ellicott city realtor: Whose Time Are You Wasting?
- 03/31/11 07:52 AM
Whose Time Are You Wasting? This is a story I hear all the time - a Homeowner wants to move, but they don't think they can because of what they've heard about ‘this market'. When I ask the Homeowner why they think that, I usually get answers about what they've heard on the news about the tough real estate market, or the lagging economy, or about foreclosures and short sales driving down prices. In this situation, I always offer to take some time and sit down with them to help them really evaluate if moving is an option, and I often get … (0 comments)
ellicott city realtor: Sometimes I Have to Ask Myself....Am I a Realtor, or a Therapist?
- 08/11/10 10:46 AM
Sometimes I Have to Ask Myself....Am I a Realtor, or a Therapist? I'm working with a young couple, first time buyers, about to get married. I will call them Abby and Charles*. We're sitting down at our first appointment and I am explaining the Home Buying Process. The first question I always ask my clients is "What's Most Important to You?", and the second question I always ask is "How do you make decisions?" When I ask this of my two young clients, they took a moment to look at each other, then looked back at me and replied in unison … (4 comments)
ellicott city realtor: Moving - It's Easy to Underestimate Your Stuff
- 06/30/10 08:54 AM
I helped a friend move yesterday, and it reminded me of an old George Carlin bit about Stuff (here's your warning: if you didn't know, George Carlin's comedy material is not G Rated, or PG Rated, or probably even PG-13 Rated):
Helping my friend move also reminded me that it's easy to underestimate all of your Stuff. Here is my list of things to keep in mind when you are moving: If you estimate that you need 2 weeks to move your Stuff, you really need 4. If you estimate you need 10 boxes for all of your Stuff, you … (1 comments)

ellicott city realtor: When is Enough Enough?
- 05/26/10 09:00 AM
I have a house that is currently listed at $475,000. The home has been at the market for about 60 days, and at the time it was listed, I had numerous comps to support the list price. The home, although older, has had many updates with newer windows, newer HVAC, a recently finished basement, fully updated kitchen and bathrooms, and is decorated neutrally throughout. Further, it is districted for a high school that is considered desirable by many in the area. It is a dream home to list and show. In the past 60 days, nothing has sold in the neighborhood. … (2 comments)

List Price - Is what you see what you get? What does the "List Price" mean? What does it include? What doesn't it include? Pricing Strategies for a Quick Sale. A home came on the market recently in a neighborhood that is considered very desirable by my Buyers. The home was significantly discounted, which means that the list price was approximately 10% below other homes that were comparable. When we got there, we could see that the house had not been well kept and would need a lot of updating. The Buyers were fine with making cosmetic updates and the expected … (5 comments)
