emerald coast real estate: New Spirit of Cooperation Among Agents- But Will It Last? - 05/23/09 01:14 PM
Remember the "old" days of selling real estate? When competitors didn't talk? When agents put themselves on pedestals? When they bragged about listings and sales? Or thought they had a "niche" no one could touch? Those days are over. The market has changed. Many real estate agents have been knocked down a peg or two, or left the business. In the "old" days, some agents wouldn't deign to show listings under certain price ranges, like under $300,000 or $200,000. Or they just limited themselves to certain towns- they wouldn't drive 25 minutes to show "regular" properties. Now, no one is "too

emerald coast real estate: Military Members Need Immediate Correction to American Recovery and Reinvestment Act - 02/26/09 09:32 PM
I am privileged to represent Major Jason M. Trew, a pilot with the United States Air Force, as a real estate client. Major Trew is stationed at Eglin Air Force Base. I have Major Trew's home listed for sale in Freeport Florida because he is being required to relocate by the Air Force to a new base. Like many others in the military, his property value has declined to an amount lower than his mortgage balance. Major Trew is not a property flipper nor a speculator. He earnestly relocated to the Emerald Coast of Florida for the military, as directed by the United States government, and

emerald coast real estate: Alan Greenspan on the Housing Market - I Don't Agree - 10/12/08 12:19 PM
Yesterday I was riding the bike at Gold's Gym in Destin FL. One of my sellers, whom I originally met there, popped onto the bike next to me. He said, "Alan Greenspan says the housing market will recover by mid-2009, what do you think?" Greenspan pointed out that there has been a "slower rate of decline" in U.S. housing prices of late. I thought I had noticed the same thing in my Emerald Coast real estate market, here in Northwest Florida. Until the last 30 days, that is. During that time, I think prices have been declining even more steeply. I

Countrywide has been sending letters to their existing home equity line borrowers in my market on the Emerald Coast of Florida. They are decreasing home equity line values. The letters read: "Countywide Home Loans is reviewing and analyzing home equity lines of credit in its servicing portfolio. As you know, home values in many areas of the country have declined.

emerald coast real estate: Welcome Janice Fiaschetti - 01/31/08 04:18 PM
I want to welcome my friend and mentor, Janice Fiaschetti, of Avion Real Estate http://avionrealestate.com/ in Connecticut, to Active Rain. Back in my great home state, Janice taught me REO when I was newly licensed, about 19 years ago. What fun I remember, and what training in details. Talk about turning in a good BPO- Janice analyzed my comps, my days on market, my pricing - everything! I learned and learned, from the best. I remember the wintry Connecticut days, trying to determine occupancy, when it was easy- snow on the ground, no footprints! Now, in Florida, I am not so lucky. Or the

emerald coast real estate: For Sale By Owners Calling ME - 01/31/08 09:13 AM
In the last two days I've had two unsolicited calls from For Sale By Owners. 1. My market is the Emerald Coast of Florida. I had a builder call me from North Georgia asking if I had anyone that might want to trade a condo for a house there. Hmmm. I told him "no", but I appreciated his creativity in trying to market his property. I told him about possibly purchasing email lists of agents for $150 and sending flyers. I recommended he talk to a LOCAL agent and hire him to give his property full exposure, not to call agents
