relocation: Syracuse Museum and Cultural Center - 01/27/11 01:22 AM
I know that this video is a little long, but my tour guide was so enthusiastic and "in the know" that I practically forgot that I was recording our conversation. The museum is located at 2000 W and 1700 S and is part of a larger complex that includes the Syracuse City Municipal Building, the Post Office, the Northwest Branch of the Davis County Library and the Public Safety Building. The center consists of four individual buildings. The barn seems much more interesting than the displays in the main building, primarily because it is set up for more interactive learning. You

relocation: Ogden City's New iPhone app - 11/17/10 07:26 PM
Appropriately named, iOgden, this is a handy little pocket relocation guide. Right now, it's only available for iPhone, but the Android version should be released shortly. Ogden's mayor, Matthew Godfrey, is to be commended for this "first city in the nation to have an iPhone app for interactive use for visitors and citizens". There's even a way for the public to report issues, particularly code violations - unkempt yards, cars on lawns, etc. Shopping, Dining, Recreations, "Deals", City Help, Event Calendar, Attractions and that nifty little Report an Issue function. Who says that Ogden's not a cool place to be?

Canyons School District - Home. There hasn't been a new school district established in Utah in almost 100 years, but little more than a year ago, in July 2009, the cities of Cottonwood Heights, Sandy, Draper, Midvale and Alta broke away from the Jordan School District to create the new Canyons School District. Their website is fully functional and comprehensive, and even includes information and resources for parents who choose to home school their children.

relocation: A Marketing Strategy That Works ... Step 5 "An Incentive for Everyone a.k.a. Show Me The Money" - 01/21/09 11:35 AM
Step 1 ... "Admit that it is a Buyer's Market" Step 2 ... "Price Your Home to Sell and Plan on Negotiating" Step 3 ... "Target Realtors® Working with Ready, Willing and Able Buyers" Step 4 ... "Make Waves and Just Say No to the Status Quo" Step 5 ... "An Incentive for Everyone a.k.a. Show Me The Money" The fifth and final component of the Marketing Strategy That Works are incentives. This segment is short, sweet and to the point. 1. Buyer ... I offer a cash bonus to the buyer at closing, ranging from $250 to $2,000, depending on the price of the home. Who

relocation: A Marketing Strategy That Works ... Step 3 "Target Realtors® Working with Ready, Willing and Able Buyers" - 01/21/09 11:30 AM
Step 1 ... "Admit that it is a Buyer's Market" Step 2 ... "Price your Home to Sell and Plan on Negotiating" Step 3 ... "Target Realtors® Working with Ready, Willing and Able Buyers" The MLS remarks section is ground zero for distinguishing my client's homes from the hundreds of others on the market. Trite descriptions are ineffective and puffery is simply annoying to other agents when it is in the MLS. This is the place where I have the opportunity to tell other agents why my client's home should "make the cut" when they are screening houses to show their

relocation: A Marketing Strategy That Works ... Step 2 "Price your Home to Sell and Plan on Negotiating" - 01/21/09 11:21 AM
Step 1 ... "Admit that it is a Buyer's Market" Step 2 ... "Price your Home to Sell and Plan on Negotiating" Price your home to sell ... When I prepare my pre-listing market evaluation for my clients, I assess the "current" market value using the following criteria: 1. I use sold comparables no older than 90 days, the more recent the better, and then adjust for the appreciation/depreciation rate for the most recent quarterly statistics for the community. Since distressed sales (short sales and foreclosures) are so prevelent right now, I incorporate these comparables according to their percentage of the market.

relocation: A Marketing Strategy That Works ... Step 1 "Admit That It Is A Buyer's Market" - 01/21/09 11:15 AM
I have spent a great deal of time analyzing what is happening in our local real estate market. Here is a summary of my research based on MLS data, discussions with other agents and the feedback I've received from my own buyer clientele. 1. Buyers absolutely will NOT buy a home right now unless the BUYER feels that it is an UNBELIEVABLY PHENOMENAL "deal". 2. Buyers EXPECT sellers to pay their closing costs which are calculated at 3% of the purchase price. 3. Buyers will WALK AWAY from any seller counteroffers that in any way indicate that the seller is trying
