realtor: When We Work Together We All Benefit: Open Houses in Western MA on Facebook! - 04/22/10 08:23 PM
My good friend and business partner, Diane Guercio, presented a great community page idea this week that she was sweet enough to let me borrow.
She created a facebook community page, Open Houses in Central MA with the idea that all area agents, home sellers and buyers would be able to find the week's open house information in one spot on the most heavily trafficed site: Facebook.
I saw it and thought, "Brilliant!".  After garnering her permission to borrow her idea I launched Open Houses in Western MA. 
 

I have already invited many real estate professionals that I know … (1 comments)

realtor: The Real Estate For Sale Sign of The Future - 03/23/10 10:36 PM
Real estate is said to be the second oldest profession in the world (no jokes please) and for much of its history the standard operating procedure didn’t change a whole lot.
When I began my real estate career in 1988 (again, hold the humor) there was no internet. We collected a book of postage stamp sized, grainy, black & white photographs on crappy newsprint paper every two weeks: that was the multiple listing book. You carried that book with you to meet buyers and sellers and tried to fathom which properties might be of interest from these lackluster and teeny tiny … (3 comments)

realtor: How is the real estate market in Western Massachusetts? - 03/02/10 12:30 PM
"Hey, how's the market lately?"

As a real estate agent in Westfield, Western Massachusetts, I get that question a lot.  My answer changes, but lately the answer has been, "it is good!" to which I get a lot of surprised responses.
Well, I wouldn't blow smoke...I have proof that Western Massachusetts real estate is improving!

I recently did a video explaining the home buyer tax credits and why they make it such an ideal time to buy a home in Western Massachusetts. Home sellers, you can benefit from this tax credit, too!

Western Massachusetts Repeat Home Buyers: If you are considering making a move to reap the reward of the $6,500 tax credit, working with me can raise your credit up to $7,100! The federal housing tax credit guidelines for existing home owners allows for up to $6,500 for buyers who are under contract to purchase by April 31, 2010 and who close on the property prior to July 1, 2010.
What is the definition of a move-up or repeat home buyer? The law defines a tax credit qualified move-up home buyer (“long-time resident”) as a person who has owned and resided … (0 comments)

realtor: Tick Tock Tick Tock the Home Buyer Tax Credit is on the Clock! - 01/26/10 11:59 AM
APRIL 30, 2010
That is when the home buyer tax credit expires.  No kidding.  No rumors of extensions.
GONE.
If you are a first time homebuyer, you must close on your new home by April 30, 2010 to collect up to $8,000 in tax benefits.
Other buyers who may qualify for the "Step Up" Home buyer credit must be in contract by April 30, 2010 with a closing no later than July 1, 2010 to collect up to $6,500.  My blog post on the tax credit extension has a complete guideline for your review.
