montclair: UPSIDE-DOWN TURKEY - 12/03/10 12:18 AM
MY HUSBAND, BOBBY, BOUGHT THIS HUGE 34LB TURKEY AND I MUST ADMIT MY FIRST INCLINATION WAS TO REMARK IT MIGHT BE A TOUGH OLD BIRD!   WELL BOBBY ESTIMATED IT MIGHT TAKE ABOUT 8 HOURS TO COOK IN OUR CONVECTION OVEN SO HE CAREFULLY PREPARED THE MONSTER AND PUT IT IN THE OVEN AT 12:30 A.M. ON THANKSGIVING MORNING AT OUR HOME IN WEST CALDWELL .  HE EAGERLY CHECKED ON THE CROONER AT 6:30 A.M. AND EXCLAIMED "THIS THING IS OVER DONE!" AND "THERE'S NO MEAT ON IT'S BREAST" AND "HELL, IM RUNNING UP TO STOP AND SHOP TO GET A BUTTER BALL".  BLEARY-EYED AS I WAS, I … (5 comments)

montclair: IS THE RIGHT TIME TO SELL YOUR HOME - 11/08/10 08:36 PM
Most sellers think the dead of winter is the worst time to sell a home.  This isn't always the case.  I've been sitting in a seller's kitchen on Christmas Eve, signing a purchase contract as sheets of snow were falling off the roof top.  Most people hold off putting their homes on during the winter for fear of a reduced buyer pool or their home just doesn't look saleable.  Serious buyers are always around for one reason or another.  Lease terms are up.  Relocation.  Since inventory is low, buyers will take a second look at what is actually on the market … (0 comments)

montclair: Home prices expect to fall another 6 percent in New Jersey by next year - 10/28/10 01:12 AM
Otteau Valuations, a well-respected NJ housing market tracker, predicted that home prices may drop another six percent by next year in New Jersey.  Rail towns, e.g. Montclair, South Orange, Maplewood and Summit, may not fare so badly.  Interest rates are expected to creep down even further giving way to any inflation.  Now is such a good time to look at buying.  It could now turn out to be cheaper than renting.

montclair: Pricing Homes Correctly - 01/22/09 09:44 PM
I went to visit a customer in Montclair, NJ, to whom I sold a home 8 years ago. The home had a lot of potential back then but money has been tight and her dreams were not realized and now she wants to sell. I gave her a price to really get some interest in the home. She felt the home was worth $75,000 more than I was telling her. She wanted buyers to see the potential that her home has and be willing to pay for it. I had the hard task of telling her that buyers are not looking to … (1 comments)

montclair: Foreclosures - 11/05/08 10:50 AM
As a real estate agent in New Jersey plagued with having to sell foreclosures and doing BPO's on peoples' homes about to go in to this abyss, I am touched by the actual people who are loosing their homes. We tend to forget the human touch that these homes once had and that they are like abandoned children no longer well cared for or loved. Yet, if you look carefully, there are all the little signs that show a home was once loved by people when their home was their castle. The flowers planted so lovingly, the home once decorated for … (2 comments)
