Hunt Valley, MD

We Had An Impromtu Open House at

1 Clipping Tree Lane-Greencroft-Hunt Valley 21030

When I have scheduled showings at one of my listings, I will set up an impromptu open house. That's what we did on Sunday.

We had lots of visitors at 1 Clipping Tree Lane in Greencroft to see this exciting custom built brick, stone and cedar five bedroom two story contemporary. This 2.15 acre lot has the right combination of lawn, landscaping and wooded areas.

Six skylights and loads of over sized Pella windows allow light to shine into this custom Griffith-Brilhart home with high ceilings. This home has it all from the three door side loading garage to the gourmet kitchen with an abundant amount of cherry cabinets. Offered at $649,944

Agents, please let me know when your buyers would like to view this contemporary beaty. You will be honored!

Directions: I-83 to Shawan Rd > Turn right onto Cuba Road (Enter the private community of Greencroft) Right onto Greencroft Lane> Right on 1 Clipping Tree Lane. Look for this OPEN HOUSE SIGN.

Being featured as the Open House Master by Realtor Magazine, I still feel the traditional open house is more beneficial for the agent than for the seller. I really enjoy doing unusual Open Houses...Opens that bring attention to the property like these:

Distressed Luxury: Is It Part of Your Business?

The fastest growing sector of distressed properties in the U.S. is the luxury market. We've been saying this for some time now, but a recent article in The New York Times titled "Biggest Defaulters on Mortgages Are the Rich" just reaffirmed our stance. NYT teamed up with CoreLogic to find that more than one in seven homeowners with loans in excess of a million dollars are seriously delinquent. Not one in seven mortgages, but one in seven homeowners. This interesting distinction (check out their graph) draws a light on how current economic conditions (troubled mortgages, unemployment, underemployment, medical bills, relocation, etc.) are affecting different demographics. Where some real estate agents might believe the luxury market is unapproachable or that the rich have different problems from everyone else, this proves that there is abundant opportunity to help distressed homeowners in any tax bracket.

Unfortunately, the report also suggested the prevalence of stragic defaults among the well-to-do, dumping properties "just as they would any sour investment."

"The rich are different: they are more ruthless," said Sam Khater, CoreLogic's senior economist.

Perhaps this is true. But is this a reason for agents not to help? Is this a reason for agents not to offer up services, or educate these homeowners on other, perhaps more beneficial options? Absolutely not!

I am here to help
