pikesville: Housing Markets Go Through Cycles - 12/26/22 10:06 PM
 
Like averages (which we know are meaningless!), headlines tell only a tiny part of any story.
Indeed, getting a reasonable price for your home in a sale is essential, or getting a great deal if you buy.
Remember to look at your own housing needs and not listen to others. Most folks don't buy a home to make money; they do it as a place to raise their family, entertain, put down roots, and feel secure.
 
Housing markets go through cycles. The down markets follow up markets which follow down markets.

Too Late
 
 
This one went lightning fast!
It was sold as the sign was placed in the ground. Such a desirable area in  Pikesville being
located on a cul de sac, close enough to Pikesville school fields to throw balls every day. 
How exciting that this home has everything this lucky family wanted.. the perfect location, four bedrooms on the first floor, big eat in kitchen with adjacent laundry, lower level to finish, a big level backyard and needing enough updating to be in their price range.

pikesville: Referrals And Another Smooth Settlement - 02/08/17 06:18 PM
 
 
I've been working with a buyer who was referred  to me by a former client.
Today we had a very smooth settlement that was done with perfection. We had an efficient coop agent, wonderful appreciative buyers and a very professional title company.
 Afterward we  celebrated with lunch at a local neighborhood restaurant.
 
Here is the photo of the house we closed on today.

pikesville: Love At First Sight - 12/15/16 07:50 PM
 
 
Unique homes appeal to a different group of buyers.  Are you looking for something special...not a cookie cutter or cloneonial? 
For me...the more unique the property..the more exciting.
Buyers may not be able to describe the home they are looking for but they absolutely know when they find it. Unique homes tend to be on the market longer. They are waiting for the right buyer. They are not for everyone. Sellers often tell me...they knew it was the right place from the beginning...sort of love at first sight.
I love selling these homes with loads of personality. The most interesting people gravitate to these wonderfully … (6 comments)

pikesville: Margaret, We Did It! - 07/02/16 01:59 PM
 
 
 
It was a long transaction and one met with many challenges... but the closing, this past Thursday, was smooth as glass.
I had a wonderful buyer, Arlene, and  worked with a very professional Realtor®, Mary Jane McGill, who I have known since the beginning of my real estate career.
 
 
                                                                                 
  This is Arlene the happy new owner.
 
Tonight I received the  following  message:
 
 "Margaret, We did it!
 
Your professionalism and diligence as a real estate agent is incomparable. At times the home buying process was exhausting and daunting, but your enthusiasm kept my dream alive.
I truly thank you.
Arlene ''
 
 
So glad it worked out and we got to closing.  Arlene has … (10 comments)

Another TOO LATE  Baltimore Home
By Margaret Rome
 
We have a ratified contract on this 4 bedroom, 4 level spit in the Willow Glenn area of Pikesville 21208.
We have  a lovely buyer's agent, and all of us are excited for my sellers and this happy first time buyer.
We still need to do the inspections, appraisal and all the other good stuff that goes with the sale of a property.
 
At the home inspection, tomorrow, I will ask the new buyer and her agent to put up the TOO LATE sign.
What do you think of that idea?

Rancher With No Steps In Stevenson
 
3500 Woodvalley Drive

If there is no basement there must be no place to put the stuff.
Not true in this sprawling white brick rancher in the Stevenson area of Baltimore.

In addition there is a  workshop, shed and huge walk in master bedroom closet.
