  If a lockbox could talk – they would probably have a lot to say for themselves.  They know that they are more than just a pretty face adorning your front door.  They understand that most sellers  don’t fully appreciate them, but they don’t mind.  They know that if you understood what they do -y...

  About 10 days ago I had about an hour to spare – so I grabbed the camera and spent some quality time on the Yonkers Waterfront.  After writing about the Science Barge and my new feathered friends, I thought it was time to share the waterfront photos.  The area is the southernmost  part of the R...

Hi everyone.  I've blogged about this topic before, but now I would like to seek the opinions of the AR community at large.  Most of us make a living as real estate professionals - so you are the perfect people to ask about the impact of a large building project on a small local community. Below ...

Ever have a situation where the listing contract signing took longer than the actual sale? Had we been in a more active market that could easily have happened to me.  I was listing a home for an estate with two executors.  Both were seniors and neither had any use for such things as Fax machines,...

Last Friday, I made a few new friends.  Not of the human variety – my new pals had feathers and seemed to enjoy  spending their time time soaring above the Hudson River near the Yonkers NY waterfront. I don’t spend that much time down there so I was surprised at the number of seagulls that  had ...

Sometimes you learn about something new when you don’t expect to. I was at the Yonkers Waterfront between appointments the other day – and enjoying the blazing hot sunshine.  I don’t get to this location all that often so I hadn’t noticed “The Science Barge” before. The Science Barge  is a sustai...

The other day I was in Tarrytown in the late afternoon  and as I was  looking up at at the Tappan Zee Bridge I  saw the long snaking trail of cars and trucks at a dead standstill.  I could  feel their misery.  They were on a bridge that spans about 3 miles traveling so slowly that might as well ...

One of the nice things about living in Westchester NY is that every town and village  has its own events and unique character that all Westchester residents can enjoy.  Larchmont NY Homes are very popular because of all that the village has to offer.     This summer Larchmont’s Memorial Park is ...

White Plains NY has often been referred to as “the city in the park”.  It has a long tradition of trying to maintain green spaces even when pressure from developers would turn the entire downtown into a solid block  of concrete, brick, mortar, steel and glass.  Thanks to activist citizens, the g...
