A Mobile App for Home Shoppers Around Silicon Valley

Gary Frimann (Eagle Ridge Realty/Signature Homes & Estates) — Thu, 31 May 2012 09:31:21 -0700

After numerous calls from people interested in homes that were off the market, I started asking them what website they were going on to get their information...
It is frustrating looking up property after property, only to find out it was under contract.
The Multiple Listing Service I subscribe to is MLSListings, Inc. which generally serves the entire Bay Area (Except San Francisco, although there can be SF listings on it) and parts east of the San Francisco Bay Area in portions of the Central Valley.

What getting direct access to the listings from the MLS assures that for the most part, it is accurate data, something some other sites do not offer, due to the fact that they do not control the data...

Anyway, to download the public app (FREE) for the MLS you can go here: MLSListings, Inc.

Happy Househunting!

How to Sell Your Home Faster

Gary Frimann (Eagle Ridge Realty/Signature Homes & Estates) — Thu, 31 May 2012 09:05:25 -0700

Here is an Infographic on how to sell your home faster. In today's competitive market, you must do everything within your power to get your home to show nicely and attract buyers. Gone are the days of an easy sale. You are competing with distressed properties and bank-owned homes. People are price conscious, and have a hard time understanding value. Make your home stand out, listen to your Realtor's recommendations, make sure they give it plenty of exposure, make it available for showings, and lastly, good luck!

Alternatives to Foreclosures

Gary Frimann (Eagle Ridge Realty/Signature Homes & Estates) — Thu, 31 May 2012 08:52:42 -0700

People, first the good news!-- The lender does not want your house. They lose money, which is not good for them. They will work with you, which is contrary to the horror stories one hears of what happens in the real world. What I suggest all people who are in distress do is work with your lender. They will work with you. YOU HAVE OPTIONS! The worst thing you can do is ignore them. Take control, you are in the driver's seat. Repeat-- exercise your options, do not ignore the situation, as that only leads to failure. Talk to an attorney who specializes in foreclosure... The following infographic shows you your options

Walking Away from a Mortgage

Gary Frimann (Eagle Ridge Realty/Signature Homes & Estates) — Thu, 31 May 2012 08:39:07 -0700

Here's an inforgraphic on the current mortgage mess we are in. I am not a big fan of people walking away from their obligations, and quite frankly, in my market (Silicon Valley) it might make better sense to bite the bullet and pay your mortgage because it could be a better deal than what you pay for non-tax deductable rent. Quite frankly, think it out people--I've seen too many people panic!

Your thermostat controls 50% of your home's energy usage.

Gary Frimann (Eagle Ridge Realty/Signature Homes & Estates) — Wed, 30 May 2012 15:17:42 -0700

Here's a great thermostat. I have been looking for one of these for quite a while.
It can be found at www.Nest.com .It looks like a great invention.

Via Alan May, Coldwell Banker Realtor® Evanston, Illinois & Northern Suburbs (847.425.3779 almay@aol.com):

There's something that appeals to me about this new Thermostat called "Nest", that's currently available. It's form and functionality are incredible.

It's a little bit of a throwback to the old Honeywell thermostat that used to hang on the walls of 90% of the homes that we grew up in, but with a new high-tech look. It's circular, and works similarly, as you just grab the edge and turn, just like the old ones.

But better is that the Nest Thermostat learns from your adjustments. Rather than needing to learn how to program your programmable thermostat... Nest learns from your habits. You adjust the temperature up and down to make yourself comfortable, and Nest learns from those activities and starts adjusting for you.

Eventually it learns your habits so well, that you don't even have to fiddle with it anymore.

Additionally, it has a sensor that can tell when you're home, or when you're asleep, and adjusts accordingly. It's also connected to the internet, and the controls can be accessed from any internet-connected computer, ipad, or even your iphone. C'mon, that rocks!!

According to Nest's website, your thermostat controls 50% of your home's energy usage, and Nest will help you save money on that portion.

And, no, I don't get a free "Nest" for blogging about this cool new thermostat... but I wouldn't turn one down, if they wanted to send me one.

Whaddya think guys?   Guys..??   Anybody there???

Here are some Sales Statistics for Santa Clara County. This represents a good portion of Silicon Valley. Jobs numbers are up--a good sign-- and housing sales have increased as the chart shows. This is welcomed news. Numerous press reports that sale prices have increased across the nation, and median sale prices have increased for the first time since January, 2006. It has been a long time, with flat prices, but it looks like a recovery has finally taken a foothold, and the market is definitely in transition. You can see that prices are up just about 10% year over year. The following represents Santa Clara County only, and the data is from Realist:

Why Throw Away Your Old Electronics? Check Out These Other Options

Gary Frimann (Eagle Ridge Realty/Signature Homes & Estates) — Sat, 19 May 2012 10:08:22 -0700

Here is a great post by an agent in Florida. If you are a big fan of recycling, this is a very informative post. Old of our old elctronic stuff should be recycled so that it does not end up in the land fill. Please help keep our planet clean.

Via Toni Weidman- New Port Richey-FL Homes (Re/Max Sunset Realty-Trinity-Holiday-Port Richey-Hudson):

Why Throw Away Your Old Electronics? Check Out These Other Options

Do you have a pile of obsolete (to you) electronic items: Old cell phones, computers, printers? Join the club. According to the EPA, Americans bought 438 million electronic products in 2009. That means millions of other electronic gadgets became obsolete. If everyone donated or recycled those: 2 million tons of waste would not hit our landfills. Visit the EPA to find out more about it epa.gov/ecycling.

What can you do to help? Check out these options

You Can Donate It - You don’t get very much on trade-ins anyway.

Every phone you donate provides an hour of talk time to soldiers serving overseas. Go to cellphonesforsoldiers.com to print a postage-paid shipping label.

Hopeline is free cellphones and airtime for victims of domestic violence. Visit verizonwireless.com/hopeline

National Cristina Foundation matches donated computers with schools and charities in 50 states, Canada and internationally. Go to Cristina.org to find out more.

You Can Recycle it:

Check out the EPA’s e-cycling partners at epa.gov/plugin.

And you can go to www.earth911.com key in your item and zip code to get the local recycling centers near you. (BTW-did you know that 13 billions pounds of paper towels are used in the US each year?)

Dell Reconnect and Goodwill work together to make donating more convenient. You can take your computer equipment (any brand in any condition) to a participating Goodwill Center. Check it out at ww.reconnectpartnership.com

You Might Try Trading It In

Some companies offer trade-in discounts (We got them when we bought new cell phones at Sprint).

You can ship your item for free or take it to the a Best Buy Trade-In Store for a gift card. Check out the trade-in locations on the website: www.bestbuytradein.com.

Amazon.com also gives you a credit in your account for sending in eligible electronics.

Staples - Trade in used ink cartridges (up to 10/month) and receive $2 each in Staples Rewards. Go to Staples.com for locations near you.

You can always sell it to someone. Check out Usell.com for pricing on used phones.

Just think how much healthier the earth and everything in it would be without all that waste.
