houlton maine: Zip Up Your Winter Jacket, Put On A Helmet, Turn The Key, Climb On Your Maine Snowsled. - 01/27/09 02:42 AM

Seeing Maine from a snowsled...zipping across an open field with tracks of a white tailed deer beside the trail. And then seeing five deer feeding along the edge of a field while you stop to just enjoy the scenery. Going places you can not get by car. Try the 3500 mile system of trails in Maine...and explore "Vacationland" The average snowsledder also brings in roughly a $100 a day to the local economy in gas, food, lodging so most towns in Maine really greet with open arms the rows of machines that roll in from all over creation. Head into Canada..Houlton … (4 comments)

houlton maine: If You Grew Up And Had Your Home Burn Down As a Child...A Fire Department Is A Concern. - 01/23/09 03:14 AM

You may have had a Walton's like up bringing, free of much tragedy or drama. But say you had a fire as a little child that you remember, and everything was wiped out. That stays with you. The event imprints within you. As a REALTOR working with someone that had a fire as a child, you start to realize the fire department in your town is critical to this person. Others wonder about your library and judge your area first on what type of library you have and how it is supported. A buyer with a medical condition suddenly makes the … (4 comments)

houlton maine: Every New Dollar You Can Bring Into Your Area Turns Over Six Times. - 01/18/09 12:54 AM

Living in a small Maine town with roughly 6700 people, not 6.7 million locals means new dollars put into the revenue stream is critical. Unlike a city worried about urban sprawl or protective zoning to control development, small rural Maine towns put their efforts in to different endeavors. Instead of worrying about where this subdivision goes or how large to allow it to be, you put your efforts into different planning exercises. For starters, if you have an ice arena and a strong local hockey program, helping set up tournaments where teams, their parents and fans travel to your town is … (4 comments)

houlton maine: Real Estate Brokers That Wear A Banner To Hold Their Merit Badges...Blah, Blah, Blah. - 01/01/09 04:03 AM

Serious, driven, hard working and boring. Me me me. Stop! Can readers, viewers, listeners get to the real you? Blinded but generating lots of splash about themselves, how they think real estate 24/7. Sometime self centered, conceited and not much different than the high school jock that's lettered jacket in 18 sports clings to that jacket that means the world to him/her. The perception that you work hard, are a real person, warm, genuine and a family human being...may be broadcast and weaved into the media stream of your "brand". But if the goal is to attract customers...readership, attention...can't you go overboard with the … (7 comments)

houlton maine: When You Were A Kid, Going Somewhere With No People & Relaxing Was Not Fun. - 11/16/08 02:40 AM

As a kid, let's have fun, full time. For adults to talk among themselves about how peaceful and beauitful being in the north Maine woods camping, hunting, fishing did not register totally then. Oh sure, growing up and climbing Mt Katahdin with your family or hiking and those picnics with mom's world class food were fun. Family gatherings every Sunday afternoon taking turns on which aunt or uncle's home we would visit. Family and all the ages that occupy it together, laughing, sharing. But the great outdoors without people mixed in time to time was part of everyone's life in rural Maine … (0 comments)

houlton maine: In Maine, We Have Properties With Owner Financing. But Trades Happen Too! - 11/15/08 12:48 AM

An owner of a 320 acre woodlot in Linneus that was lower, wetter land decided to trade that property for a 19 acre high on a hill with a tree plantation property in Ludlow. Trades. Equal value even though the quantity was vastly different. Like a gem, its not just the size that matters. Quality exchanges in Maine for more than money.
1031 exchanges in real estate happen too.
Had a property recently on an Oakfield lake with a log cottage that the owner considered trading for the buyer's Camaro. Did not come down in the final analysis because … (10 comments)

houlton maine: Trick Or Treating...The 3 Year Old, Dryer Than King Tut's Tomb Popcorn Balls Never A Hit. - 10/31/08 02:14 AM

Old apples that were brown, the world's smallest in size did not make the top ten either. What really impressed this goblin as he tramped with his friends and cousins was the older lady who made fresh hot donuts and warm apple cider. She would escort you into the living room where you would tell her who's son you were while munching a donut just off the stove coated in sugar. The home owner who got the little Halloween bags and filled them with a variety of goodies was also a standout in my mind. I realized this person enjoys … (2 comments)

houlton maine: Waiting Until You Need Necessities, Paying Cash, Avoiding Credit Altogether. - 10/22/08 01:42 AM

Hey..what a novel approach. That was the headline in the news today as observed by some of the big box stores in spending patterns of their customers. Isn't that the way it should be? You don't buy way ahead unless there is a deal. You pay for things with money you have now, not hope to have later. You determine what is a priority to buy with what you have. Can't the country be run to live and spend within their means or is that so old fashion, square, so turn of the century pot and auger survival and no fun at … (0 comments)

houlton maine: Marketing Amd Pricing The Key Mr & Mrs Maine Real Estate Seller! - 10/18/08 02:28 AM

Ten foot marks all over the property. Unrealistic expectations. The property is not selling...and sometimes a seller has a light bulb come on. "Hey..maybe the place is priced too low..that's why it is not selling." If you over price a property, it sits there. It gains shelf life where folks that see the place wonder..hmmmm...must be something wrong with the place, its not selling. Maybe lack of marketing and hefty pricing or both are the reason despite whatever the real estate market climate is. Price your property fairly with the help of a trained, experienced REALTOR. Sytematically hammer out a consistent, … (0 comments)

houlton maine: Right Now..Are You Where You Need To Be, Long To Be On The Planet? - 09/28/08 01:12 AM

Most of us are brought up thinking there is a big world out there, that as a young whipper snapper you are going to set that world on fire. You have lots to contribute and the issue is only where and when you move right? Your parents help in the push from the family nest and support you mentally and financially in the transition from the homestead you grew up in to the trek in the wild blue yonder. My advice for teenagers is to heed what their parents, teachers and community mentors tell them but to also factor … (0 comments)

houlton maine: Maine Kids Managing Money...Starts In The Potato Fields Of Aroostook County! - 09/24/08 12:18 AM

Would you pay $75 dollars of your own hard earned money as a 15 year old for a pair of Abercrombie & Fitch pants? You know, the ones with distressed look, pre-made holes, faded, cool with all the buckles and snaps/straps? You can hear the wheels of a Maine teenager turning when he/she is contemplating spending hard earn potato harvest money as they rifle thru the rack at an factory outlet store in Freeport. It is refreshing to hear them mutter "heck with that...I'm going to keep looking Dad...let's hit another store". Because money is hard earned working long hours … (2 comments)
