Welcome to September 2010
We are at the beginning of a new month and I can't believe that the weather is still so hot! If we keep up this pace, the temperatures should be in the 60's by Halloween!
Over the past few weeks my grass has turned brown and pathetic. After mowing it over the weekend, felt as though I was just mowing dirt. I managed to make it through the large clouds of choking dirt and watery eyes and in the process, decided that my flowers are on their own. We've have had a nice summer of visual pleasure, but my water is better spent on doing my laundry.
Come on fall, I am ready for you!
This month I will turn a year older but oh so much wiser (this is the only way I can stay optimistic about my age). My only son is away at boarding school in the 10 grade, however in his absence I am making good use of my spare time and making sure buyers and sellers stay updated on the Real Estate market.
I had a great real estate week last week. Two new buyers, a closing, a listing appointment, two price reductions and the acceptance of a short sale. The activity reminds me of the old days!
* Mortgage rates are still so low for home owners, I highly suggest that if you can jump on the re-financing band wagon, don't hesitate to do so. Click on the above tab, Mortgage Lender and Patti from AMERA MORTGAGE will make sure you are well taken care of. She will walk you thourgh the mortgage process and explore your financing options or any questions you may have.
Did you know:
One in seven homeowners is past due on their mortgage or in foreclosure, according to the Mortgage bankers Association's latest report on home loan delinquencies. The report shows that mortgage delinquencies rose during the second quarter. That is up from one in eight a year ago and one in 11 two years ago. The report shows that the foreclosure epidemic continues, with millions of homes and owners still at risk. -RISMEDIA Aug 30, 2010

HOUSE STAGING...Does is work?
On July 6th, I listed a nice 3 bedroom ranch in Livonia. I had met with my sellers previously as I had walked through their home giving them a 'to do' list , (as we all know that no home is perfect). The sellers did 90% of all the suggestions I had made, inside and out. They really worked hard but the payoff was excellent. They had 6 showings in 5 days and a full price offer came in after being on the market only 5 days!!!
We closed on this deal last Friday and my sellers are now soaking up the Florida sunshine!
It is not one thing that sells a house in any market, it is the combination of a realtor who knows what they are doing, sellers who are willing to work for results and pricing it 'right' out of the box! . VOILA!
You may alo check out this link; www.expertrealestatetips.net for more ideas on Staging and other real estate related topics.
Please give me a call if I can set you up with an email list of homes in the areas you are interested in living. Don't miss out on the great buying opportunities in your market!
The best compliment I can receive is your referrals. I strive to make the home selling and buying process as smooth and as enjoyable as possible. I truely appreciate you passing my name along to your family and friends who are in need of my services.
I am always content with what happens; for I know that what God chooses is better than what I choose. -Epictetus
