As we close out the year of 2008 many say that it was a terrible year for real estate, the stock market, and jobs. Not to make light of any of the true hardships that were experienced, which my family was not exempt, yet in the closing hours of 2008 I can't help but feel very blessed. Blessed to have food for the table,a roof over our head, and a loving family. Please allow me the grace to share where I gain my peace for living in this ever-changing world.

green county wisconsin: Do You Do Doorknobs? - 12/22/08 03:08 AM

Do you do doorknobs? In this world of high tec marketing, let me suggest to you some good old fashioned low tec promoting. You may be pleasantly surprised how this simple tool can work to gain you name exposure. Before you try this it may be a good idea to contact your local city hall to see if there are any ordinances prohibiting hangers. I also use a "Just Listed" doorknob to help your sellers neighbors know your home is on the market and they can help find you a buyer. Because would you like to have a say in … (2 comments)

green county wisconsin: Does your listing need an Edge? How about new Appliances? Heres a Tip! - 12/15/08 06:20 AM

Many homes that are sitting on the market could use new energy efficient appliances, as a selling feature in a very competitive market. Some don’t have any and would show better with appliances in place.
As you may have already realized, certain household items, including appliances, go on sale at certain times of the year. If you have the flexibility to choose when you shop when you purchase certain appliances, do so. However, you also need to do your homework, or you may be taken in by retailers who mark their prices up so they can slash them. Therefore, you … (3 comments)

green county wisconsin: Meet my neigbhors they are Udderly radiculious - 12/12/08 05:45 AM

I live in the land of cows and plows in picturesque Green County Wisconsin. These ladies are truly my neighbors. The road I live on has four active dairy farms on just about a 2 mile stretch. These ladies are both Holsteins (the black & white cows)and Brown Swiss. The Brown Swiss is where we get the chocolate milk from. In my youth we actually rode a very gentel cow named Bossy.
I hope we can have a line-up of clients like these cows at are open houses this next year. I guess the key is to serve food, it … (4 comments)

green county wisconsin: I't a Snow Day! School and the ReMax office is Closed - 12/09/08 03:27 AM

In the busyness of our adult lives it's great to have a reminder every now and again that life isn't just about closing the next deal. This photo of two of my boys having a blast on their improvised sled, reminded me of a scene from the movie "It's a Wonderful Life". This in turn made me think how very blessed I am to have a beautiful wife of 26 years and six fantastic children, a roof over our heads and food on the table. Times my be tight in the real estate market but as compared to the majority … (2 comments)

green county wisconsin: A perspective on the biggest misconception about banking and home purchasing - 12/05/08 03:49 AM

This is Steve Kundert, he is the Residential Mortgage Loan Officer at Anchor Bank in Monroe, WI. I asked Steve what he thought was the biggest misconception in banking today as it relates to home purchasing. This is what he had to say.
"One of the biggest misconceptions about banks and home purchasing in today's housing market is the banks are out of money and not providing loans. That's simply not true. The lenders ar AnchorBank work with customers every day to make sure they know how much home they can afford and what the loan process will be. In … (0 comments)

green county wisconsin: What do you see? - 11/24/08 04:05 AM

Some people when they look at this picture they see a field full of bales. Others see the large open land covered with the years first snowfall.
When I saw this field it reminded me of the real estate market. You see some would point out the foreclosures, the troubled financial institutions, and faltering stock market, represented by the hay bales in this photo.
I see and I hope you see the large open land covered by the thin snow as the even greater opportunity hidden under the surface for buyers to get the home of their dreams. With a … (1 comments)

green county wisconsin: 2nd try at that fall picture down my street - 11/01/08 03:25 AM
Here is that great fall picture that has come and gone from my neighborhood. Seasons is one of the things I love about this part of the country. Things are continually changing  just like the real estate market. People ask me when should I buy or should I just sit it out until the spring? My response to that is an old saying " a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush". Meaning we know that housing prices are lower, the supply is up, and the interest rates are down. If you have the resources to buy  your … (0 comments)
