http://activerain.com/blogs/ipopilevsky en-us http://activerain.com/blogsview/2538434/so-what-s-a-good-way-to-find-out-about-staten-island-neighborhoods- <p><strong>W</strong>hether you coming from Brooklyn and need to know more about Staten Island has to offer, or you're looking for the history of some Staten Island landmarks? Or maybe just a Staten Islander wanting to know more about the history of the neighborhood? We have been compiling some of the best local information on places across New York City's outermost borough.<br>&nbsp; <br>We always felt it was imperative for us to provide the best information available about what this great borough has to offer. Whether it's exploring&nbsp; <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/blog/the-sequine-mansion-acres-of-shaded-bliss.html" target="_blank">Seguine Mansion</a> and Alice Austin House, while learning about the neighborhood of Great Kills or New Dorp, we are putting people in the know.<br>&nbsp;I found it amazing that some Staten island&rsquo;s more popular lakes like <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/About-Silver-Lake-Staten-Island-NY.php" target="_blank">Silver Lake</a> and <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/About-Grasmere-Staten-Island-NY.php" target="_blank">Grasmere Lake</a> were used for ice harvesting. I also learned that the Dutch mined Todt Hill for iron ore and the community was once called &ldquo;Yserberg," the Dutch translation for Iron Hill. The <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/About-Todt-Hill-Staten-Island-NY.php" target="_self">community of Todt Hill</a> was named Iron Hill prior to Todt hill. This is to name just a tiny amount of the research we collected on Staten Island towns and their history.<br>&nbsp;<br>We have provided our visitors with of the most insightful research and reports on the history, origins and people that once called Staten Island their home. You can find out about Staten Island neighborhoods under our buying guide tab.&nbsp;&nbsp; We hope you have fun knowing about what our hometown has evolved from. Over the next few weeks we will have even more history and facts about Staten Island for our visitors to enjoy.&nbsp; See you then...</p> <div class="agent_signature"> <p><a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com%20%20%20" target="_blank"><img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/9/7/5/7/ar129453642675797.gif" height="79" alt="" width="210"></a></p> <p>On Your Team.</p> <p>Irena Popilevsky</p> <p>NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker/Owner</p> <p>RealEstateSINY.com</p> <p>(917) 579-4455</p> <p><a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com">www.irenapopilevsky.com</a></p> </div> Irena Popilevsky (RealEstateSINY.com) Mon, 03 Oct 2011 14:10:59 -0700 http://activerain.com/blogsview/2538434/so-what-s-a-good-way-to-find-out-about-staten-island-neighborhoods- http://activerain.com/blogsview/2520225/our-company-continues-to-make-navigating-staten-island-homes-for-sale-easier- <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Locally, many potential home buyers and sellers like to catch a glimpse of what homes for sale are available within a particular neighborhood. While we do offer more advanced map searches, we found many of our website visitors like to make their home search more encompassing without some of the more technical map search features.</span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span>&nbsp;</span>Locals are also, more particularly, knowledgeable about the zip codes they live in or maybe looking to see what&rsquo;s on the market. The difference between a zip code search and a particular neighborhood search is it covers more territory. For example, someone looking forward to seeing what <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/Homes-for-Sale-in-10314-Staten-Island.php" target="_self">homes for sale in 10314</a>, would find listings within Bulls Head, Westerleigh, Manor heights, <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/Castleton-Corners-Homes-For-Sale.php" target="_self">Castleton Corners</a>, which gives the visitor a greater spectrum to work within. Same would be searching for homes in 10306, which would include <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/New-Dorp-Homes-For-Sale.php" target="_self">New Dorp</a>, Todt Hill, Grant City, Oakwood and Bay Terrace. What we are trying to accomplish is simplicity for our visitors, which is both more encompassing without having to be neighborhood specific. Not to mention, a bit simpler to navigate. <span>&nbsp;</span>So if you&rsquo;re looking for a <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/Home-for-Sale-10301-Staten-Island.php" target="_blank">home in 10301</a> on Staten Island&rsquo;s North Shore, somewhere in between like <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/Homes-for-Sale-in-10308-Staten-Island.php" target="_self">10308</a> or wander down to see what <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/Homes-for-Sale-in-10307-Staten-Island.php" target="_self">homes are available in 10307</a> on Staten Island southernmost side, we made it a bit more east to find. <span>&nbsp;</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Once again, we continue to strive in providing our visitors a much simpler approach to finding their next home, or just browsing to see what&rsquo;s up <a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com/Staten-Island-Neighborhoods.php" target="_blank">for sale in their community</a>.

It doesn't matter if you are buying your first home or you are re entering the real estate market. The market got a temporary boost when the government put the federal homebuyer tax credit into effect. In April when those tax credits expired, the market dropped to the lowest levels in ten years. The buyers who stand to benefit the most from the weak market and low interest rates are first time buyers who don't have an existing home to sell. But even with these things in your favor, there are still some very commen mistakes that can be made. Many people think that they don't need an agent to help them find a home. And while it may be true that you can find a home on your own, a qualified and compitant real estate agent can make the process easier. Real estate agents know the current market and have access to all of the most up to the minute listings. They can help you find a house in your price range, they will do all the negotiating for you, set up home inspections and guide you in the area of financing. Find an agent that you are comfortable with. Ask friends and relatives for referrals and meet with 3 or more agents before selecting one to work with. There are many tools available to you on the internet that can be used to help you in the <a href="http://www.statenisland4sale.com">search for a home</a>. But you should use them as guides and let a professional help you in the end. Many people use <a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com/Calculators/page_2387453.html"></a><a href="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/mortgage-calculator.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-919" title="mortgage calculator" src="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/mortgage-calculator.jpg" height="124" alt="" width="83"></a> and mortgage sites to find out what they can afford to spend on a home, only to be disappointed when they find out that lenders will not land them the amount they thought they qualified for. The process for obtaining a mortgage has changed tremendously in the last few years. Applicants will be subject to stricter criteria and several credit checks. It is best that you visit a bank or mortgage lender before you even begin your search for a home. Most agents won't even take you out looking for homes without a pre-qualification form a lender. Once you have your pre-qualification, you will know what price range to look in. Another common mistake is the home buyer who wants to buy an older home at a lesser price, and remodel it. The cost of remodeling and rennovating older homes is not always worth the lower price of the home. These repairs can be very costly. If you have your heart set on an older home, ask for a long due-diligence period, this way if you find out that the cost of the repairs isn't worth it, you have time to back out. Along the same line, don't fall so hard for a house that you neglect to take in the neighborhood. Sometimes when you love a house so much you tend to block out the negative things about the neighborhood. Is it too noisy? Too many kids? Not enough parking spaces? These things may not seem as important when you first start looking, but you will live in this home and this neighborhood for a long time, so you should make sure that you will be comfortable there. You can always fix up the home that way you like, but there isn't much you can do about the neighborhood. Finally, with the market being hit so hard, many home buyers think that they can pay what ever they want for a home and make very low offers. While it is okay to start off low, you should keep your offer as close to the comps as possible. Granted, in this market, most homeowners are not fielding multiple offers for their homes, but they don't want to give them away either. When you find a home that you are interested in, base your bid on the prices of <a href="http://www.pricemyhouse4free.com">recenly sold comparable homes in the area.</a> There are good deals to be had out there, keep your expectations realistic and you will find the home for you. <div class="agent_signature"> <p><a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com%20%20%20" target="_blank"><img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/9/7/5/7/ar129453642675797.gif" height="79" alt="" width="210"></a></p> <p>On Your Team.</p> <p>Irena Popilevsky</p> <p>NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker/Owner</p> <p>RealEstateSINY.com</p> <p>(917) 579-4455</p> <p><a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com">www.irenapopilevsky.com</a></p> </div> Irena Popilevsky (RealEstateSINY.com) Fri, 15 Oct 2010 09:03:06 -0700 http://activerain.com/blogsview/1915170/mistakes-home-buyers-make-real-estate-staten-island-ny http://activerain.com/blogsview/1909852/34-000-price-reduction-amazing-deal-on-staten-island-ny <table cellspacing="0" height="100%" cellpadding="0" width="100%"><tr><td><div style="text-align: center;

It is one that will take a lot of thought. It is a decision that you will have to live with for at least 5 to 10 years to come, so you should make sure that you are choosing the home that is right for you. There are so many things to consider: size of house and/or property, neighborhood, schools, parks, convenience to shopping and transportation, and most of all price and how that fits in with your budget. With so much to consider you would think that it will take forever to find the perfect home. When you make the decision to buy a home you should set a plan and stick to it. Remember that its the quality not the quantity that counts. First and most importantly, if you are buying a home with a spouse or parents or anyone else, make very sure what you want. Make sure that you talk about all of the features that you want and also the things that might be deal breakers. You don't want to waste time looking at 1 family homes if your spouse has his or hers heart set on a 2 family home. Make a list of exactly what you want and tell your agent that you do not want to waste time looking at homes that do not fit the bill. Decide what areas you want and which areas you will not even consider. Make a separate list of features that would be nice to have but are not must haves. Have this list with you whenever you go out looking at homes,and update it often, as your idea of what you want might change as you look at homes. You might see things that you hadn't considered before, you should add these to your list. And when you go out looking at houses, only bring the people who will be making the decision. Don't bring along friends or relatives because often times their opinions will only confuse you more. You should set a deadline, this doesn't have to be set in stone, but oftentimes when there is a goal in sight, it makes it easier to make a decision. If you feel that you have all the time in the world, you will find yourself looking endlessly for the perfect home. <a href="http://www.statenisland4sale.com">View Staten Island listings by Zip Code</a> <a href="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/mortgage-calculator1.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-888" title="mortgage calculator" src="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/mortgage-calculator1.jpg" height="190" alt="" width="170"></a>&lt; Before you start your home search, you should go to a reputable bank and get pre approved. The bank will tell you how much money you are qualified to borrow for a mortgage. This is very important so that you do not waste time looking at homes that you can't afford. Now that you have a price range in mind your agent can narrow the field of available homes for you to look at. <a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com/Calculators/page_2387453.html">Mortgage calculator</a> Last but not least, you need to start by finding a reputable agent. Make sure that your agent is aware of what you want and don't want in a home. If you find this agent is showing you homes that do not fit your criteria you should find another agent. You do not want to waste time looking at homes that you would not consider or can't afford. <a href="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/real-estate1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-890" title="real estate" src="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/real-estate1.jpg" height="220" alt="" width="229"></a> <a href="http://wp.me/prCwl-e4">How to hire a real estate agent?</a> <div class="agent_signature"> <p><a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com%20%20%20" target="_blank"><img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/9/7/5/7/ar129453642675797.gif" height="79" alt="" width="210"></a></p> <p>On Your Team.</p> <p>Irena Popilevsky</p> <p>NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker/Owner</p> <p>RealEstateSINY.com</p> <p>(917) 579-4455</p> <p><a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com">www.irenapopilevsky.com</a></p> </div> Irena Popilevsky (RealEstateSINY.com) Fri, 10 Sep 2010 12:45:43 -0700 http://activerain.com/blogsview/1849047/learn-how-to-streamline-the-process-for-a-satisfying-and-short-house-hunt- http://activerain.com/blogsview/1846982/how-to-hire-a-real-estate-agent <a href="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/real-estate-agent.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-874" title="real estate agent" src="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/real-estate-agent.jpg" height="122" alt="" width="100"></a> When thinking of selling your home, most people will consider to hire a personal friend in the business. Is that how you were hired where you work? I didn't think so. Real Estate Agents get paid big bucks for two major reasons. The first reason is access to the<a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com/Staten_Island_MLS_Listings/page_2387461.html"> Multiple Listing Service </a>(MLS). Access to the MLS exposes your home to the most potential buyers. But the second reason, they're supposed to be experts at marketing your home. That is how you will separate the week from the champ. How? by asking them questions you were asked when you applied for your job. The three most important questions to ask a real estate agent before you hire a real estate agent are: <a href="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/question-mark-sign2.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-878" title="question mark sign" src="http://irenapopilevsky.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/question-mark-sign2.jpg" height="116" alt="" width="116"></a> 1) Experience - How long have you been in the business and are you a full-time or part-time real estate agent? 2) Effectiveness - How much property have you personally sold in the past year or how many homes have you personally sold in the past year? 3) Execution - How are you specifically planing on marketing my property? What's you plan? newspaper ads these days are only being to satisfy the homeowner, but this is not how real estate is being sold today. Internet! Internet! Internet! These are the new three words in real estate! <a href="http://www.pricemyhouse4free.com">What's my home worth?</a> <div class="agent_signature"> <p><a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com%20%20%20" target="_blank"><img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/9/7/5/7/ar129453642675797.gif" height="79" alt="" width="210"></a></p> <p>On Your Team.</p> <p>Irena Popilevsky</p> <p>NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker/Owner</p> <p>RealEstateSINY.com</p> <p>(917) 579-4455</p> <p><a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com">www.irenapopilevsky.com</a></p> </div> Irena Popilevsky (RealEstateSINY.com) Thu, 09 Sep 2010 12:45:46 -0700 http://activerain.com/blogsview/1846982/how-to-hire-a-real-estate-agent http://activerain.com/blogsview/1821906/invest-in-home-remodeling-projects <a href="http://statenislandnyrealestateblog.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/bathroom-2010-08-26-003.jpg"><img title="bathroom 2010-08-26 003" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-269" src="http://statenislandnyrealestateblog.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/bathroom-2010-08-26-003.jpg?w=300" height="169" alt="" width="300"></a> Many homeowners when thinking about selling think about spending some money on projects around the house. When deciding on a remodeling project you want to spend your money wisely. If you can only tackle one project consider remodeling your bathroom. While many remodeling projects return only pennies on the investment, other than the kitchen, your bathroom is the most essential room of the house. Besides your kitchen, bathroom remodeling is the one home improvement project that will get you 90% or more return for your investment. An updated bathroom is among the most important upgrades on home buyers lists. If your home only has one bathroom, you might want to consider adding upgrades such as a double sink or separate shower and tub. These things make it easier for more than one person to share the bathroom at the same time. Depending on the size of your budget, your remodeling project can consist of fresh paint, updating your faucets and light fixtures and changing your shower and window curtains or a complete remodel, replacing tub, toilet, tiles, even changing the layout. Whatever improvements your budget allows, there is no doubt that updating your bathroom is a project that is worth investing in. It will make your home more attractive to buyers. <div class="agent_signature"> <p><a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com%20%20%20" target="_blank"><img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/9/7/5/7/ar129453642675797.gif" height="79" alt="" width="210"></a></p> <p>On Your Team.</p> <p>Irena Popilevsky</p> <p>NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker/Owner</p> <p>RealEstateSINY.com</p> <p>(917) 579-4455</p> <p><a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com">www.irenapopilevsky.com</a></p> </div> Irena Popilevsky (RealEstateSINY.com) Thu, 26 Aug 2010 18:34:25 -0700 http://activerain.com/blogsview/1821906/invest-in-home-remodeling-projects http://activerain.com/blogsview/1783211/sunday-open-house-08-08-10-in-westerleigh-of-staten-island-ny <p>Open house Sunday 08/08/10 at 19 Bryson Avenue Staten Island, NY between 1-3 P.M.</p> <p><a href="http://wp.me/pVOZM-3s" target="_blank">Click here for details</a></p> <div class="agent_signature"> <p><a href="http://www.realestatesiny.com%20%20%20" target="_blank"><img src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/7/9/7/5/7/ar129453642675797.gif" height="79" alt="" width="210"></a></p> <p>On Your Team.</p> <p>Irena Popilevsky</p> <p>NYS Licensed Real Estate Broker/Owner</p> <p>RealEstateSINY.com</p> <p>(917) 579-4455</p> <p><a href="http://www.irenapopilevsky.com">www.irenapopilevsky.com</a></p> </div> Irena Popilevsky (RealEstateSINY.com) Thu, 05 Aug 2010 14:51:43 -0700 http://activerain.com/blogsview/1783211/sunday-open-house-08-08-10-in-westerleigh-of-staten-island-ny http://activerain.com/blogsview/1752851/just-listed-home-for-sale-clifton-staten-island-ny OLDER COLONIAL W/ FULL BASEMENT, 3 BEDROOMS, LARGE EIK, PANTRY RM, VERY LARGE BACKYARD, FULL WALK IN ATTIC.
