home for sale: Atlantic City | Atlantic County | New Jersey | Condo - 10/24/09 04:48 AM
Those of you who have followed my blog for a while have probably noticed that the subject has slowly changed.  Over the past year or so I was focused primarily on foreclosed properties and short sales.  While we were in a foreclosure crisis, I spent most of my time trying to help homeowners in need.  I'm still helping the occasional homeowner with their foreclosure, but now I've again switched my focus to where I think the greatest opportunities are.  Houses are cheap all over South Jersey, but I have found that there are particularly good deals in the Atlantic City Condo … (0 comments)

home for sale: Camden County | New Jersey | Pricing Your Home to Sell - 09/25/09 08:16 AM
As you can probably imagine, pricing a home correctly is one of the most important factors in getting it sold quickly.  When I have this conversation with most homeowners, they usually assume that I'm just trying to get them to give their home away so that I can get a quick sale.  This couldn't be further from the truth, while I often suggest pricing a home competitively, I always keep in mind my clients goals and the realities of the market.  Recently while working with a client that had originally priced his home very competitively, I actually suggested to increase the … (0 comments)

home for sale: 53 Rye Ln | Larkspur | Shamong | Burlington County | New Jersey | Home for Sale - Success - 08/21/09 07:15 AM
I know that I've been talking a lot about all of the good news out there in the housing market, and I just wanted to take a minute to thank all of my clients, and the people like them that are making this recovery happen.  I think one of the best examples of this recently were my clients at 53 Rye Lane in Shamong.  They listed their house with me a little over a month ago, and it was under contract within 30 days.  Now there home is in an area where several other homes have sat on the market for … (0 comments)

home for sale: New Jersey | Selling Homes in Today's Market - 08/20/09 08:41 AM
Well, again it's been a few days since I've posted anything to my blog, and again it's because there is just so much happening in our market.  Last time I mentioned that I had just gotten two houses under contract, and since then I've put one more under contract and have one small multifamily investment property that we're negotiating.  This is just incredible activity given the recent past.
In case you're wondering, none of these homes are being given away, and only one is a short sale.  I think that this is more evidence that the recovery is in full swing.  … (0 comments)

home for sale: New Jersey | Selling Homes in Today's Market - 08/12/09 08:09 AM
It's been a few days since I posted anything to my blog, and that really isn't like me.  Lately I've had so much activity, that I haven't even had a spare minute to talk about all the great things going on in today's market.  I would say that the activity my listings are getting is double or triple what it was only a month ago, and this month I've already gotten two homes under contract.  I think that a lot of this is just a reflection of the changing market, but I would also like to think that some of the … (0 comments)

home for sale: 431 W. 1st Ave | Runnemede | Camden County | New Jersey | Home For Sale - Back on The Market - 08/04/09 06:28 AM
Their loss can be your gain.  Unfortunately the buyers who had this spectacular home under contract were not able to get their, despite their preapproval.  Because of this, you again have the opportunity to purchase this fantastic 2 bedroom 1 bath in Runnemede.  This home had multiple offers the first time on the market, and I'm sure this time won't be any different.

Please feel free to call to schedule a showing, or to discuss the sale of your home.

home for sale: Camden County and Burlington County | NJ | Rent to Own Opportunities - 07/29/09 03:37 AM
It's been a little while since I've blogged about rent to own opportunities, but I think that it's about that time again.  As many sellers are finding it difficult to sell there properties, more and more are starting to entertain the idea of selling their home as a rent to own.  I've come across several of these opportunities recently, and some of them are still available for a 'well qualified' buyer.
At this point some of you may be wondering what a 'well qualified' buyer is for a rent to own, and the answer is: it depends.  For most of the opportunities that I've come … (1 comments)

home for sale: Medford Village | Medford | Burlington County | NJ | Buying a Home - Negotiations - 07/09/09 04:35 AM
As a continuation of yesterday's post, today I'm going to cover the basic things that a home seller should do to prepare for negotiating the sale of their home.
1.  First the seller should figure out what their bottom line is.  What is the minimum that they would take for the home and still net the amount of money that they truly need.  This should always be decided up front because it is when the seller is thinking most rationally , and not yet caught up in the drama of the negotiating process.
2.  Then the seller should determine the market … (1 comments)

home for sale: Medford Village | Medford | Burlington County | NJ | Buying a Home - Negotiations - 07/08/09 03:08 AM
As promised, I'm going to spend a little time blogging about negotiating the sale or purchase of a home.  I think that the first and most important tip that I can give is to be prepared.  I know that this sounds like common sense, but I can't tell you how often I'm involved in negotiations with people who clearly have not done their homework.  Let's take a quick look at what the buyer should do to prepare for the negotiating process:
Buyer Negotiation Preparation:
1.  The very first thing that a buyer should do is to know what they can afford.  This entails … (0 comments)

home for sale: Cherry Hill | Camden County | New Jersey | Waiting for the Market to Change - 07/06/09 06:37 AM
One of the comments that I often get from buyers, or potential buyers, is that they're waiting for the market to change.  I understand that there is a lot of bad news out there, but this idea of waiting for the market to change really doesn't make any sense to me.  Right now there is a strong buyers market, and properties are being sold for less than they have in years.  At this moment, homes are 'on sale', and in some cases up to 50% off.  I've never heard anyone say that they really wanted to buy a new tv, computer, … (0 comments)

home for sale: Medford | Burlington County | New Jersey | Pricing Your Home to Sell - 07/03/09 06:43 AM
I had the pleasure today of listing the home of a good friend of mine.  I say it was a pleasure because it's great to go to a listing presentation and know that the person that I'm talking to trusts me and knows that I'm looking out for his or her best interest.  Now I'm always honest with potential clients, but I can often tell that they're wondering if I'm really looking out for their best interest.  This usually becomes most evident when we talk about pricing their home. 
I strongly believe that if my client is truly interested in selling, they … (0 comments)
