Bought my first home with my ex in November 1993. It was a seller's market. We were looking for months and didn't find "the one". It wasn't because we were picky and we weren't. There wasn't a lot of homes to choose from in our price range. Needless to say, we did find the perfect house, so we thought.

buying a home in lindenhurst ny: 31 Days of December Challenge - Day 29 - 12/30/10 01:03 AM
31 Days of December Challenge - Day 29 Day 29 - Went into the office and updated my 2011 Business Plan. Wrote 3 market reports and a post for the 31 Days of December Challenge. Then went into the office all day. I got new buyers who were walk-ins...woohoo! They have a 4 month time frame which works for me. Rushing to help someone buy a home can be stressful on myself and my buyers. I love it when buyers can take their time!Until tomorrow, have an awesome day everyone!

The Lindenhurst NY Real Estate Market: Who Do You Think You're Fooling?
A few nights ago I was out with a buyer client showing homes. We entered a nice home and the homeowner gave us a brochure that their real estate agent created for them. After we left my client read it and pointed out something very interesting. One section said: "There are more homes going off the market than coming on"
