first time home buyer: Want to lower your carbon footprint? Visit the Re-Store!!! - 11/12/08 06:43 AM
Those who know me know I like working on projects around the house, inside and out.  Those who know me really well, know I love saving money on those projects.  The habitat for humanity organization recently opened the Re-Store in Dover NH.  When I first heard of the idea, I thought "this place is going to be full of junk people don't want".  When I actually stepped foot inside Re-Store, I could not believe the bargains they had on all sorts of construction materials both donated from companies like Home Depot and Lowe's, to salvaged items from remodels in perfectly good shape.  From … (0 comments)

first time home buyer: Timber Framing Home Planning Event - 11/12/08 06:06 AM
I am attending a Timber Framing Home Planning Event this Saturday in Manchester.  If you are unfamiliar with "Green" building, this is a great way to see some of the cutting edge construction techniques being used.  Timber frame homes help with your impact on the earth and reduce your carbon footprint so if you're interested in this sort of thing make sure you register (or if you just want to peek at some of the most beautifully constructed homes) at Riverbend Timber Framing, here's is the itinerary for the day:

first time home buyer: Protecting your Buyers & Yourself: Bank "Trick" #4 - 10/16/08 07:35 AM
I was in shock when I read this most recent addition to a contract with a bank addendum because it essentially gave the bank carte-blanche over the P&S.
Article 15.  The Seller reserves the right to terminate the Contract for any reason in its sole discretion.  Should the Seller terminate this contract, the Seller's sole liability to the Buyer will be to return the Buyer's deposit, at which time the Contract and all addendums thereto shall cease and terminate and Seller and Buyer shall have no further obligations, liabilities, or responsibilities to one another.
In the dozens of addendums I've had the opportunity to … (13 comments)

first time home buyer: Protecting your Buyers & Yourself: Bank "Trick" #3 - 10/16/08 07:02 AM
With the current economy the way it is right now and foreclosures rolling into the market in waves, I'm sure many of my fellow agents have seen this clause already, but buyers may not have.  The importance being, make sure you disclose the following clause to your buyers and the lender they are working with so all parties understand the timetable they are bound by.
Article 10.  (Which can vary) Buyer(s) may take possession after the final closing papers are signed by the Seller and the Contract is funded.  Possession to the property may not be taken before the occurrence of both … (4 comments)

first time home buyer: recession doesnt mean depression - 01/23/08 01:28 PM
 
     I know the majority of america is freaking out about our nations economy right now, and some of it is rightly deserved, but i think the majority of americans have some misunderstandings about what it actually means.  A recession is when the economy has two quarters of downward growth in a row.  Can this have some negative affects?  Yes, but what you need to keep in mind is that recession doesnt mean depression.  Since the great depression during World War II, there have been 10 recessions and although people have struggled, they have made it through rough times.  Most importantly, the … (2 comments)
