douglas county wi: Buyers: Are you waiting to hit one out of the park? - 01/27/12 02:45 AM
Buyers: If you are waiting to hit one out of the park, you might miss all the great 1st, 2nd, and 3rd base hits.
I don't very often use sports metaphors, but this one seems appropriate.  I'm telling my buyers now that if they keep waiting for that perfect deal, like in baseball, for that perfect "slam it out of the park," they'll miss all those great 1st, 2nd, and 3rd base deals. 
Don't be the buyer, that in 2013, regrets not buying last year when there was more inventory, fewer buyers, more especially good bargains, the interest rates were at historic … (5 comments)

Tips for a NW Wisconsin real estate market in transition
I have several buyers who are patiently watching the MLS listings for an especially good deal.  I’ve also been passing along listings that seem like a good fit.  Sometimes buyers have been ready to move quickly, and that’s paid off.
Other buyers were busy with work and family commitments, and they needed to wait a couple weeks before we could schedule a showing.  Sometimes that still works out.  But on at least half a dozen occasions during the past few months, I’ve asked for a showing and learned that another buyer … (1 comments)

douglas county wi: Investors and buyers: Douglas County WI offers great values in lake homes, getaway cabins - 12/10/11 08:17 AM
Here in NW Wisconsin, land of clear, deep lakes and big woods, there are many real estate bargains; properties that may be overlooked because they are located on a smaller lake, near but not lakefront, or may be an older cabin that has been lovingly maintained.
A real estate sleeper can be an exceptional bargain that has been overlooked. It’s a great property, location, good to excellent condition, and priced appropriately but simply has not sold. There is a significant inventory of homes but few buyers.
The home may have been initially overpriced and now priced appropriately, but because it’s been sitting on the … (0 comments)

douglas county wi: The lake, streams, and recreation of Douglas County in NW Wisconsin are just 2.5 hours from Minneapolis, St Paul. - 10/29/11 07:15 AM
If you're from Minneapolis/St. Paul, the NW corner of Wisconsin might be closer than you think. And the fastest way to get here is to stay in Minnesota for a while.

If you're heading for Siren, Spooner, or Stone Lake, take the Highway 70 exit for … (0 comments)
