The U.S. Census Bureau and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development said today that single family housing starts hit a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 630,000 in August, down about 34.9 percent compared to August 2007.

nj homes for sale: Sellstate Access New Jersey (What is the best floorplan for your family?) - 08/18/08 07:26 PM
Consider your preference for whether you prefer rooms on the ground floor or upstairs.Ideally, a floor plan should enhance your lifestyle rather than hinder. What may be livable for one family, may cause another family to sell!
Here's what I recommend:
- List the rooms you're currently using and how your use may evolve over time.- Assess your needs for extra rooms, such as in-law quarters, basement and/or attic, and garage.- Write down the measurements needed to accommodate significant pieces of furniture, such as a dining room table or china hutch.- Finally, and often overlooked, consider your need for outdoor living … (0 comments)

nj homes for sale: Sellstate Access Realty, New Jersey (How to Evaluate a Home Warranty) - 08/17/08 09:16 AM
The ideal home warranty means that you can place a call and have a major repair completed for a small fee. Usually, homebuyers can purchase a one-year warranty, and these policies are generally renewable year after year.
Sounds simple enough, right? Well, as we go through the home buying process, as your agent, I will be looking for a few more details, such as:
1. Does the Better Business Bureau have any records on the warranty company under consideration?2. Can you choose your own contractor to make repairs?3. Is the warranty company financially sound?4. Does the policy cover both patent and … (0 comments)

nj homes for sale: Sellstate Access Realty (Does Buying a Fixer Upper Pay Off?) - 08/17/08 09:12 AM
Realistically, the majority of fixer-uppers are in complete disrepair, meaning that it will cost you more to "fix it up" than to purchase a home in move-in condition. However, if you are serious about buying a sound fixer-upper, let me give you a few tips on finding a sound fixer upper:
- Look in neighborhoods with resale potential- Try to find a home that has been listed for sale for several months- Always estimate your fix up costs before buying- Avoid homes requiring structural improvements- Avoid major additions, such as adding a family room or bedroom

nj homes for sale: Sellstate Access Realty, First Time Home Buyer / Researching Neighborhoods - 08/07/08 06:59 PM
As you consider the purchase of your first home, don't stop after inspecting the property. Examine the surrounding area.
I recommend asking some detailed questions. Is it safe and well maintained? Is it a convenient location for you? Close to schools, shopping and work? Ask about the zoning laws and any vacant property located nearby. Is the city or county considering widening the street in a couple of years? Is there a railroad crossing within hearing distance?
It's perfectly all right to find your dream home in an area with which you're not familiar. But be sure to take your research … (0 comments)

As a first-time homebuyer, you're facing many questions about homeownership. Can I afford it? Will I qualify for financing? Where should I live?

As opposed to renting, the amount of your payment never changes with a fixed interest rate.3. Decorating. You're free to decorate, remodel, refinish and accessorize!4. Tax Benefits. Deduct the cost of home mortgage interest and property taxes from your yearly income … (0 comments)

nj homes for sale: Sellstate Access Realty, Ask Before Choosing Upgrades - 07/25/08 06:43 AM
Whether buying a new home, or remodeling an existing one, you want the upgrades and options you choose to personalize your home. However, options that personalize are not always the options that add value.
One of the best ways to decide on upgrades is to ask the builder how much other buyers are spending on upgrades, as well as the type of upgrades. Remember, when you go to sell your home, you will be competing with other homes in the nieghborhood that are very similar in construction to your home. Upgrades can often make the difference in the mind of a … (0 comments)
