Foreclosure and the short sale

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Sat, 10 May 2008 10:58:59 -0500

What I have seen is that the owners of a home with a financial problem wait too long to get a real estate professional involved.Every lender today wants to work something out with the owners before it goes into pre -foreclosure. However once the owners decide to sell they need to get a prefessional involved to get it priced correctly and moved quickly in todays ever changing marketplace.

Eminent case in NJ goes in favor of property owner

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 13:48:52 -0500

Big win for property owners in New Jersey. The rights of property owners were upheld by the New Jersey Supreme court this month. This was a critical case to dictate the future of many pending and potential cases in other parts of New Jersey. I know right in Mercer County alone that several municipalities were waiting for the outcome of this case to see how they would prepare to move forward in their own town.Below is a reprint from MCAR and a link to all the details. As always I'm here to help ChrisHill@remax.net

Eminent Domain Case Rules in Favor of Property Owner

The New Jersey Supreme Court issued a ruling on June 13, 2007 involving the use of eminent domain, or the government taking of property for redevelopment. The Gloucester County borough of Paulsboro sought to claim property owner George Gallenthin's 43 acres of wetlands and 20 acres of farmland through eminent domain to develop a privately operated, 160-acre deepwater port on the Delaware River.

The court considered previous cases, legislation, and other states' laws to evaluate the historical and evolving definition of "blight." The court found that Paulsboro's interpretation, which would equate "blighted areas" to "areas that are not operated in an optimal manner," cannot be reconciled with the NJ Constitution. The court ruled in favor of Gallenthin and stated that property that is "underutilized" does not qualify as "blighted." Read the full opinion at http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?t=x4l6ebcab.0.vffbfbcab.6nzyc7n6.1648&ts=S0250&p=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.judiciary.state.nj.us%2Fopinions%2Fsupreme%2FA-51-06.pdf.

This case reinforces NJAR®'s position against the use of eminent domain abuse.

Thats Typical

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 09:01:55 -0500

Here is a a funny one sent to me from my friend tony ...............

Two guys, one old and one young, are pushing their carts around Home Depot
when they collide.

The old guy says to the young guy, "Sorry about that. I'm looking for my
wife, and I guess I wasn't paying attention to where I was going.

"The young guy says, "That's OK. It's a coincidence. I'm looking for my
wife, too. I can't find her and I'm getting a little desperate."

The old guy says, "Well, maybe we can help each other. What does your wife
look like?"

The young guy says, "Well, she is 24 yrs old, tall, with blonde hair, blue
eyes, long legs, big boobs, and she's wearing tight white shorts, a halter
top and no bra. What does your wife look like?"

The old guy says, "Doesn't matter, let's look for yours."

have a great day !!!

Survey of Luxury Housing Market trends

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Fri, 08 Jun 2007 13:33:15 -0500

New article here on buyers trends in the 2007 Luxury home market. This is a must read for both agents dealing in luxury homes as well as consumers who are in the market today. dealing with a Luxury home purchaser in very different and unique as when compared to buyers in the normal price ranges. I hope all readers find the information useful. As always I'm here to help chrishill@remax.net

2007 Survey of Luxury Housing Market Trends Released

(PRWEB) The Luxury Home Council today released the results of The 2007 Membership Survey of Luxury Housing Market Trends. The survey's findings provide revealing insight into the trends of the luxury home market. Highlights from the report include:

The largest percentage of luxury home buyers falls into the 40-50 age group (48%) followed closely by the 50-65 age group (44%). These affluent buyers are what marketing experts describe as the "Baby Boomer" market, a 78 million strong segment of the population that has reached its peak earning years and is now benefiting from a rising stock market and historically high home prices.
The most common occupation of luxury home buyers is that of an entrepreneur (51%), followed by large business executive (46%) or medical doctor (24%).
The number one service affluent home buyers are interested in receiving from their luxury home specialist is help in finding a home (86%) followed by help in managing the transaction (56%) and expert counsel during a negation (43%).
The typical luxury home buyer makes a large cash investment in their home purchase amounting to over a third of the overall purchase price. In many metro markets this would exceed a quarter of a million dollars. This compares to the median amount financed by all buyers in 2006 of 91% of the purchase price.
The average luxury home buyer spends 11 weeks looking for a home and views 12 homes.
Luxury home buyers on average search for homes consisting of at least 3,500-4,000 square feet, with 4-5 bedrooms and 3-4 bathrooms.
When selecting a home to purchase luxury home buyers often search for a home that will provide a lifestyle, not just a place to live. The most popular amenities include gourmet kitchens (95%), master bedroom suites (86%), specialty construction items (66%), high end appliance packages (64%), home office suites (58%) and home theater rooms (55%).
By far the vast majority of luxury home buyers active in the market today are best described as "new money". This means that they are not merely living off the successes of past generations. This data is further supported by a report from research firm TNS which reports that the number of millionaires in the US has reached an all time high of 9.3 million households as of mid-2006.
The average listing price for luxury homes is nearly $900,000 dollars, or over four times more than the median price of all US Homes as of May 15, 2007 ($212,300).

Add a Meez figure to your web blog

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 15:20:34 -0500

Ok,ok after seeing several of these cool characters on various web blogs here on I did a quickie Rain blog search under MEEZ and I found great blogs to use as a reference point. In particular I used JOANNE HANSON's blog Making a meez is lots of fun! in addition I found helpful tips from Susan Milner and her entry labeled Your Real Estate Avatar . I enjoyed her take on our alter egos ( do we have egos?) As I kept looking around I previewed Thomas Phillips and saw how He was ok with the correct no hair look is his entry Make Your Meez . So ok, I have done my first MEEZ FIGURE of myself, I put myself in front of a nice listing, dressed the way I WISH I could dress everyday to sell Real Estate. I also placed my cellphone glued to my ear. Now I was not able to also add my car and additional props into the show,but I'm working on it !!

And with this post I may be hitting 30,000 points.....not that that matters LOL

"Just Do It " and your Stress level

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 10:33:16 -0500

Hello out there in Internet " Blog Land" Today a quick mention on what I believe is the biggest problem facing most of us today. No its not " Global Warming" its your personal STRESS level. What have you done for yourself today to keep your stress level intact or " under control" if thats possible. Taken a walk, a quick step outside for some deep breaths of fresh air ? How about a 10 minute break to read a little bit. I find that quotes,comments or other little statements help me in the day to day grind that we ALL deal with everyday. Here are two that seem to go together for me,both from R.Flint who I have heard speak over the years. As always I here to help, chrishill@remax.net

"Just Do It" is a dangerous thought if you are not prepared.

If you "just do it" and you are not prepared, you have just done it. The result will be you having to do it all over again.

When your stress level increases, check your pace; you are moving too fast.

If you can't manage your day, your day will manage you. When your day is managing you, your stress level will increase.

...........these two really work together. I used to have a boss who, if you didn't "appear" to be working He would say "JUST DO SOMETHING,EVEN IF IT'S WRONG !" I don't really think that's the way to go anymore in our always moving, very hectic pace of live. So stop for a second, get prepared and get "something done" even if it's a small thing. That way you can move forward with,hopefully, a little less stress.

More great quotes to help your day

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 09:31:39 -0500

Here is a follow up quote, also from Richard Flint, about continuing to move forward. I find motivational quotes helpful from time to time, to regain focus, remind you what you are or should be doing. Also to help you to be thankful for what you have.

If you wake up still thinking about yesterday, you are stuck.

When there is still stuff to complete and no time or room to complete it, you will be challenged with where to start and what to start on. Don't over plan your day so there is no room for the unpredictable or uncontrollable.

keep moving forward

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Thu, 07 Jun 2007 09:26:10 -0500

Here is another good quote to start you day with. It is from Richard Flint,a speaker I have enjoyed numerous times over the years...

When yesterday is still today, your life is out of control.

Yesterday is a reference library, not a room to live in. When yesterday gets pushed into today, there is not enough room to achieve what you didn't get done yesterday and what has to be done today. The key is not over planning and completing what you start.

Bark Parks open in Mercer County

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Sat, 02 Jun 2007 11:35:04 -0500

A recent reminder has been issued by mercer County executive Brian Hughes about the County's "Bark Parks" here is a copy of that release as well as the link to mercer County Parks and all the great features they have to offer. You know I live very close to the park and am always amazed that there are events there almost every day during the summer. get out and enjoy the parks and the great weather. here is a picture of our friendly family dog "Daisy" my girls love taking her out to the park, see you there !!

e > Information Center > Press Releases > May-24-07 Hughes Encourages Residents with Dogs to visit County "Bark Parks" May-24-07 Hughes Encourages Residents with Dogs to visit County "Bark Parks" Contact: Julie Willmot
(609) 278-7137

TRENTON, N.J. -Mercer County Executive Brian M. Hughes reminded dog owners across the County of a great option for enjoying the warm weather with their canine friends: the "Bark Parks" at Mercer County Park.

"Our Bark Parks are a terrific resource for keeping your dog healthy and happy when the weather is good," said Hughes.

The Bark Parks consist of two separate parks-one for dogs weighing under 35 pounds and one for dogs weighing over 35 pounds. The Small Dog Bark Park measures approximately 13,000 square feet; the Big Dog Bark Park, approximately 29,000 square feet. Both parks include fenced-in areas, different surface areas, obstacles, "dog friendly" water fountains and a variety of other active recreation resources for dogs.

Since the opening of the Bark Parks in 2005, this site has been a very popular destination for pets and their owners all year round. To this end, the Park Commission installed portable lighting in both to improve visibility during the darker evening hours of early spring and late fall. The Bark Parks provide a safe, clean, and environmentally friendly environment in which dogs may run free. They also constitute the only area in the Mercer County Park System that does not require owners to leash their dogs at all times.

Hughes remarked that he "was really proud to get involved with this project a few years ago. When possible, government needs to open up new recreation opportunities for every resident, both human and animal."

washington township mercer county elections,west windsor council elections

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Wed, 30 May 2007 11:07:07 -0500

Redevelopment Plans Take Front and Center in Washington Twp. and West Windsor Twp. Council Elections

On May 8, two nonpartisan council elections were decided in Mercer municipalities with major redevelopment issues-Washington and West Windsor townships.

In Washington Township, the election was regarded as a referendum on the current administration with the overwhelming victory of incumbent David Boyne (790 votes), Chris Ciaccio (845 votes), and Timothy McGough (765 votes). All three candidates had been supported by Mayor David Fried, and will now serve a four-year term beginning July 1. The winning slate pledged to continue curbing residential development, particularly in the planned Washington Town Center, in hopes of slowing development that has burdened the area schools with an in-flux of school-aged children and resulted in sky rocketing property taxes.

In West Windsor, where a planned transit village at the Princeton Junction Train Station that includes 1,000 housing units seemed to be the main issue on voters' minds, residents elected the 'Best 4 West Windsor' slate that included incumbents Charles Morgan (1,856 votes) and Will Anklowitz (1,925 votes), and newcomer George Borek (1,607 votes). The slate, which is opposed to many elements of the proposed transit village plan, particularly the 1,000 housing units, won all but three of the voting districts in West Windsor. The victory gives them the numbers to control the five- member council beginning July 1.

Although Hillier Architecture is set to reveal its latest version of the transit village plan at a public meeting with township council, the planning board and mayor on June 4, how the project will move forward remains to be seen with Morgan, Anklowitz, and Borek taking office this summer.

Princeton twp senior luxury housing

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Wed, 30 May 2007 11:01:54 -0500

Princeton Township Approves 49 Senior Luxury Housing Units

On May 3, the Princeton Regional Planning Board approved a long-awaited plan to build 49 market-rate senior housing units on the Princeton Ridge between Mount Lucas Road and Route 206, just northeast of the Redding Circle. The Board unanimously approved the housing project after the developers agreed to drastically reduce the number of trees that would be lost on the heavily wooded site.

The revised building plan will result in a net loss of 130-150 mature trees, which is considerably lower than the first design that would have destroyed around 550 trees. As a condition of the planning board's approval, the developer will have to close that tree gap by paying $250 per tree for off-site reforestation to make up for the thinned out woods.

The housing development plan still needs approvals from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection to convert a proposed swale to a piping system in order to address some of the storm water runoff on the site. The Township has pledged to work with the developer to help them through the DEP waiver process to ensure expedited construction.

Warrior One Featured in CNN Documentary

Over the U.S. Memorial Day weekend, Dave Liniger and the Warrior One Hummer were featured in a special CNN documentary, "Warrior One For All."

SEEN: The Warrior One will be in Ohio this weekend.

The documentary tells the story of Warrior One, how the Linigers bought it at auction, and how the resulting "RE/MAX Tour for the Troops" is raising awareness of wounded veterans through Warrior One appearances across the country.

The documentary aired three times.

Warrior One became a home-away-from-home for a CNN news crew embedded with the US Marines during the invasion of Iraq. It was brought to America and completely rebuilt on the TV show Overhaulin'.

After the overhaul, the Linigers acquired the vehicle at the Barrett-Jackson auction for $1 million dollars. The entire bid was donated to the Fisher House Foundation, which assists wounded veterans and their families with housing during extended medical treatments.

CNN Warrior One is now appearing around the country on the "RE/MAX Tour for the Troops," which raises funds for the Sentinels of Freedom Scholarship Foundation.

Millions of people will see the Hummer at air shows, auto shows and other veterans events this year.

During the Memorial Day weekend, CNN Warrior One was at the Chagrin Falls Blossom Time Festival in the Cleveland area. A CNN news crew provided live coverage of the three-day event.

Good Clean baseball joke

T. Christopher Hill (RE/MAX TRICOUNTY) — Fri, 25 May 2007 08:29:55 -0500

I am a huge baseball fan. Both of my boys play baseball on various teams.My high school son on his school team plus American legion ball in the summer.My older boy pitches for his college team along with a summer college team. So whenever I hear a good baseball joke I love to pass it on. Just heard this one this week,hope you like it !!!

Two 90-year-old men, Moe and Joe, have been friends all of their lives.

When it's clear that Joe is dying, Moe visits him every day. One day
Moe says, "Joe, we both loved baseball all our lives, and we played
minor league ball together for so many years. Please do me one favor.
When you get to Heaven, somehow you must let me know if there's base-
ball up there."

Joe looks up at Moe from his death bed," Moe, you've been my best friend
for many years. If it's at all possible, I'll do this favor for you."

Shortly after that, Joe passes on.

At midnight a couple of nights later, Moe is awakened from a sound
sleep by a blinding flash of white light and a voice calling out to
him, "Moe -- Moe."

"Who is it?, asks Moe sitting up suddenly. "Who is it?"

"Moe--it's me, Joe."

"You're not Joe. Joe just died."

"I'm telling you, it's me, Joe," insists the voice.

"Joe! Where are you?"

"In heaven", replies Joe. "I have some really good news and a little
bad news."

"Tell me the good news first," says Moe.

"The good news," Joe says," is that there's baseball in heaven. Better
yet, all of our old buddies who died before us are here, too. Better
than that, we're all young again. Better still, it's always springtime
and it never rains or snows. And best of all, we can play baseball all
we want, and we never get tired."

"That's fantastic," says Moe. "It's beyond my wildest dreams! So what
could possibly be the bad news?"

"You're pitching on Tuesday."
