lisa wetzel: Be Sure To Assess Value Versus Price When Making Your Offer - 08/13/09 04:16 AM

It seems like Buyers want to offer a certain percentage below the list price regardless of what the price is. This is causing many of them to miss out on homes that they should be buying.
The List Price is not a target to mark down from. It must be analyzed for accuracy for the property being offered. If it is 30% overpriced and you offer 20% below that you are still paying 10% too much. If it is 10% under priced and you pay 1% over the list price you are still getting a great value.
Be sure to assess … (2 comments)

lisa wetzel: I've Got A Short Stack ... Yeah! - 08/05/09 03:14 PM

I've got a short stack of alfalfa for my goats and to supplement my horses.

We've been trading our alfalfa for grass hay for the past few years. We also have sold to the last dairy in the Carson Valley - dairy hay! What a compliment - that is the best. They got a conservation easement, and sold the dairy herd. there were once 22 dairies, now there are none.
We haven't kept our wonderful alfalfa for a few years, but we've got some now ... a short stack. Yahoo!

lisa wetzel: If You Are Going Through Hell, Keep Going - 08/01/09 02:53 AM

Thanks to John Mulckey, TheHousingGuru, for this wonderful blog. I found great perspective here that I want to share.

Winston Churchill, in a quote describing how we should face adversity, said, “If you are going through hell, keep going.” Nothing better describes how we should best respond to difficult situations. Don’t stop; don’t waste time lamenting; just forge ahead.

There was once a time we lacked the very things that many now feel they have lost. We’ve all had setbacks, temporary reversals that may have thrown us off track; but such vexations are in no means a measure of … (4 comments)

lisa wetzel: Time To Train The Tiger Coaches ... Our Community Service - 08/01/09 02:46 AM

Its time to train the coaches. Football is coming and our young Pop Warner athletes will be hitting the fields in the next couple of weeks. Some come with trepidation, can they really do it? Others come with great anticipation ... they've been waiting for the first day of practice since they walked off the field of their last game last season. They will soon be blended in to a wonderful team of Douglas Tigers.
We spend a lot of time getting our coaches ready for the season. The success of the season is directly attributable to the coaching staff. Success … (1 comments)

lisa wetzel: Clouds ... Another Day In The Carson Valley - 07/31/09 12:58 PM

Another day in the Carson Valley. When we don't have blue skies we get spectacular clouds. This view was from my office this afternoon, 7.31.09. Of course the formation changed by the minute and the hour. There was some lightening later, a smattering of rain, but overall just a cooling from the cloud cover. The entertaining cloud formations morph continuously offering splendor and enjoyment all day long.

lisa wetzel: Buyers Can Help Themselves During The Course Of Escrow - 07/18/09 01:52 AM

Buyers Can Help Themselves During The Course Of Escrow

One area that causes delays, and frustration, in escrow is not having all the documents signed, or signed in a timely manner. … (5 comments)

lisa wetzel: Are You Working With An Agent? ... A Perspective. - 07/16/09 12:26 AM

Agents usually ask right up front when they encounter a prospective buyer, "Are you working with an agent?" Amazingly, "working with an agent" means different things to different people. Not all agents see it alike, and certainly Buyers don't always understand what is being asked. It seems simple enough yet the interpretation varies according to your filters.
A Buyer may have been shown 50 homes by an agent and yet they'll respond "no" when asked. An agent may have talked to a Buyer one time on the phone, given the price and acquired the Buyer's name, and yet they will perceive … (59 comments)
