Finally after years of waiting Baumgarts has opened it's Nyack location. I have been going to the Englewood resturant for over 20 years so this is particuarly good news for me.

nyack land for sale: Nyack Solves Water Problem - 06/24/11 11:53 PM
The last three days has been stressful for Nyack's 15,000 water customers. They were told not to drink, brush their teeth, or use the water from the tap for cooking or washing dishes. They were also told to get rid of ice cubes. It was found that the water contained higher than acceptable levels of coliform bacteria. Well we have now been given the green light to use the tap water again. Kudos to our elected officials for fixing the problem in such a short amount of time. Lugging the bottled water was not fun.

Gracious Living On The River In Nyack

 A very wise person once stated, "there are locations and there are locations. My new listing at the Clermont in Nyack is the ultimate riverfront location. The experience begins as you enter through the private entrance and you are greeted by the gentle sounds of the Hudson lapping against the sides of the pier. There are Hudson River views from every room, and this apartment is fully and tastefully renovated. There is a large deck on the river, private boat slip, pool, and gym on the premises. In my mind this is one … (2 comments)

nyack land for sale: South Nyack Residents Talk "Lid" - 05/26/11 11:15 PM
 
South Nyack residents met with planners and elected officials at the Orangetown Fire Company No.1 firehouse to discuss the possibility of reconnecting the two sections of South Nyack that were created with the construction of the Tappan Zee Bridge in the 1950's. They all saw the possibilty of creating a type of "lid" over the bridge in the South Nyack area that would be turned into a green space with magnificent views of the Hudson River. THey are hoping that the Thruway Authority will see this as a unique opportunity to correct a wrong that was done when the bridge was built. - … (0 comments)

Yes Sunday was another crazy Sunday in my realtor life. Absolutely  knew I had better get to the gym to keep my energy levels up. From there I did an open house at my Kuyper listing in Upper Nyack where I met some interesting people and possible future buyers. My youngest daughter was performing in the strings concert at Nyack High School at three. That was definitely the high point of my day, although the feast of barbequed salmon, corn, rice and beans, and broccoli was a close second. Today is all about styling my new listing on Piermont Ave in … (0 comments)

nyack land for sale: Allergies In Rockland County - 05/09/11 11:31 PM
I know we hear this every year, but this seems to be the worst allergy season that I can remember in Nyack. My youngest daughter is suffering terribly. I was luck enough to get her in to our allergy doctor yesterday. He didn't take his lunch so he could see her. We were given the usual advice to stay indoors as much as possible, keep the windows shut, and limit physical activity as this starts her coughing. Non drowsy Claritin also seems to be helping. Any advice would be grately appreciated, or if you just want to commiserate that's fine too.

nyack land for sale: Decisions In Nyack Regarding Offers - 05/07/11 02:14 PM
Deciding which offer to accept on your home is a bit like deciding when it is time to sell a stock. No one has a crystal ball, but here are a few thoughts that may help. Make sure your buyer is prequalified. You don't want to go through the whole process and find out the financing isn't there. The urgency of your move may dictate what offer you accept. If the current market has put your home underwater this is not the time to sell. What is the market climate at the moment? Do you think other offers will come or … (0 comments)

nyack land for sale: Home Sales Up 15% in December - 01/30/10 09:01 AM
Home Sales Up 15% in December, National Association of Realtors Reports They Plummeted.

Home Sales rose 15%  in December compared to last December, which is the standard by which professionals track the housing market. Any comparison of December to November is useless because home sales ALWAYS go down in December. People avoid closing and moving during the holidays every year.NAR knows this, so why would they report that 'Home Sales Plummet 16.7% in December" ? They want the world to believe that government intervention in the form of the Home Buyer Tax Credit is the reason people are buying houses. … (1 comments)

The Refinance Program The Refinance Program is aimed at homeowners who are current on their mortgage, but simply need to refinance a home that has gone down in value since they purchased it.
