buying a home: The Best Reference - EVER!!! Home sold in under 90 Days! - 07/18/08 05:18 AM
I helped a couple sell their Wisconsin home this spring.  They were selling in the worst market in a long, long time.  On top of that, when they listed their home we had the worst winter in Wisconsin History.  Spring proved to be about the same.

We closed their home and they have happily settled in Georgia.  They sent me a wonderful reference letter for my use in obtaining new clients.  Here it is!

buying a home: New Construction nightmare!! Another company files Chapter 11 and leaves liens on properties! - 05/31/08 09:31 AM
Minnesota company files Chapter 11 this week leaving Milwaukee area families in tough situation.
Homes under construction and completed have gotten construction liens filed on their properties due to a Minnesota company's financial difficulty.
It was reported by the local paper that President Homes has not paid some subcontractors for work and items such as cabinets that were put in homes.  The homeowners have paid for these items, however the contractors weren't paid.  That means the contractor has the right to file a lien against the home.  In essence these liens must be paid off for the homeowners to have clear … (0 comments)

Key points talked about at the Midyear Legislative Meetings & Trade Expo:
Many "middle-America" cities are likely to see price gains in the 20 to 30 percent range over the next five years. (speaking of areas like Milwaukee, Kansas City and Cincinnati)  The average rate of appreciation in the Milwaukee area over the past 10 … (4 comments)

buying a home: Meth Labs and Buying a Home! - 05/12/08 10:00 AM
 
After recently showing a REO, Foreclosure property and suspecting the home may have been used to cook Meth I found information on the internet to help future home buyers:
If you are planning to move into a new home, duplex or apartment, there are steps you can take to help ensure your family's safety.
 
 
 
Please note that I AM NOT AN EXPERT.  In stumbling across a home with a very offensive odor and becoming physically ill (along with my buyer), I decided to do some online checking.  This list came from several law enforcement agencies.  Please do … (10 comments)

buying a home: REO Foreclosure - Buyers Beware. Agents showing BEWARE!!! - 05/10/08 11:46 AM
Have you ever had a bad feeling before a showing - I mean a really bad feeling??  We all have an inner sense to keep us out of trouble.  Do we listen to it? I was praying this morning for safety as I drove to my showing appointment.
Before scheduling the appt to see this home I got a small history lesson from the listing agent.  Earlier this week we could not look at the home because it wasn't secure.  I mean there were squatters there.
Oh, I really don't want to walk into trouble......
The police were called to get … (18 comments)
