Why you should purchase your next home in Hampstead New Hamsphire

This is a contest entry to the Active Rain Buyer Challenge:

copyright Monika McGillicuddy 2007

 

Hello Michelle and Tom,

Thank you so much for contacting me and most importantly Welcome to New Hampshire.

I think once you see what we have to offer, you'll fall in love with New Hampshire and Hampstead in particular. I hope that I can help you "see and feel" a little of what I see and feel about Hampstead.

I've included in this e-mail some links to articles that I have written about Hampstead and the surrounding areas, a short video and 2 virtual tours of the town. One is a fall/winter tour and the other is one I made especially for you.

As we discussed on the phone today I have gone ahead and set you up to receive automatic listing alerts so that when anything new enters the market that meets your criteria you will be notified.

I have also set up an account for you on our website that will allow you to search all currently listed homes in Hampstead and surrounding communities.

Just follow the link below and if you have any problems with the directions I gave you, just let me know... don't forget your pass word is "Monika".

Monika, wow, excellent post for the buyers challenge. But, I thought John and Michelle were moving to MI and then I heard Calif. Fickle aren't they ?  LOL

Thanks Missy.

Monika, WOW, excellent post! I use to live in Manchester and you've made me homesick....Hampstead is a great little town, hope you win the contest!

Monika - Visiting you guys is one thing, but now you make me want to move! Great entry for the contest. Hope you win!

09/15/2007 09:26 PM by Linda Scanlan (The Real Estate Referral Company)


Linda...Thank you so much. So when are you coming??? I'm dying to see Jay's twin!! Even though Jay is in the Dog House after what he wrote about me on his blog! Men!!!!

09/15/2007 09:30 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Hi Monika - it would be next summer sometime. I've already told him we just have to come. I feel like I know you already! 

Jay should be in the Big Dog House!! I think you should get a BIG SHINY something for your anniversary after saying you snore!! Why is it that men think they don't!  Mike even scares the dog with his snoring! LOL!

09/15/2007 09:35 PM by Linda Scanlan (The Real Estate Referral Company)


Hi Monika,

Fabulous entry into the contest, I think you nailed it! Now I must check out Jay's blog after hearing he wrote about you...;) Best of luck to you!

 

 

09/15/2007 09:36 PM by Suzanne Sands-Somerset, MA Real Estate (Century 21 Associates Realty)


Thank you Linda....now I feel better.  Jay is a very bad boy tonight! Very bad! Next year...that sounds awesome!

 

Suzanne...Thanks a bunch! There are so many awesome entries that I think the judges are going to have a hard time deciding. 

09/15/2007 09:42 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Great entry Monika...I don't know about those two Buyers though! Something tells me they aren't serious!

09/15/2007 09:56 PM by Joan Mirantz- Concord New Hampshire Realtor (Keeler Family Realtors)


Fabulous.  Everything is there including pricing.  If I were in the market for your area, I'd have you on the phone today. 

09/16/2007 06:05 AM by Lenn Harley, Homefinders.com, MD & VA Real Estate


Joan...I think they are serious but simply exploring every possible location and state... Thanks for stopping by.

 

Thanks Lenn...Coming from you that statement means a lot !!!

09/16/2007 06:48 AM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Monika - Excellent post.  I think you cover everything and the visual you sent certainly enhanced the presentation, you should do well in the contest.

09/16/2007 07:11 AM by Jennifer Fivelsdal,ABR,GRI,SRES (Keller Williams Realty)


Hi Jennifer,

Thank you so much. It was a tough contest...so many awesome entries. Thanks for commenting!

09/16/2007 07:29 AM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Hi Monika - WOW!!! You did an AWESOME job with this entry! Love the layout and the links you included are terrific. These buyers certainly, in my opinion, can't help but fall in love with your area - you painted such a beautiful picture with your post. Your videos really add a lot to showcase Hampstead and why you love the area that they're sure to as well.

Great entry and good luck in the contest!

09/16/2007 07:55 AM by Portsmouth NH Real Estate ~ Ann Cummings (RE/MAX Coast to Coast - Portsmouth New Hampshire)


Thank you Ann.  This was not easy...I kept thinking it was too long...too much white space!  This contest really made me stretch, thats for sure.

 

09/16/2007 08:30 AM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Wow Moni, I'm sold!  This is an awesome post full of great information.  Love the tours.

09/16/2007 02:41 PM by Rick & Ines - Miami Shores Real Estate (Coldwell Banker)


Incredible post Monika!

Great information, links and video - then, you wrap up the entire package perfectly:

"There is a wealth of information available and I am but an e-mail or phone call away to answer any questions that you might have."

 

09/16/2007 03:23 PM by Debbie DiFonzo, Broker, United Country VIP Realty


Ines...Thank you so much. That video was fun to do...but I sure do hate my accent.

 

Debbie...Thanks for the compliments! I kept thinking my words sounded corny..but I'm glad I left them. Thank you so much.

09/16/2007 05:55 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Ah Monika - what accent??!?!?!? You sound like you - just like you're supposed to sound! Your videos are just fine - a great touch to your letter to these buyers! Ann

09/16/2007 07:36 PM by Portsmouth NH Real Estate ~ Ann Cummings (RE/MAX Coast to Coast - Portsmouth New Hampshire)


LOL...Oh my...I sure hope you're wrong Ann! That really can't be me talking!

09/16/2007 08:02 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


'Enjoyed your videos, Monika.  Nice addition to the buyer letter!  By the way, I checked out your blog and LOVE the photo at the top.  Good job!

09/16/2007 08:30 PM by Margaret Woda, Maryland REALTOR (RE/MAX VISION)


I had to go back to hear the accent.....what accent is that??? You want to hear an accent?

09/16/2007 08:30 PM by Rick & Ines - Miami Shores Real Estate (Coldwell Banker)


Monika-Loved your post and the video's. Full of info. They sure are getting around!  This buyer challenge has lots of competition.  

09/16/2007 10:17 PM by Midori Miller-Daytona Beach Florida Real Estate Training (CENTURY 21 Sundance Realty)


Thank you Margaret. I took that picture on my blog while driving along the NH coast...I loved i.

Thanks so much!  

09/17/2007 04:28 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Ines...LOL accent you??? No way I've heard you speak.

Midori...I don't know about Tom and Michelle! The contest has been fun and so many great entries...Thank god I'm not a judge!!! 

09/17/2007 04:31 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


This was an exceptional entry Monika!  I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and watching the videos! 

09/17/2007 05:19 PM by Audu Real Estate~Grand Rapids, MI Real Estate Broker


Thank you Lola. This contest has sure been fun!

Sally...I do love adding the shows and I thought your show was awesome.  I love Hawaii!

09/18/2007 09:20 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Monika - I don't know where our fickle buyers Tom and Michelle will end up but I for one am ready to move to NH. At least with Paris she might actually buy from all of us. I have heard tales that after she talked to me she spotted in Miami as well talking with Ines. Fickle...

09/18/2007 10:47 PM by Albuquerque Real Estate | Ashley Drake Gephart (Keller Williams Realty)


Ashley...I'd love to sell you a home in Hampstead. Paris does have enough money to buy from all of us...so we'll let her be fickle.

But Tom and Michelle...they really fell in love with Hampstead. I think they are just covering all the bases...trying to be sure before they sign on the dotted line.  :)

09/19/2007 08:46 AM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Wow, Monika. This is terrific. So much information for the buyers. What more do they really need to know??

Jeff

09/20/2007 06:35 PM by Jeff Dowler ~ Carlsbad Real Estate (RE/MAX Associates)


Thank you Jeff. Your entry blows me away...so I am very honored by your compliment.

09/20/2007 07:10 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Monika -- Congratulations on being the overall winner of the Buyer Challenge.....

09/21/2007 05:03 PM by Western New York Home Sales | Colleen Kulikowski (Hunt Real Estate ERA)


Reading the buyers challenge entries makes me glad I am not a judge in this contest. I'm going around reading and getting ideas from everyone. Another great entry! Good Luck, Monika!

09/21/2007 05:05 PM by Indianapolis Real Estate | Paula Henry (ReMax Excel)


Wow, I want to move there.  I have never been to New Hampshire, but it's a place that is definitely high on the list now. I know that my husband really wants me to take him there for his birthday soon, but I think I'd rather go in the fall (his birthday is in January).

09/21/2007 05:20 PM by Amy Steele (Bibby Realty)


I want to move there too....hey Miss Moni this is on a scale of one to ten a fifteen! Loved the screen shots too. I'd love a summer home there so I could get my fill of lobster :-)  Your clients, I don't know if they are even from New England, but one thing I loved about living there all those years ago was how close it was to so much natural beauty. Hiking, swimming, day trips, Boston.  Even NYC is not that far away. And then there are the sand dunes yes!

09/21/2007 05:55 PM by Carole Cohen (Howard Hanna Cleveland City Office)


Beautiful post Monica. Very impressive!!

09/21/2007 06:29 PM by Bryant Tutas-Tutas Towne Realty, Inc


Monika, how could they possibly say no to this.  Do you have the Sales Contract ready for them to sign :)

Great job Monika ...... very nicely done.

09/21/2007 06:46 PM by George Souto (McCue Mortgage Co.)


Hey Monika - congrats on your win!!!

"Woo-Hoo" as Sally says!!  You did a beautiful job on your post for this contest - gorgeous all the way through.

09/21/2007 07:35 PM by Jay McGillicuddy~Real Estate Broker (Prudential Verani Realty)


Oh, my goodness Monika! First Jay has the nerve to say you snore! Then he asks if supper is ready??? He sounds more like his twin every day!! LOL

Again - Congrats!

09/21/2007 07:38 PM by Linda Scanlan (The Real Estate Referral Company)


OMG!! I can't believe I won!!! Holy Cow!

I've had a horrible day but coming home to this is awesome.  Thank you all so much. I am simply speechless, so many excellent entries..I can't believe mine got picked!

09/21/2007 08:27 PM by Portsmouth NH Real Estate ~ Ann Cummings (RE/MAX Coast to Coast - Portsmouth New Hampshire)


Very nice post - congratulations -- I actually have clients named "Tom and Michelle" and they are looking for a larger home as now they have 2 darling boys.  I think Hampstead is a bit far for them.  You did a great job!

09/21/2007 10:31 PM by Joan Whitebook, ABR, e-Pro, CEBA (Buyer's Option Realty Services)


CONGRATS MONI!!!  Awesome win and very well deserved!

09/21/2007 11:23 PM by Rick & Ines - Miami Shores Real Estate (Coldwell Banker)


I'm back just to say Congratulations!  I knew that Tom and Michelle would like New Hampshire after seeing your post!  You've inspired me to figure out this whole video thing.

09/22/2007 12:10 AM by Margaret Woda, Maryland REALTOR (RE/MAX VISION)


WOW Monika, talk about going all out!  You went ALL the way, nice job.

09/22/2007 02:13 AM by Downtown Long Beach Condos Long Beach Real Estate, Laurie Manny (Prudential California Realty)

09/22/2007 04:44 AM by Tracy Santrock - Cary NC Real Estate (Fonville Morisey)


Monika, congratulations on the big win!  Like Margaret above, I'm inspired to start using the video.  I've seen the Real Estate Shows all over AR and now I've got to consider using them myself.  Great job!

09/22/2007 06:10 AM by Brian Block -- Northern Virginia & D.C. Real Estate (RE/MAX Allegiance)

Oh my goodness...so many comments. I'll never be able to answer them all but I read them all! Thank you all so much for your very kind comments.

Jay and I are leaving for the Mount Washington Hotel tomorrow morning for the NH Association of REALTORS Convention. We're meeting Ann Cummings there...it should be fun and educational. I wonder if Ann is bringing Flat Matt??? I can feel a blog post coming...

09/22/2007 08:25 PM by Monika McGillicuddy~ N.H. Real Estate Broker & Trainer (Prudential Verani Realty/Hampstead)


Wow!  Monica, I'm sold on Hampstead.  As soon as I convince my wife that we need to sell our new home here in Orlando and relocate to NH, I'll be calling YOU to purchase our next home.  LOL  Great job!

09/29/2007 11:36 AM by Lake Mary & Orlando Real Estate, Central Florida, Christopher Myers (Orlando Property Group at Keller Williams)
