This past Saturday Arrowhead Lake had one of its two annual yard sales (Memorial Day and Labor Day weekend). Also this Saturday was the first time they had the yard sale all weekend, normally they just have it on Saturday. you pay $5.00, they give you a blue Arrowhead balloon you tie it in front of your house and you are official. The rain kept the on-lookers and bargain shoppers down to a minimum. WE sold a golf cart and a marine battery so we did ok. I had 3 Adirondack chairs that were in not so good shape for three dollars. Sunday I had them free and 4 hours later they were gone.  For more events here is Arrowheads website http://www.arrowheadca.org/outside_home.asp For more info on real estate in the Poconos visit our website http://www.jeffrickertteam.com/      Keller Williams Real... 05/26/2009

In case anyone hasn't heard Arrowhead Lakes Community, after being instructed by the Department of Environmental Protection, has issued a halt on all central sewer hookups in the community until permitting from previous sewer hookups and the running of the main sewer lines have come into proper compliance. Apparently all the ducks were not in order when this whole sewer project got started some 7 -8 years ago. This will not affect anyone who already has permitting in place to build but no future permits will be given to build with connection to central sewer until further notice. After speaking to interim general manager, Charlie Hozempa, he felt that given what is involved with the entire process it will probably a good year before anyone can start to hook up once again.

As many of you have probably heard  by now, FHA is going to allow the Tax Credit to be used as a down payment on the purchase of a new home.  That is pretty exciting except that FHA is not a lender so the lenders would have to put this into practice.    So that leaves us with a couple of questions:   1.  Who is going to front the money to the borrowers, will they charge a fee, any interest? 2.  How will the borrower get the money? 3.  How long will it take to get the money?   None of these questions have been answered as of this time.  So although this is a good idea, it may or may not become a reality.       Keller Williams Real Estate Heather Rickert 601 Bethlehem PikeBuilding B, Suite 100Montgomeryville, PA 18936Main Office: 215-631-1900Direct: 215-850-9640 · Contact Form 05/15/2009
