first time homebuyer: We're Moving on Up - 04/26/09 04:53 PM
Recently, we've had a few homeowners ask if now is a good time to move up into a larger home.  Our answer is a resounding "YES!" and here's why:
House prices in Newtown have come down a total of 15.11% in 2007 and 2008. Mortgage rates are still at historically low rates Many sellers need to get their homes sold and there are definately "deals" out there There are short sales available for sale, as well as pre-foreclosure and foreclosure properties. Contrary to what you hear on the news, people CAN get mortgages and homes are beginning to sell again. If … (5 comments)

first time homebuyer: Marriage, Divorce and Buying a Home - 12/23/08 05:14 PM
When Bob and I first started our real estate careers, older Realtors in our office gave us loads of advice.  The one piece of advice that sticks in both our minds is about the three most stressful things in life:
Getting Married Getting a Divorce Buying a House I've always thought there was quite a bit of truth to this as I have personally experienced #1 and #3.  The stress of getting everything perfect and not forgetting someone or something when we got married just about put me over the edge.  I remember when I had to order the flowers with my raging fever and ear infection, I … (1 comments)
