katz realty group: You are only upside down if you sell! - 09/03/10 04:45 AM
Sometimes it is difficult to practice what you preach, but my wife showed me that she listens to me, when she was able to calm me down with my own advice.  We live in a nice townhouse in the heart of Aventura, where the location is incredible, with great school districts.  The problem is that we would like to move to a single family house, but are close to $100,000 upside down.  Finding an extra $100k to bring to a closing table on a house that you are selling and not buying, is a nauseating thought, so I felt trapped.  It … (3 comments)

katz realty group: The do not call list is a joke!! - 09/02/10 05:07 AM
We have all heard about stiff penalties for not scrubbing our cold call lists for people registered on the "Do not call list", but what is really being done?  I personally do not cold call, so I do not worry about it, but as a registered individual on the list, I find the number of unwelcome calls that I recieve unnerving!  At first, I started reporting them.  Then, when I realized that the same companies were calling me again, and new people kept calling as well, I wrote a note to the Do Not Call List agency on their site, asking … (4 comments)

katz realty group: Choose your title agent wisely! - 08/27/10 03:42 AM
As a real estate agent in Aventura, Florida, I have seen a lot of difficult deals throughout the last 4 years.  With the collapse of the housing market, the landscape changed dramatically for all involved in real estate, with nothing resembling the wonderful days of "The Boom".  At first, sellers were unrealistic about the decline in home values, so we had a surplus of overpriced properties on the market, and buyers who were already firmly rooted in the new economy looking for a deal.  With this huge separation between buyers and sellers, very little product was moved.  Next, we entered the … (1 comments)

katz realty group: Realtors, Don't be your worst enemy! - 08/19/10 10:23 AM
As I search through the MLS looking for properties to send to my client in Canada from Sunny South Florida, I am baffled at a phenomenon that I have seen throughout my career....listings without photos!!  Are you kidding me?!  Do you take this profession so lightly, that you will not even take a few photographs, in order to maximize your listing's exposure?!  I am not talking about newly listed properties where the photos will be coming soon, I am talking about older and stale(due to no photos no doubt) listings.  When I am sending an email to a client, and I … (2 comments)

katz realty group: My plan to fix the housing market - 08/19/10 04:38 AM
Well we really did a good job of messing up this time! During the housing boom, we were all having such a good time, why should we have cared or even thought about the consequences? Because everything has a price tag, as my dad always said, and nobody was asking what this housing boom could cost us. Well, look back at what was going on! Banks were lending money to unqualified buyers, with little or no documentation. People were withdrawing and spending HUGE sums of money from their Home Equity Lines, based on appraisals that were often very inflated. "Investors" were … (2 comments)
