reno homes: ATTENTION HOME SELLERS & BUYERS: HOW TO GET AHEAD NOT BY $4,000 or $40,000 or even $140,000 BUT AS MUCH AS $155,000 - 05/01/09 05:58 PM
“Advertising people who ignore research are as dangerous as generals who ignore decodes of enemy signals.”
-David Ogilvy, "pope of advertising"
By: Joe Salcedo of Reno Real Estate Blog
Understanding your market can put you ahead not by $4,000 or $4,000 or even $140,000 but as much as $155,000. Or if you choose not to heed, pick $155,000 from your pocket.
My client April (not her real name) was strongly advised (with graphs to show her) to sell her house in August of 2007. She waited till the market got better. We could have sold it … (6 comments)

reno homes: PAUL HARVEY: "I HAVEN'T SEEN A MONUMENT ERECTED TO A PESSIMIST" - 03/05/09 02:51 AM
Superb photo by: marco welt
"I haven't seen a monument erected to a pessimist"
Oh what a refeshing quote to hear in this dire financial crisis we're in. But where do we draw the line between being an optimist and in touch with the brutal truth of reality?
There's a fine line.
I love what Jim Stockedale said "confront the brutal facts, but never lose hope that in the end we will prevail." Now that's more like it. Can you imagine what would happen to our profession's credibility if we put into that into practice?!
I sense people are looking … (14 comments)

reno homes: I HAD TO STOP IN MY BOOTS WHEN I READ THIS TODAY FROM A LOCAL BLOGGER: "Our current economic times have many folks thinking back to simplicity, core, value, importance." - 02/06/09 03:51 PM
Superb photo from: neloqua
Have you found yourself on those moments when you read something that's written straight from the heart and you just say to yourself, "wow thanks for putting on paper what I can't explain inside."
That was me thirty minutes ago when I accidentally stumbled upon this article, and from all places, a blogger in Reno.
I'm telling you, Reno is much more than topless women and blackjacks.
I'm aware that letters like these invoke some kind of "weird-guilt". But that's not my purpose--to make you feel bad. Actually, it's more of an "weird-encouragement", that if … (2 comments)

A friend of mine called me and told me that a local band was playing in the Annual Labor Day Weekend Reno Rib Cook Off. It was being held in front of the John Ascuaga's Nugget. A few minutes away from Downtown Reno.
I phoned my folks to get ready and make sure to 'prepare' hungry.
This year twenty-four barbecue teams from all over the country,and hundreds of thousands of visitors visit Sparks and John Ascuaga's Nugget for the six-day event that is widely considered the biggest, most prestigious rib-cooking event in the United States.

reno homes: 300 Sunny days in Reno,NV - 09/10/07 01:52 AM
People often talk about sunsets and sunrises. How it could just make you feel alive. Sunrise and sunsets have always been used as a backdrop for poetry,painting,arts. Those things that feed our souls.
There is something about the sun that just makes me feel alive. Haven't you noticed why it seems that every time we lie down on the beach or stroll around the park in the noonday sun.- We just feel a lot better. Try it. When you feel exhausted or overwhelmed with the everyday happenings. Go outside. Be quiet. Lie down on the grass. See if it changes anything.

When is a good time to buy a home in the Reno-Sparks area? is a question you might be asking yourself for quite a while now...
I was having a conversation with a client of mine last Tuesday. He's been looking for a home in Reno for the the past 3 months. Joe and I have been showing him properties that have fitted with what he was looking for in a home. One of which is a brand new home in the up and coming neighborhood in Damonte Ranch. He really likes it and told me that it is the number … (0 comments)

reno homes: Tips when buying a home in Reno-Sparks NV - 09/10/07 01:43 AM
' Now may be the perfect time to buy a home in Reno-Sparks '
This was the main headline of a well respected home magazine I was reading yesterday. Where are they coming from? is it really? Do I agreee with it? Yes and No. Let's dig in deeper.
Here are two reasons why most people think that now is a good time to buy:
1. Interest rates are still affordable.
What I think:
Comparing it to the past 2 years, it has indeed gone up a couple of points. But history tells us that it is still … (0 comments)

reno homes: Bleeding in the Reno Sparks Homes Market - 09/07/07 06:58 PM
Two Nights ago my three year old boy woke me up crying about his nose bleeding. Being the super dad that I am, I calmly told him, "Don't worry the bleeding will stop." It took about five minutes before it totally stopped and sure enough I was the hero in my boy's eyes after which he said, "You're smart dad, you know everything".
Basing it on my past experiences with nose bleeds, I knew for sure that it will stop. I just could not make it stop right there and then when my son demanded it.
It's pretty much the … (3 comments)
