real estate: Everyone Likes A Sale, RIGHT?? - 08/13/10 03:22 AM
Can you believe that many homes are selling for 25 to 30 percent less than they were just a few short years ago?
Do you realize that interest rates are historically low?
Put these two together and you have an awesome sale!!  We are talking savings of thousands of dollars!!
If this was a Kohl's ad, you people would be all over it!  Get out there and do your research, get pre approved for a mortgage, go over your numbers to be REALISTIC with what YOU can afford and be ready, just incase that perfect home comes on the market that you … (0 comments)

real estate: Over 33,000 reasons why you should buy a home NOW! - 08/11/10 02:00 AM
Did you know that if rates go up to just 6% from 4.5% that equals about $0.93 per $1,000 of principal and interest on a 30 year mortgage? 6% might sound high right now but when I bough a home in 1995 the rates were at 9.5%.  Just ask those who bought before that when they were in the teens!
YES, that is $93 a month on only a $100,000 mortgage. That is an extra $33,480 of just interest over those 30 years!!
That is why people need to see the importance of these low rates and do whatever they can … (1 comments)

real estate: Where Have All The Buyers Gone? - 07/21/10 08:45 AM
I can't believe with...
the number of homes for sale the number of price reductions the current interest rates that there are not more buyers atleast trying to buy.  Do they really need an incentive by the Govt. to jump in and take control of the best financial decision they could make in a while?  Or is the economy and the lack of jobs that serious of a situaton that the number of buyers really is as low as it appears? 
I know homes are selling but I also know I see a lot of decent deals out there and I … (1 comments)

real estate: York County PA Real Estate Snapshot - 03/03/10 04:28 AM
Did you know that York County home sales in 2009, according to RAYAC, The Realtors Association of York and Adams Counties, were only down 3% from 2008? The number of homes sold was actually up 4%.
Remember there are a lot of short sales and foreclosures contributing to these numbers.  Also, it has been mentioned that these short sales are affecting the value of all homes.  If you are thinking of selling, you want to make sure you have a good amount of equity to make it all work.
Do you have a certain School District you would like numbers on? … (0 comments)

If you know someone or know of someone, call them when you want to see something.  Many times I hear from clients that say they went to see a house and that they did not … (0 comments)

real estate: Are you a FSBO, FOR SALE BY OWNER?? - 07/24/08 04:00 AM
I admire the people who try to sell their homes themselves.  It is not always an easy thing to do!
A few years ago, it was very easy.  You put the sign in the yard and then, LOOK OUT!  It was crazy!
Now, not so much.  What I have found from talking with buyers and sellers, when it comes to FSBO's is this...
1.  A lot of the people looking at the homes that are FSBO usually are not in a great position to buy.  They like the fact that they can go see a home without an agent asking if … (0 comments)

real estate: Why It Makes Sense To Buy A Home - 06/18/08 06:17 AM
I was talking with someone recently and the topic of buying real estate came up.
It was his opinion that it's always smart to buy real estate.  I tend to agree, unless of course you are buying in a DEpreciating area.
He said, if he sold his home today for enough profit to pay for his next move, that would be enough for him.   Hmmmmm, that got me thinking.
There are a lot of people out there renting right now.  Do they want to buy?  Probably.  What is stopping them?  Money, credit, bad advice?
Most people do not realize that they … (0 comments)
