What is happening in a bizzarre real estate market? Why are we reducing prices on listings while prices on solds are increasing?
Why is Wake County one fundamentally one of the most stable markets in America?
Why are agents in Wake County acting like they are in Detroit?
Find out by reading the ChangingStreets.com blog on Raleigh and Cary real estate. We tell it like it is, we practice in Wake County, the countries best market & the worlds worst, Flint and Detroit Michigan, but we sell over 500 homes a year no matter what.
That is street smarts.
The greatest home shopping tool yet. ChangingStreets.com text system.
The latest addition to the worlds funnest and most productive real estate company! Our buyer clients can now text us and get information on any house in North Carolina, Hawaii and Michigan! ANY HOUSE! Ok actually only about 95% but way more than anyone else is offering and this is all ChangingStreets.com branded!
How it works is even cooler. In North Carolina the client would text NC "the address" to 25_27 and they will get a text with basic info (so far pretty standard) and a link to a web page that is specific to thier operating system that will show all pics, room sizes, BUYER agent info and more. The listing agent or appropriate buyer agent is notified immediately by text or email someone needs assistance, they can then make sure the client as all the information they need, schedule showings, talk open houses, or similar properties. Beats the heck out of a sun bleached flyer.
Contact the nearest ChangingStreets.com office to get your text code.
This is available accross our platform to home buyers in Metro Flint Michigan, Oakland County Michigan, Kalamazoo Michigan and Greater Raleigh North Carolina. ChangingStreets.com is the first brand to bring a multiple state text solution to its brokers, why because we flat out rock and love what we do.
This will complement our entire agent suite of tools, our direct mail portal, scalable blog and web platforms and of course our agent training. Clients can get information when they want it, how they want it and count on an intelligent agent to follow through...that is smart, easy, sane.
These are the types of innovations that allow our agents to successfully assist 27.8 clients a year reach their goals. No other brand in the country has this professional of a number.
Just Listed in Highcroft Subdivision in West Cary North Carolina is 5712 Highcroft Drive. This is the latest best deal in West Cary; 4635 square feet, six bedrooms, four full baths, walk out basement, home is nears one of Wake Counties best elementary schools, Highcroft Drive Elementary School. This is just a super buy, seller paid $629,000 in 2007 home is severly under priced due to 540 construction (home is 300 feet from 540 through buffer). At $118 a sq ft in one of West Cary premier subdivisions this is worth the gamble that 540 will be very low impact.
There are amazing deals in Highcroft right now, there is no fundamental reason why prices are low, great homes, great location, the market is just uneasy. A great time to get a great deal. Check out the homes for sale in Highcroft, and call me if you would like to see the homes in Highcroft or any West Cary development.

I love this house. It was a screaming deal in June of 2008 when it went on the market, so much so I wrote this blog.
Now it is $40,000 cheaper and listed at per square foot than the neighborhood sells for on average... a perfect storm for buyers. The home is four bedrooms, three baths, finished attic, on a fantastic cul de sac, fenced yard and backs up to one of Wake County's highest performing elementary schools...for $435,000 or $119 a sq ft. A screaming deal.
502 Millsfield Drive, Cary, NC 27519. Click to see photos, this house has an amazing kitchen.
How this home compares to the rest of the West Cary Market
The arrow on that sign should be pointing slightly upward, that is the way sales of homes in Apex North Carolina are heading so far in 2010.
The Apex real estate market has remained almost bullet proof in 2010. Prices are up in almost all zip codes and definitely in the overall market, foreclosures in Apex are almost non-existent, unit sales are up double digits...good times.
There is no doubt not everyone is feeling the positive vibes there are still six months supply of homes and those near the new 540 are feeling downward pricing pressure.
Read my blog to get the exact sales numbers, average prices, and comparisons: Apex Home Sales May 2010 .

I love working in West Cary! Working with buyers and sellers in this environment is tough, but a piece of cake compared to the midwest, ChangingStreets.com makes real estate fun, again.
I love working on Real Estate in West Cary, NC area. My travels take me all over the country but my assistant and I excell in West Cary, it is where we know the most about the market and test our new solutions. It is usually the first market to test our new products. I love working with buyers and have a great set of skills to help them find their new home, new build or previously owned I can help them find what they are looking for in West Cary! And have a blast doing it!
As the very proud Founder and President of ChangingStreets.com I take my job of making the consumer (home buyers and sellers) experience smarter, easier, saner every day. I love working with home owners, want to be home owners and banks everyday, it makes my night job of running and advising our 5 locations easier! Last year we expanded a great deal, and we are making friends and happy clients all over, we look forward to an exciting year this year spreading smart, easy, sane real estate!
We are very proud to have been voted "Best Real Estate Company" and "Favorite Green Company" by the readers of the Flint Journal in our first market, Flint Michigan were we currently service over 500 clients a year.
We are putting our money and effort where everyone else just talks, we are building the real estate company of the future or at least what we think it looks like from the structure and financial models we have built. Last year I built a new model for the big company, now we are straight entrepenuer, making square pieces fit, fabricating solutions out of readily avialable resources, just working smarter.
We will open four new market between now and December 23, 2010, on a platform we think is the future of real estate, this includes space planning marketing, branding, training, multiple consumer touch points and hopefully laughing! We currently serve Southeast Michigan (Flint & Metro Detroit) Kalamazoo, Michigan, Raleigh, North Carolina and Maui, Hawaii.
I am now working on finding real estates inner peace! The perfect combination of home, financing and information that a client can count on through out the transaction.
By no fault of its own the housing industry is a huge mass of ineffiency, disfunction and in a few cases corruption. My goal has always been to create the ultimate consumer and company experience.
Create a company that delivers five star service to its clients. Create a company environment in which agents can thrive beyond all expectations.
Create a comany that efficently delivers Real Estate services seemlessly from initial client contact to ever! Create a company that brings back the old school definition of value.
Create a company that will endure. Create a company that is scalable in any business environment... or help someone else create it; we all need somebody!
Making agents more efficient & profitable than they ever thought possible. Making home buyers & sellers very happy!
A clear and consice company message, and an environment will evolve on how that message is communicated. Earning and creating trust through out all delivery platforms is crucial to operating in todays business environment...every transaction should be Smart>Easy>Sane.
Understanding Integrity and Honesty in the work environment including office, social media and blogging. Not lip service but true honesty and the power it has to make business happen in a very efficient and profitable manner. Consumers deserve a great experience while buying or selling a home, service is a given, create an experience.
An alternative to the old hire more agents to sell more theory of management. I have recruited a lot of top talent in my career, but the only way that new relationship makes sense is if the new company can make their business GROW! There are many new ways to serve clients in a unique and valuable way in relation to your competition....I enjoy finding and implementing them.
I am looking for operating partners to utilize our unbelieble system and tools in their market. Our turnkey consumer focused real estate brokerages are the best in the industry for small and medium size brokers. No upfront fees! We believe in long term value driven relationships. We are interested in all markets.
We are putting our money where our mouth is! Anyone can consult, blog or talk about the future of Real Estate, we our building what we think it looks like...four new markets in two states, five boards in the next 160 days.
