Please remember... when visiting an Open House the agent holding the open is representing the Seller.
If you are already represented by an agent that should not be a problem as many open house agents honor that relationship. Just let them know when you arrive. HOWEVER if you do not have an agent and really would like Buyer Representation when purchasing a home you need to have a agency relationship in place before visiting.
As an Annapolis Area Realtor® who specializes in buying and selling of residential real estate I am available to represent you in the purchase of any home available for sale whether listed with my brokerage or another brokerage. None of todays homes are my listings but if they were I, like the agents holding today's opens, would be representing the Seller.
If you would like Buyer Representation when buying a home give me a call. 410-440-7839.
I will be happy to explain how it works, how I can be of service and to represent you in the purchase of your new home.
It's going to be a great year to buy a home!

Rent?? Buy?? Rent?? Buy?? Here's One Story That May Help With That Decision
 A few weeks ago I wrote a post about helping a first time homebuyer. They had high expectations of what they wanted in their first home. Nothing new there as everyone has a wish list. Yes they were tired of renting but not quite sure if they would ever be able to find a home that would beat the one they were renting.
After a few meetings and looking at homes that were available in their price range there was one that stood out. Yep it stood out like crazy. Did it have everything on their wish list. Not by a long shot but it was a good neighborhood for them, had just the right amount of room and was a dynamite price. They saw the possibilities of what it could be.
They were excited about this home but the question came up 'we are going to have to do this and do that to make it ours and all that costs money'. But then they realized that was not going to be a problem. You see the savings they were making in rent payments versus mortgage payments was a tad over $700 a month. the wheels in their new homebuyer heads started churning.
This new home that they were considering that needed some work to make their own was actually saving them $700 a month in payments. they easily made those rental payments so now they would easily have the extra money each month to start fixing up this new home the way they wanted it to be. Their are alreay plans on paper for a kitchen upgrade, new carpet or maybe hardwood floors, paint for the walls and a few other things as well. And thats because it will be theirs. And with a savings of $700 per month they will have some room to budget for the upgrades and have things done in no time. How nice is that?
Rent?? Buy?? Rent?? Buy?? We go to settlement the end of the month.
If you would like to see what is out there in homes to buy in your price range just give me a call. I would love to help you get out from renting and into homeownership with a nice savings as well. It can be done.

Annapolis Waterfront Market Report- January 2012
Annapolis is surrounded by water and offers a huge expanse of waterfront living opportunities. From shallow wetlands to deep, deep water, from condos to exquisite estates waterfront living in Annapolis is a huge part of living the Annapolis lifestyle.
Please keep in mind that this Annapolis Waterfront Market Report is for the Annapolis zip codes 21401, 21403, 21409. If you have or want to buy a waterfront home in another zip code I would be happy to do a market report for that area as well. Just let me know.
Waterfront home sales decreased by 25% over the previous months sales and increased by 20% over January 2011 sales. As for sales price.... low and high sale prices can fluctuate dramatically due to waterfront homes being unique to themselves. One large sale or even one low sale can send the numbers askew so I will not be giving sale figures on price month over month or year over year.
The following report is for the Annapolis zip codes 21401, 21403, 21409
117 # of Active Waterfront Homes For Sale as of this report
6 # of Sold Waterfront Homes in the month of January
Of the 6 that Sold in January
$550,000 was the Low Sales Price
$1,099,000 was the High Sales Price
$816,583 was the Average Sales Price
List Price to Sale Price Ratio
87.94% Average
Average Days on Market
162
There are currently 19 waterfront homes under contract.
There were 18 waterfront homes withdrawn from the market in December
19.5- # of months supply given current inventory against solds.

Each waterfront home is unique to itself and the area and water it is on. The above report is an overall statistical reading from the Multiple List (MRIS). For a detailed report targeted to your particular interest in buying or selling a waterfront home give me a call.
If your home is currently listed for sale this market report is in no way a solicitation of that listing

Buying Your First Home Is A Beginning in Homeownership Not Necessarily An End
Today was spent showing property to a sweet newly married couple on a very tight budget. They so want to buy a home and stop paying rent. After a couple conversations about paring down their wish list and opening their eyes to possibilities of what could be a perfect first home we ventured out.
The day was beautiful. They were so excited and as we visited each home I could tell they were looking at each one as a beginning in home-ownership and not an end. Yes, I could see they truly understood what I had been trying to tell them.
We all start somewhere in home-ownership. And as the years pass and we look back at that first home it has a special place in our home-ownership journey. It mey not have been the biggest, and it probably wasn't the fanciest but it was where we started and grew. We love it for what it was/is...our first home.
Tonight she texted me and they really, really like one home a lot. I will be checking out some answers on a few items and if all is well we will move forward with an offer.
It is such an exciting time when a first time home buyer understands that
Buying Your First Home is a beginning in home-ownership and not necessarily an end.
