08:43 AM
I have not tested this, but an email was sent out to all of the agents in our office - you know, one of "those" with all kinds of tips on how to motivate fence sitters and hee hawwers.
In my experience, (and this is just an opinion), my Buyers are very reluctant and mistrustful of anything they can even mildly associate with a pushy realtor. I may be very wrong in not learning about effective sales techniques, and possibly sabotaging my own business, but my perception is that HONESTY gains their trust, makes them feel comfortable, and ultimately … (4 comments)
