Snow Day in Basking Ridge

By
Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices NJ Properties

This icy February day has me laid up on the couch nursing a cold and wondering what to write about for my next Patch article.  Should I cover underground storage tanks?  It surprise me how many sellers still believe that if it's insured it's okay to leave it in the ground.  Should I write about how to FSBO your home?  When I first started in real estate almost 10 years ago, I loved helping FSBO's make it happen - whether they ended up selling the property themselves or if it were ultimately listed with a Realtor.  I could also write about current market activity - it's been pretty slow here in Basking Ridge.   There have been 17 contract sales since the first of the year and 50 new listings. There were 52 new listings for the same time period last year and 20 contract sales - so I suppose this year isn't much different from last.  Interest rates are a little lower, but the weather is certainly much worse.  I choose to attribute the slight difference to all the SNOW.

Watch for my next Patch article - I hope that whatever I choose to write about will be of interest to someone!
