Sell my lots in Oconomowoc,Wisconsin. Priced at only $74,900. Motivated Broker and Seller.

Tom Braatz, Waukesha County Real Estate,WI (Re/Max Realty Center 262-377-1459) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:07:44 -0600

Lot 1 and Lot 2 are now ready to be purchased, and I will have Lot 3 and lot 4 ready soon. The first two lots are each 3/4 acre, abut the retaining pond, and best of all they can have outbuildings. The lots right across the street are $105,000 and $110,000 and can not have outbuildings. All the grading, the engineering, erosion and drainage work is in, and we seeded the lots as well. Why are these magnificent lots such a bargain? That is easy; the investments that we go into are waiting and now you can really benefit. I have attached a number of pictures and I have a complete file from everything from the county, plats, CSMs, and all my records. Call me at 262-377-1459 or email me at tom@tombraatz.com. In Waukesha County I had comps from the city of Oconomowoc far more expensive. These are nicer, bigger, can have out buildings, and the setting is about 5 minutes north of Oconomowoc in the town of Oconomowoc. If you are wanting to buy a lot and thought you could not find a deal like this here is your opportunity in the Waukesha County Real estate market in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin.

Wishing you a productive day, and see you at closing!

"Governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed... Whenever government becomes destructive to life, liberty, or property [i.e., the pursuit of happiness], it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it... It is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security."

Pete Sessions Compares Being Female to Being a Smoker

Terry Haugen STAGE it RIGHT! 321-956-2495 (Stage it Right!) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 16:01:56 -0600

Despite repeated campaign promises to always be in the District on weekends, Pete Sessions is working overtime today to kill health care reform.

His latest outburst on the House floor drew "a burst of chatter" in the room, kind of like it does in bi-partisan settings here at home when Sessions gets stuck for an answer and says the first thing that comes to mind, usually a tangent about "socialism" or "Nancy Pelosi."

In his latest gaffe, Pete Sessions defended the insurance industry's practice of charging higher rates to women, comparing the practice to charging higher rates for smokers.

So, in Pete's mind, being a woman is just like being a smoker--being female just a destructive habit some people pick up that the rest of us shouldn't pay for.

A Real Estate Agent Must be Present to Open the Lock Box

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:58:26 -0600

I've chosen to re-blog this because it is an important topic to all home buyers. The question of "can you provide me access to this house without you being here?" gets asked a lot and the simple answer is NO.

A real estate agent should ever give you a code to see the house by yourself...ever.

A good agent will do everything in their power to accomodate their buyers showing time requests...move their schedule around when they can and/or provide you with all times they are available to see if one works for you. Ultimately, they need to be there with you for many reasons, but the one that counts most is to ensure you are properly represented.

Remember, it is our professional license, our reputation with our peers/clients/brokers and possible fines (from multiple entities) on the line.

Please know that it just isn't worth it...not for you (the consumer) or us ...

Via Ed & Cindy Knight (Realty Executives e-Group):

A real estate agent Must be present to open the lock box. So, if your agent is giving you the lock box code because they are to busy or to lazy to show you the home, than I suggest you find another one. Why? Because they are actually placing you at risk of trespassing. You may not know this but as a member of the local MLS when we list a home we sign a contract with the seller that states "Broker, broker's representatives, agents and sub-agents are hereby granted access to the property". No where does it say that the buyer has permission to enter the home - so by doing so you may be trespassing.

It seems this is becoming an epidemic and not just in Macomb County. In fact, this exact topic was addressed this month in the MAR Publication legal section. Then yesterday we received a call from a buyer asking for the lock box code on one of our listings. When we told him "a real estate agent agent must be present to open the lock box". He stated "the broker down the street gave me the code with out coming to the home". Really? Well today I sent off an e-mail to that broker stating that this is not only unprofessional but it is placing these buyers at risk not to mention the sellers they represent in the event something happens. The broker did contact me and said this was not acceptable practice and that he would look into it.

Our MLS listing contract also states "Owner(s) shall indemnify and hold Broker, Broker's representatives, agents and sub-agents and cooperating broker harmless from any and all liability for any reason as a result of injury to persons or damage or loss to property arising out of the showing". But does that protect you? What happens if no agent is present and something comes up missing, is damaged or if someone gets hurt? If you are not with an agent where does that leave you??? Can you then be held liable for damages?

Over the past few months several of our agents have come back with stories...

They have found buyers wondering around in the home without an agent, that gained access via a lock box code.

One of our agents would not allow a buyer in a home because their agent was not present. The buyer got right in her face and said "Fine I'll just wait till you leave and said some choice words"

Ed would not allow a buyer in the home he was showing only to find the same buyer inside the next home he was showing because the agent gave him the lock box codes.

We have even had buyers tell us that their previous agent just gave them the lock box to view homes on their own. These buyers were going in flooded basements, mold filled homes and even walking around with flash lights in the dark.

One buyer we know of viewed the home himself, had the agent write the offer and closed without the agent ever viewing the home

Sorry to say folks these agents are not working in your best interests. If they are to busy to take the time to show you homes how will they handle the offer and the closing? How can they give you professional advice on the market and the home? You may want to check and see if they are representing you or the seller. Better yet if you decide to sell with them in the future will they allow buyers access to Your home too without being present??

While preparing for this post I did some checking and obviously the public agrees a real estate agent agent must be present to open the lock box - here's one from Trulia and Yahoo. However, there was also a blog where this guy actually gave investors step by step directions on how to gain access to bank owned homes without a REALTOR®. Shame on the agents that gave him the codes.

What do you think? Is this okay or is it Trespassing?

The ActiveRain Convention Station: Flying into San Diego?

Jim Frimmer, San Diego Mission Valley Realtor (Century 21 Award) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:58:11 -0600

If you enjoy flying, and you're flying into San Diego for the 2009 National Association of Realtors Convention (or any other time, too), sit on the left side of the plane in a window seat. You won't be disappointed.

Personally I like the night flights, but the day flights won't disappoint either.

If you don't like flying, sit on the right side of the plane in a non-window seat, and maybe take your eyeshades with you, or just pull the airplane window shade down and close your eyes. That's about all I can do for you.

And don't worry. Even though it looks like you're flying in between skyscrapers at a couple of hundred miles per hour, San Diego International Airport continually ranks among the safest in the nation. At least that's what they tell me.

**********

If you're looking for a great condominium in Mission Valley,
the heart and soul of San Diego, please give me a call.

I'm available 24/7, so feel free to contact me by phone or email.

Mega Leases in Los Angeles

Stewart Penn - Los Angeles Condo Specialist (Penn Properties ) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:57:48 -0600

Leasing a Luxury House or Condo is an interesting job, especially when one considers the monthly rentals achieved.

Originally listed at $15,000 per month in this full-service 24-story condo tower at The Remington at 10727 Wilshire Blvd, a 2-Bed 3-Bath condo measuring 3500 sq ft recently leased for $12,000 per month. The fully furnished unit includes the services of a house-keeper twice a week. (Left Pic)

How about a 3000 sq ft 3-Bed 2.5-Bath condo with an awesome view overlooking Santa Monica Beach which recently leased for $10,000 per month? (Right Pic - View from balcony)

Renting a beach house in Santa Monica or Malibu can be a mind-blowing experience at $30,000, $45,000 or even $80,000 per month!

(Pics below) This 5-Bed 4-Bath house rented for $30,000 a month ($60,000 security deposit). The MLS Listing suggests you can "drift off to sleep with waves hitting the sand"..... unless of course you're thinking of the $30K it's costing you each month!

(The property above was Listed by Coldwell Banker - Brentwood and Leased out by Hilton & Hyland)

Home Prices In Glenmoor

TriCity Real Estate Brokers, Inc. — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:57:24 -0600

Homes for sale in Glenmoor are showing changes in pricing, and this area has always been one of the most desired places to live in Fremont CA that have home values from 500k up to over 1 million.

I like the area too, but I happen to live in the Parkmont area of Fremont. Glenmoor homes for sale have also felt the effect of the price drop. Homes sales since 2007 have dropped on ave

rage of 35%. Some areas only fell 30%. That would be Glenmoor. But recently there has been an increase of about 5% take a look at this chart. It's hard to see, but it shows that over the last 180 days, home prices in Glenmoor increased by about 5%.

Other areas hit by the 30% instead of 35% are:

Parkmont
Niles
Mission San Jose
Indian Hills

They are recovering at the moment. Let's see. Next blog post I will post the supply and demand levels over the last 90 days. It is very interesting.

The "Blair REALTOR" Project

Alright, before I get started, I'll admit I have too much excess time on my hand this afternoon...or should I say I am not making the most of it. It is a lazy Sunday afternoon and I started playing with my blog, looking for goodies to post.

This next video reminded me of the Blair Witch Project - except I thing the budget might have been a little bit higher here...

Take a couple of minutes and enjoy this nonsense and then I want you to forward this to a REALTOR that it reminded you of...I know there is at least one...

Make your Greenwood IN Short Sale go Smoother!

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:53:39 -0600

We are at that time of year where if you have vacated your property and you have it listed with your agent, Greenwood Short Sale or not, if it is vacant, you should talk to your Real Estate Agent about winterizing your property.

Ask your agent if they know of a plumber who can cut a break on getting your property winterized. Make sure they are an experienced plumber!

About the Author: The above info regarding Make your Greenwood IN Short Sale go Smoother was provided by: Heather Fitzgerald, who has over 15 years of experience in real estate, title insurance, and lending that can be put to work for you.

Help Wanted - Just Don't Want this Guy!

Sun, 08 Nov 2009 15:43:37 -0600

I find myself looking to hire a buyers agent for the team. When an opening occurs it is necessary to look hard at the person I want to bring into the fold. What do I want them to do better than the person they are replacing? What skills should I require? Therm are a thousand questions and points that I will have to look at in determining just who is the right fit for my business.

Finding the right person is of course very important and knowing what I am looking for is critical. What I have found to be even more importnt is to know what I don't want...

Watch this short video and you'll agree with me that this is not what I am looking for...
