I recently wrote a post over on my main blog on how using a drone for aerial stills and video can provide enhanced marketing for our home sellers. Aerial views, for now, offer a unique view to capture a home buyers attention. The newness and novelty alone will draw in home buyers.

In the video below you will see this home has a stunning location on the salt marshes. The reason the owners built this custom … (3 comments)

An agent told us a story that was sad and reminded us that "Ethical" does not...or to our minds...should not....just refer to Realtors.

They would talk later about listing his home if he got the house. Days passed....and the house, in MLS had an "active with offer" status. … (1 comments)

Another, less subtle, way to describe contingent offers might be, "dead on arrival." This is because … (0 comments)

In a period of rising mortgage interest rates, some good news has recently arrived from the Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI) industry ...
Most of the predominant PMI companies have reduced rates charged to borrowers that finance a home and have less than 20% to place as a down payment.
As the entire mortgage/lending industry seems to be adopting a "specific risk-based pricing", mortgage insurance companies are taking that approach as well. In addition to "reduced rates/lower premiums", mortgage insurance companies have tracked and now built-in adjustments for specific variables on a case-by-case basis.
Statistics show that two-borrower loans perform better than one. … (1 comments)
