salisbury real estate: Cost Vs. Price: Information Agents and Buyers should consider - 11/18/10 02:51 AM
 So we all are aware of the fact that interest rates are low right? So why aren't more people buying?? I think this is in part to the simple fact that your average consumer does not look at or understand the difference of savings these lower interest rates provide. Most people are terrified that prices are going to continue to drop. I know it is hard to compare the two, but when people go purchase a new car you never hear them saying "I'm scared to buy this car because it is going to lose value". Cars are one of the … (0 comments)

salisbury real estate: Is now a good time to buy?? Information all agents and buyers should know!! - 11/03/10 12:16 PM
 I have been asked this question a lot recently over and over. Most consumers tell me that they are unsure if now is a good time to buy real estate of not. I think there hasn't been a better time in history to buy real estate, but what do I know?? With that in regard I have some factual information for both consumers and agents to support why I think there has never been a better time to buy, if you can find something affordable to you. Buying a house to simply be "house poor" is not a good financial decision.First … (0 comments)

salisbury real estate: Wicomico County housing report August 2009/2010 - 10/05/10 06:44 AM
It seems as though every time you turn on the news or open the paper there is some big news story as to how bad the housing market is doing. Granted there are some regions in the United States that have been hit extremely hard, locally in the Salisbury/Wicomico County area, the numbers tell a different story. The Salisbury area as a whole did have some major appreciation, but not as much as some other comparable markets, so the downside has not been as much as comparable markets. Although we are still out of what is considered a normal market, our … (0 comments)

salisbury real estate: The short sale: a viable option to avoid foreclosure. - 09/21/10 03:21 AM
The short sale: a viable option to avoid foreclosure.
It's likely you've heard the term "short sale" thrown around quite a bit. But what, exactly, is a short sale?
A short sale is when a bank agrees to accept less than the total amount owed on a mortgage to avoid having to foreclose on the property. This is not a new practice; banks have been doing short sales for years. Only recently, due to the current state of the housing market, has this process become a part of the public consciousness. The short sale, in almost every situation where a homeowner … (2 comments)

salisbury real estate: Changes in Short sales Consumers and Agents may not be Aware of. - 09/01/10 03:29 AM
I have recently run into several sellers recently all over the eastern shore of Maryland, Delaware and Virginia that have told me they didn't know that a short sale was an option for them. They thought they wouldn't qualify, or they would be denied for whatever reason. I found this to be quite astounding as now lenders are sending "short sale" letters out, and short sales are in  media tv, newspaper etc.. I was starting to think that the short sale was becoming a house hold name for the consumer. The reality is that it really isn't. Most sellers if they … (0 comments)

salisbury real estate: Why investing in Salisbury Real Estate is A Good Idea. - 08/06/10 04:19 AM
Why investing in Salisbury Real Estate is A Good Idea.
I get asked this question a lot every day "Should I buy a home in Salisbury right now", my answer: Absolutely!!! The Salisbury area like all markets has been hit with the downturn in real estate. We have not been hit as hard as a lot of markets, but we did see a significant decline in prices. When prices go down, this is the best time to buy!! For a First time buyer this is a perfect time, or for the investor as well. Prices are down and interest rates are … (0 comments)

salisbury real estate: Help your buyers narrow their search and make a informed decision. - 02/17/10 09:20 AM
As real estate agents I think sometimes we can forget what are job is, and can easily become let our costumers turn us into uninformed tour guides. Have you been a tour guide in the past? Have you shown buyers 10, 20, 50 homes, only to get to the end and find that the buyers can't even remember the first house they saw? There is another approach you can take to give your buyers a better experience, and make your life much easier.
As an agent, you certainly have to show buyers whatever houses they want to see, but instead of … (3 comments)

salisbury real estate: Facebook, Twitter, Blogger, LinkedIn, Active Rain… Social media can be overwhelming but don’t fear! - 02/05/10 02:01 AM
Recently, in the middle of teaching a foreclosure seminar, I gave a brief moment to the importance of social media in growing your presence and business as a real estate agent. The response I got from most of the agents was that they simply don’t know where or how to start. I couldn’t believe it; they have no clue about how to even begin the process of social marketing, and don’t know where to turn to find out. This Coupled with the fact that a lot of agents do not understand the importance, or potential return on investment of social media, … (3 comments)
