princeton real estate sellers: Warning: Truth Could Be Dangerous To Agents' Business - 01/30/09 10:46 AM
Is telling the truth in real estate all it's cracked up to be? Remember the classic scene from "A few Good Men"  when Jack Nicholson  (as  Col. Jessep) shouts at Tom Cruise( as Kaffee ) "You can’t handle the truth!  " in response to Kaffe's  request :"I want the truth! ".  Are real estate sellers now similar to Kaffe? They want the truth but "They can't handle it!!".To be clear: I completely reject the warning of this post title. l will continue to tell the truth, no matter what. And I am learning valuable lessons from this experience.I recently "lost" several … (27 comments)

princeton real estate sellers: Princeton New Jersey Home Sellers - What Should You Do During The Summer? - 07/17/08 03:47 PM
Do You Want To Be A Successful Princeton Home Seller?
 
How do you get to the finish line if you are selling your Princeton home now?  What should you do if you are considering selling now, but didn't start the process yet? While Princeton real estate does not take breaks for vacation, the sales activity slows down in the summer, and even more so now with the credit and banking problems and other economic uncertainties. In this generally slow New Jersey real estate period there are home sellers in Princeton who are already in the market selling their home, or … (2 comments)

princeton real estate sellers: Princeton Real Estate - Busy Times for Buyers and Sellers - 04/07/08 09:17 PM
The good news for the Princeton real estate buyers is that there is a lot of choice and the prices for some properties have come  down significantly. I have been showing a lot of houses in the last several weeks. This is the an excuse reason for having not written as much for the Princeton Real Estate blog as I usually do.Here is a quick look at my observations this week.  For my international buyers we were looking at some spectacular Princeton homes for sale in the price range of over $3.5mln. Some of the houses we saw have been on … (2 comments)

princeton real estate sellers: Princeton Real Estate -Do I Need An Agent To Buy Or Sell A House? - 03/31/08 09:07 PM
Do I need a real estate agent to sell or buy real estate in Princeton? This is the gist of the questions coming to my blog in the last several weeks. I covered this subject before, but there were so many variations on this question, that I thought it may warrant re-visiting it again. This time I will focus on one issue: representation. All of this discussion applies to the state of New Jersey and laws may be different in other states.Several things happened last week, that made me realize representation is not understood by many consumers. It's not surprising: the … (6 comments)

princeton real estate sellers: Who Needs Honesty And Trust In Real Estate - 03/30/08 07:15 AM
The word "trust" is the second most overused word in real estate. "Honesty" - is the first one. These words are bantered around the Internet so much, people probably do not pay much attention to them. Nevertheless, misusing them in a real estate blog could lead to problems. Misusing them on a multiple blogger platform could lead to even more problems.The goal of most real estate bloggers is business - i.e. demonstrating their expertise  and personality to the blog readers, i.e home buyers and sellers. The idea is that these readers will be so impressed, they would want to hire the … (28 comments)

princeton real estate sellers: Princeton Real Estate - Is Honesty Required In Real Estate - 03/22/08 11:58 AM
Honesty and  trust are the most overused words in real estate. Look at the real estate agents sites and you will see declarations of honesty  and trust somewhere real soon. Read the comments on Active Rain, or even Wall street Journal and you will find, as quickly, consumers  accusing real estate agents of dishonesty and general mistrust for the profession. I usually write about real estate in the greater Princeton NJ, but this issue seems applicable to many places in the country.It was with great surprise I found consumers discussing their dishonesty on the Wall Street Journal blog.
In the WSJ post … (14 comments)

princeton real estate sellers: Princeton Real Estate - Three New Things That Sell Houses Now - 03/20/08 09:33 AM
Even babies in this country know the  three L's of real estate; location, location, location.  There is news for the Princeton real estate  buyers and sellers: I am seeing the old adage being replaced with the new phenomenon. The three  P's are the new three L's. This post can probably be the shortest yet, as this pretty much sums it up. My data is anecdotal (unlike the rest of this blog), so I would understand if my graduate school professors may not want to continue reading.In the 3d week of March, buyers and sellers need to think about their strategy going … (10 comments)
