harborfields: BLOGGING has turned me into a maniac!!! I am HOOKED!!!
- 01/31/11 03:47 PM
Do you know that when I started on January 1 to be seriously committed to writing a blog a day for the month of January, I FINALLY think “wow, now these aren’t bad” …. They sound pretty good to me, at least some of them do. I have created what I think is a great way to write my blogs. I write them in Microsoft Word, and I save them in Microsoft Word. I was recently with a realtor friend who says, I always forget what I said! So I told her what I do and she now thinks I am … (1 comments)

- 01/31/11 03:32 PM
HOW CAN PEOPLE FIND ME? Sometimes I think if you were to “GOOGLE EARTH” me, nobody could find me even if I were a 100 Story building!!!... Why am I not getting the recognition I was hoping for?????? H E L P!!! Well, I have been seriously writing daily blogs for the month of January and hoping, hoping that someone would find me and want me to be their personal Realtor!!! Guess what, after returning from a vacation I got an e-mail from someone who read my blog about our local area and LOVED it and I will be connecting with … (3 comments)
harborfields: It's IMPOSSIBLE for a realtor to take a vacation .... NOT!
- 01/31/11 03:20 PM
How could I ever get away? What if the buyer I have been working with wants to see the home of their dreams...... and of course, this home comes on the market just as soon as the plan takes off! And they are calling you that they HAVE to get into the house. Should you go away? I am now speaking from recent experience....... The snow was piled "up to here" and we are feeling burnt out and gloomy at the reality of the market. The opportunity came up and we took advantage and flew from piles of snow to paradise....... … (2 comments)
harborfields: Harborfields ... its beginning in 1956........
- 01/31/11 03:06 PM
When my family first moved to Centerport in March 1955 I was in the 7th Grade at the Little Neck School on Little Neck Road in Centerport. This building now houses the Centerport Methodist Church and Pre School. This school consisted of two classes for each grade level. The classes were split up in two different groups of kids…. The kids that lived on the Huntington Beach Side, which was the west side of the Mill Dam Bridge, they were in one class, and the other kids were from the east side of the Mill Dam, or the Little Neck Peninsula … (0 comments)
harborfields: De-Clutter The Outside of your Refrigerator...before You list your house!!!
- 01/21/11 01:05 PM
De Cluttering the outside of your refrigerator…… A GREAT idea!!! There are so many things to do to declutter a house. Here is something that is really out of control for some people in the kitchen but I just saw a great idea the other day that I wanted to share with you. Refrigerator Magnets! Ah, Refrigerator Magnets…. Sometimes a collection of these appears ALL over a person’s refrigerator and did you ever see them in a photo of a house listing…….. This is a definite NO NO to have on the fridge for Photos….. Do you know what refrigerator magnets … (54 comments)

harborfields: MY ENGAGEMENT RING COST 40,000 CLAMS..........
- 01/10/11 02:25 PM
Here on Long Island, Clam digging is a job that boys sometimes learn when they are growing up living near the water. Sometimes they go on to become clam diggers as their livelihood. Others do it as summer jobs to make money during the summers when they are going to college. It’s a great job! You are on the water, get a nice healthy tan, get strong when doing it, and make a lot of money!!! What could be better!!!
In 1950’s clams in Northport Bay/Harbor and Centerport Harbor were plentiful. After a day of digging you could make … (3 comments)
Boy do Suzanne & Brian Asher have great memories and stories to share!!!
There was this great restaurant in Centerport. It was called Links Log Cabin. Here during the 50’s and probably before and after that, people from all over the island would come to enjoy a great dinner here in Centerport! It was a very popular place, and you would usually have to wait on line to get in!!! Our family went to Links when we came out to Centerport to “Visit” our … (51 comments)
Ah, the Mill Pond Inn (currently the Mill Pond House) on Route 25A in Centerport. Suzanne & Brian Asher were so lucky to grow up in Centerport and go to Harborfields School District! What a highlight!… Happy days, a new High School of Harborfields, new friends, fun things to do! Back when my parents first moved to Centerport in 1955, they discovered the Mill Pond Inn. My Dad and Mother went to the Mill Pond Inn at least 2 times a week for dinner, and of course, “dragged” me along. When my Dad would return from a trip (was … (2 comments)
harborfields: GREENLAWN ESTABLISHMENTS in the '50's
- 01/06/11 02:33 PM
Harborfields Community “Way Back When”………… There were a few Greenlawn establishments back then around the ‘50’s that we all frequented or at least knew about!!! Scudder’s (on the corner of Broadway and Gates Street which is currently a little Greek Restaurant, It’s Greek to Me!)… This was a soda fountain where you could purchase coffee, egg creams, magazines, newspapers, penny candy and that kind of stuff… The place smelled of cigarettes and coffee. The teachers of Harborfields met there in the morning before school and sat at the cranky little spinning stools to talk about what was going on for the … (0 comments)
harborfields: I WAS SLAMMED!!!

Facebook in the 50’s…. Harborfields School District………… Hey, Did you know that back in the 50’s in Harborfields High School we DID HAVE FACEBOOK……… Only it was in a different form………….. It was called “SLAM BOOKS”………. These were very popular…. They were usually spiral bound books that we purchased at Mrs. Quarry’s store in the Village of Greenlawn that we specifically wrote “SLAM BOOK” on the front cover. We all had our own “Slam Book” and we could keep track of what different kids were doing and what everybody thought of them. Inside the book each student in the … (2 comments)
Mariah Carey Slept Here………… Harborfields caters to a wide range of talents from academics to the arts and athletics. Graduates of this district's High School sitting on an open field or plateau rising to the south beside the Long Island Sound, includes Pulitzer prize winner Scott Higham and singer Mariah Carey. My husband and I (We are Suzanne & Brian Asher, “The Winning Team in Real Estate”) grew up in this very wonderful and special community……… The community I am talking about is Centerport/Greenlawn/Huntington in Huntington Township on Long Island ……. The school district is Harborfields, a very sought after school … (0 comments)
harborfields: GET THAT HOUSE SOLD IN 2011... HEREIN HOLDS THE KEY
- 01/02/11 02:18 AM
This is our new experiment!!! Let's see just how it works!!! We, Suzanne & Brian Asher of Signature Properties have convinced our seller that he needed to change his house listing to 3% to the selling agent ......... We explained and convinced him that selling agents would be more interested in showing his house at 3% than another comparable house giving out only 2%............. We are waiting.......... house hasn't sold yet!!! LOL ... But we think this will hopefully put him at the top of the Real Estate game!!! House is beautiful! We actually dropped the price too!!! Our … (3 comments)
