Water has quite the calming effect on people whether it is sitting on a deck near a river, beach, bay, creek or lake.  It is also a life long dream for people to want to purchase a home with water views.   Let's talk about how Flood Insurance can protect you and what to look for when you are searching for home.  Trust me, I'm not going to talk you out of any dream you have and especially one with water views!  It's is also one of my dreams I'm working to come true!There are different types of flood insurance and flood zones.  FEMA ( Federal Emergency Management Agency)  declares flood zones through the United States.  In the area I live in Pennsylvania the "AE" Flood Zone is when you will need to get Flood Insurance.   There are exception to rules of course but your mortgage lender will...

I don't know how 20 years has gone by, but it feels like forever since my first day of training at Weichert, Realtors Fast Track program.    I literally called my manager after the first day and told her I don't think I can do this. They gave me the big black "Doors" suitcase, tons of papers, talked about real estate terms I have never heard of, and told stories about getting homes under contract in their first week of real estate!  I was 21 years old, never rented or purchased a home and  still living at home while working at my job at a daycare to fund my new straight commission job and pay my bills.    My manager told me come to office tomorrow right after training and you will do this. A lot has changed since those early days. My mentor turned into a teammate and partnership which t...

Failing sewer lines causing major headaches for Quakertown residents - WFMZ Crumbling sewer laterals in Quakertown, along West Broad Street, are causing a financial burden to many residents.Very few property owners are aware that they are responsible for repairs to their sewer line (sewer lateral). It’s a privately-owned pipeline connecting a property to the publicly-owned main sewer line.If you are purchasing a home with public sewer, I recommend that you make an educated buying decision and pay for a sewer or septic line inspection.  The time to find out if a sewer line needs repair or replacement is BEFORE buying a home, not after the fact.

Property tax reduction will be through a "homestead or farmstead exclusion." Generally, most owner occupied homes and farms are eligible and only a primary residence is eligible for the property tax relief. To receive school property tax relief for the tax year beginning July 1, 2017 this form must be filed by March 1, 2017.  Bucks County Property Tax Relief Homestead-Farmstead Application  I read on the application that any change to your deed (including re-financing) will remove your Homestead-Farmstead status and a new application must be completed and returned for processing. If you have any questions or want to verify the status of your application,  please consult with the Bucks County assessment office at 215-348-6219.www.propertytaxestoohigh.com

A lot of people have a job transfer, move because of family reasons, or inherit a home in another state.  I have sold homes for sellers I have never met and live thousands of miles away.   There are challenges to selling a home for an out of state Seller but my goal is to make the transaction as smooth as possible. Sharing a past client testimonial with you!  Cheri is amazing and made a complicated remote sale seamless! As an out of state executor I needed to sell a house in Quakertown but could not physically be there for any part of the process. Cheri managed every step for me from getting an initial value estimate, to sourcing vendors for various  compliance and repair issues, to listing, selling and getting through escrow. Cheri knows Quakertown intimately and her expertise and pers...

As Rents rise Homeownship is harder to save for in the recent years. What if you bought a home that needs work and start learning skills? Painting is not the most exciting job but it looks damn pretty when it's done !  Yes you will hit the ceiling with the roller and make a mess. That can fixed! Get some painter tape (that blue stuff) and nice rollers and paint brushes. Don't be super cheap. A nice paint brush will make the job much easier. Wash it over and over so you can have it for years.  Paint can be expensive but good paint will last ! 1 gallon of paint will also go a long way.  Lowes and Home Depot have discount paint that wasn't mixed right. It might be just what you are looking for. Use those power tools !!!!  I love  power tools.  Typically you can purchase a whole kit saw, dr...

For Nature Lovers Haycock Township is the perfect setting. Lake Nockamixon is a state park which features trails, boating, fishing and relaxing.  There are plenty of deer to be seen.  If you like Bird watching, Sunsets, Peace and Quiet this could be your "Happy Place" The homes in the area typically sit on a private lot.  If you want to live in the woods this area in Upper Bucks County, Pennsylvania is a spot you should put on your list.  This may feel like you are living in the middle of no where but you aren't!  Quakertown is the closest town and has access the to PA Turnpike 476 that will take you into the City of Brotherly Love and to the Poconos.  Also I-78 to New York City and Harrisburg. What features are you looking for in a home?  Perhaps you can find it here ! Visit www.HomesI...
