home buying services: Are you a Hampton Roads Hoarders you can't sell a home like this - 03/09/09 08:05 AM
After a day of showing property in Hampton Roads I was left baffled at how many sellers do not bother to unclutter  or just simply clean up their homes.  I went to a home in Norfolk, VA in which I literally stepped over underwear to show the bathroom and had to tell my clients to imagine a shower with out hanging bras.  I had gave a days notice so this was not a last minute appt.  We looked at a few more homes then wandered in a home in Chesapeake, VA that had to be owned by a person with  DISPOSOPHOBIA the … (5 comments)

home buying services: Chesapeake Direct Buy Program - 02/09/09 03:02 AM
Has anyone taking the direct buy free look orientation or bought a membership?
I admit it looks and sounds great.  But besides Sam's Club I hate to pay monthly for anything. 
Their website boast, that they are "the #1 way to buy direct for your home. Discover how you can purchase home furnishings and appliances directly from the manufacturer."
The commercials outline huge discounts of course I know it is a commercial.  They weigh the pros & cons of wholesale vs resale.
They even mention discounts on contractors. 
So If you know anything about this program.  Please pass on the info. Thanks … (5 comments)

Who is the Real Estate Professional?
When you start the process of buying a home you get excited and want to discuss your purchase with Mothers, Fathers, Aunts and Co Workers.  Everyone will quickly become an expert and exhibit their opinion.  But remember to ask yourself Who is the professional?  Is it your Aunt who is a teacher, your brother the police officer, your cousin the hair stylist.  No, Its me your Agent!   I admit I know its easy to find several friends and family members who have dabbled in the real estate business.  Ask those who used to be licensed, … (2 comments)
