Foreclosures

Thu, 12 Feb 2009 16:43:39 -0800

Will be hiring a bus to tour foreclosures in our area of Fairafield County.(Danbury, Brookfield, Bethel, New Fairfield, etc.) As of today I eard the interest rate is 4 1/2%. Could that be true? The foreclosures seem to be in the 150,000 to 300,000 price range. Since they announced a $7,500 payment for first time homebuyers, it should be a stimulus to purchase. I will be waiting....

Going into financial danger? We can help!

I am currently working with several foreclosures. Sellers sometimes are slow to admit that they are going into foreclosure. It is a devastating experience to lose ones home. I always try to make the experience a little less horrible. Once they admit to the problem, it becomes easier. I think there should be a place where you can go to find empathy and where you are able to relate to others who are in the same predicament or even on an individual basis. We have an attorney who is an expert in the field and would be happy to meet with you with you. If you are coming to that uncomfortable position, please all us, we can help!

Don't believe what you hear about the real estate market in the Danbury area. We are selling properties right and left. Our close proximity to New York City has historically allowed us to hold our head above water. The banks do have money and are loaning out to those who qualify. The interest rate is the lowest it has been in many years, and there is plenty of inventory.

We have been very successful in selling our own listings. Our office has sold more listings in 2008 than any of the competition. Our most recent personal sales have been a luxury townhome at Woodland Hills. It is one of the few that have sold in that complex in the last quarter. Also a townhome at North Ridge and a colonial farm house in Southern New Milford. We also sold a lake home in New Milford and a lovely starter home in Danbury. Our buyers include : investors, first-time home-buyers and relocating employees in and out of the greater Danbury area.

We are approved Cartus agents, who specialize in corporate relocation and management of properties once the employee has vacated the premises. Our combined real estate experience of 50 years has taught us to never leave a stone unturned and to follow through to the very end. Our skills from contact to closing includes finding your home, negotiating the sale, and the recommendations of attorneys, building inspectors, insurance agents and financial institutions. We have worked with these professionals for many years and through the process of elimination, have selected the best of the group.

For the best in service, call the Blessey/Foley team at William Pitt Sothebys on 112 Federal Road in Danbury. Our numbers are: 203-797-1216, ext. 316 & 324 or on our cells at 203-482-5812 & 203-733-5891. We look forward to hearing from you

Our success in 2008
