first time buyer: Spring Has Sprung! - 04/17/09 12:40 PM
Ahhhh, finally spring has sprung! The tulips and daffodils are popping, people are out biking and working in their yards, and best of all HOME ARE SELLING!!!
The difference between this year and last is just incredible. Last year it felt like you were literally digging for buyers, this year it feels like they are sprouting from the ground like the previously mentioned tulips (can you tell I live in Holland!?). I imagine part of this is owed to the $8000 first time buyers tax credit, the incredible selection of homes, and the ridiculously low prices. I think the other part … (1 comments)

Really, it is the perfect time to be a first time home buyer! In addition to the great interest rates, there is the $7500 first time buyer tax credit. While the credit is little more than a loan from the government to the buyer, it is … (1 comments)

first time buyer: My Wedding, Honeymoon, and life! - 09/04/08 02:19 PM
It has been a while since I have posted anything on here! Thats what happens when you get wrapped up in a wedding, honeymoon, etc.
My wife, Kelly, and I were married August 1st on Windmill Island here in Holland, MI. We were lucky and had perfect weather (although very hot in a tux!). Windmill Island is already absolutely beautiful, but our caterers (Via Maria) did an awesome job turning the Celebration Pavilion into a reception even better than our dreams!
After the wedding we stayed the night at the new City Flats Hotel in downtown Holland. It is a LEED … (0 comments)

Buying your First Home?
First of all, Congrats! This is a GREAT time to buy your first home! Currently interest rates are still low but appear to be headed upward; meanwhile there are TONS of great homes on the market, combined with the lowest home prices we have seen in almost 10 years.
Here are a few things you should know:
#1 You want an agent to work for you! Sounds like a no brainer doesn't it? Well, what you may not realize is that in the State of Michigan (as well as many other states) unless you have declared on … (6 comments)
