JON BLANGIARDO SOLD!!

12 Village West Trail in Plymouth, MA 02360

Short Sale Opportunity + The Right Buyers = Great Family Pad


A great young family will be moving in to 12 VILLAGE WEST TRAIL as of the closing date of Monday, October 27, 2008, in a short sale approved by Indy Mac Federal Bank. This was a spectacular purchase for a new family. The home sold for $216,000 and has a really nice location in a cul-de-sac neighborhood, near amenities, and over 2/3 of an acre of land.The home was built in 1993 but as a result of being built below the water table, has had serious water issues in the basement. Thee new owners are well connected in the building industry, and have plans to fix the water issues. They've been looking for a quite a while, hoping to move in a home with space for the growing family. It has truly been a pleasure working together to accomplish this goal!

A short sale is a situation when the borrower (homeowner) owes more on the property than its current market value. In order for the sale to occur, the lender (bank) must determine that it makes more sense financially to accept a short sale, rather than foreclose on the property and deal with associated time and expenses.

After a bidding war, and the winning buyer backing out, my buyers had their offer accepted by the seller! The process from the offer to the closing took over 3 months, which seems very typical in the current market environment. At the office, we made phone calls to Indy Mac's short sale department daily, attempting to get more information about the progress of the sale on their end, and to be sure they had received all the information we had faxed over. These departments seem so backed up with short sale requests, they can barely keep up. We had to fax everything all over again at least 3 more times in the coming months because they had lost the documents!

A few other challenges came up before closing that we were able to resolve... and the closing went smoothly. Happy buyers and happy sellers are the most satisfying part of the deal.

At your service!!

FALL IN NEW ENGLAND

Well, the pool is closed down for the season, the lounge chairs put in the shed

and all the beach towels tucked away for next spring.

I love living in New England in the fall with the leaves changing, apple picking,

fresh cider, pumpkin patches and cornstalk mazes.

I wanted to share a couple of photos of the changes in my neck of the woods.

Enjoy...I know I am.

And of course...the lighthouses

The finest compliment I could ever receive is a referral from my family, friends and clients. Thank you.

Although a sometimes bitter breeze came off the water today, nothing could hamper the attitudes of the many furry friends and their frozen cold owners! It was a fantastic, humorous day with freebies, games and prizes for all on Plymouth's waterfront today! I just have to share some of the photos from today's guests, particularily the Costume Contestants. Two of my favorites...

If only I had taken "the boys" with me! Ooh, lots of doggy butt-sniffing and free Milk Bones!

The Darth Vader

and the

"Big Daddy"

And of course this post would not be complete

without a photo of "The boys" Milo and Koudi

Although they were not present today at the Fest, they will certainly be guests next year! This year's event was a huge success so here's to many more! Congratulations to the Plymouth Chamber of Commerce for a great event!

I think our Plymouth Waterfront has officially "Gone to the Dogs"
