                                       And Who Says The Pascack Valley Market Is Slow..Ain't So!!
Today is Saturday, January 11, and I had to wake up early so I could meet clients at 9 A.M. to revisit my listing in Montvale..this is the second visit, and the buyers were very interested.  We spent an hour looking at the home, and then I rushed to meet my second appointment of the day, a young and lovely couple from NYC who are looking for a Colonial in the Pascack Valley.  We looked at three homes in Montvale, and discussed Montvale Schools, transportation options to NYC, and a quick … (0 comments)

                                               Productive Pricing in the Pascack Valley
Although many homes in the Pascack Valley are selling below asking price, the key to pricing is often appreciated by intelligent buyers.  I have recently had the experience with three of my beautiful listings, where each sold either at full asking price or over asking price, in this same market where many homes are sitting on the market.  The key is in pricing a home agressively, so that the buyer perceives good value, while the Seller has a comfort level that the price is fair, and not undermined by what we call "bottom feeders", those … (0 comments)

                                  A Pascack Valley New Year Open House Overflows with Buyers!
This past Sunday I brought along a book to read, since all the newspapers were predicting a very slow start to the New Year Real Estate Market.  Instead, I found not a moment to sit down.  We were deuluged with 15 groups of buyers, each enthralled with the home, and excited to be out looking at homes.  Was I hallucinating, or was this irdeed January 2008? 
The "R" word  not withstanding, the sense of excitement and upbeat attitude was very much in the air.  Having been in this business for the … (0 comments)

                                                    Holidays in the Pascack Valley
The beauty of Thanksgiving is gone, and the Holiday Season is upon us in the the Pascack Valley.  Decorations abound, and homes are decorated with beautiful lights and wreaths.
Today, at sundown, the festive Holiday of Chanukah has begun.  Families are lighting candles , singing songs, and the aroma of hot latkes (potato pancakes)  is in the air.  For eight days, the candles will be lit at sundown, increasing in number until all eight candles glow with the beauty of the Holiday. 
I wish all a sweet and festive Chanukah, and a joyous Holiday Season.

Cold Temperatures, Snow, and Lots of Folks Shopping for a Home in Pascack Valley!
Today I had the pleasure of hosting an Open House at 641 Debchar Court in River Vale, a new listing I have the opportunity to offer to the public.  The weather was less than opportune..the streets were snow covered, and the temperatures were indeed quite frigid!  I was anticipating getting lots of work done on my palm, since I was sure the weather would keep the buyers at home.
Much to my surprise, we had 6 groups of visitors in a two hour period of time, on this snowy and … (0 comments)
