west babylon ny coops: Direct Postcard Mailing Works! - 10/12/11 10:40 AM
Direct Postcard Mailing Works!
Direct postcard mailings do work only if you are consistent. I got the following listing because of it:
The listing was a 1 bedroom coop unit in West Babylon NY. Sold it in 72 days. If I didn't send postcard mailings there every other month, this homeowner wouldn't have known I existed even though I used to live there and moved out 4 years ago. He had no idea I was in real estate until he received one of my postcard mailings. And, he also hired me to help him buy a new home.
It costs … (7 comments)

west babylon ny coops: Closings Can Bring On Mixed Emotions - 06/08/11 06:56 AM
Closings Can Bring On Mixed EmotionsClosings are a happy day for sellers and buyers. With all the issues that can and do come up while waiting for closing day, closing day is a relief for all.For me, I find closing day to be a mixed bag of emotions. Today I have two closings back to back. My homeowner sold his West Babylon NY Co-Op that I listed in December, 2010. We went under contract 72 days later. He is also purchasing a beautiful home in West Babylon NY. My client was wonderful to work with. Both a seller and a … (16 comments)

West Babylon NY Co-ops - Why Are There 2 Mortgages?
Saturday I picked up my homeowner and off we went to meet the home inspector for the home they are buying. Yes, that went very well. No major problems!
On our way there, they tell me that their attorney found 2 mortgages when she did the title search. They explained that when they refinanced for the interest rate, the old mortgage never came off. It looked like they have two mortgages! They refinanced many years ago too. They still have the documentation for this so when their bank who is … (8 comments)

My Sense Of Humor Got Me A New Listing
I came home for lunch today. My phone rings and I was going to let it go into voice mail but said, "ah, I better answer it". So I'm speaking with this very nice man and he wants me to list a co-op in West Babylon NY. As we are talking he asks, "what is an SEO WHORE?" I damn near dropped dead! He's reading that post I wrote earlier in the week while we are on the phone! I explained to him what SEO is. I also explained why I was … (25 comments)

west babylon ny coops: West Babylon NY Coops - The Steps Taken Before Getting To The Closing Table - 07/14/10 08:04 AM
West Babylon NY Coops - The Steps Taken Before Getting To The Closing Table You do not own a co-op. You own shares. You are responsible for the interior. There are rules to follow that have been set up by the co-op board. Some are stringent, others are more flexible. Some close in 90 days. Some in 60. It really depends upon how fast the management company and the co-op board move. Before making an offer on a co-op, make sure your Real Estate Agent knows co-ops and also your Real Estate Attorney. If not, the process could take longer. … (15 comments)

west babylon ny coops: West Babylon NY Coops - What Are They? - 02/10/10 11:03 AM
West Babylon NY Coops - What Are They?
Co-ops are apartments in small or large complexes. You do not own the land or the unit itself, you own shares and you are also a shareholder. You are responsible for the walls in.
There are a group of shareholders called the Board. Shareholders vote for these Board members so that there is some control over what goes on in the development and to make sure the By-Laws are upheld.
Then you have the property management company. This company is hired by the Board to take care of the grounds maintenance and they … (2 comments)
