calvert county real estate: Over Appraising??!! - 11/06/09 01:07 PM
Do we remember those days? Two of my properties have just been categorized that way and it is a hopeful sign that better days are on the horizon for sellers, aside from the short sales and foreclosures. No, they were not underpriced according to comparables when they were listed. However, they had been reduced from original listing price as most sellers have done to encourage activity. Let’s face it, values have declined even since February, 2009 and so sellers have to maintain their viability. Still, I am hopeful that 2010 will allow some of these people who want to retire to

calvert county real estate: Real Estate Ramblings - 11/08/08 04:47 PM
Ramblings of a Real Estate Agent I don't know about other agents, but I'm exhausted just trying to keep my sellers informed and on track. The reality checks have been grueling. There was a ray of sunlight last week when one of my sellers accepted an offer that was about $50,000 below initial asking price. They sat back and looked at the bigger picture and determined that for every month they had been in their home, they had experienced a $1,000 appreciation! Wow, I'm determined to use that in my business when I need to from now on. Now, they're the

calvert county real estate: Buyers With Pent-Up Energy - 09/22/08 02:02 PM
Increasingly, buyers are getting just plain tired of waiting to look for that home. This observation after I've received 4 new buyer clients in the past week. They all have been searching the internet for months and months. A few had already seen some homes but primarily they've been just waiting for the right time to jump in. They all have been working with a lender and know what's expected of them. I have had to work with a couple of them to do a little tweaking but they are prepared and ready. I said it had to happen and it

calvert county real estate: It's Not Your Parents' Retirement - 06/03/08 12:43 PM
Studies have shown that the reasons people aged 50 and older buy a new home are not the same as when their parents were the same age. In days gone by, seniors bought new homes in warmer climates for health reasons, they moved to an active adult community because they were worried about who would be taking care of their everyday needs and they suffered from "empty-nest syndrome" when their children grew up and moved out of the house. Nowadays, the reasons have changed. With people living longer and taking better care of themselves, health concerns are not a priority for

calvert county real estate: Small in Size, Big on Life - 05/27/08 01:28 PM
While Calvert County is the smallest county in the state, its standard of living is one of the highest. Over 5000 companies conduct business in Calvert County alone and employ almost 2 million residents in information technology, defense contracts, administrative services and tourism. Chesapeake Bay provides the eastern border of Calvert's peninsula while the Patuxent River provides its western border. There are plenty of creeks in Calvert County to provide beautiful scenery, a place for wildlife to roam free as well as great areas for fishing and boating. The beauty of the bay and river provide a spectacular backdrop that invite
