Home Buyers are so confused these days! And who can blame them! Mortgage Rules changing everyday, tax credits (do we qualify?), can I use the money for down payment? closing costs? Whew

That's why we've teamed up with Rand Mortgage, Hudson Abstract Title companies to try and answer their questions. Home Buyers Seminars have been drawing nice crowds in our area. People have questions and like talking face-to-face with someone instead of someone on the phone. Join us this sat Aug 8, from 12-3pm @ our newest project Sunrise Hills in Middletown, NY.

It's time to make your move. As one of the leading real estate brokers in the Hudson Valley for almost 25 years, we have seen these ups and downs in the market before, and we know that real estate goes in cycles. We believe that this market provides great opportunities for savvy buyers: rates are at all-time lows, inventory is high, and prices have come down significantly for over three years. This is a great place to live, and over the long-term homes in our area provide a tremendous investment opportunity.


So we're willing to make you this guarantee:
If you buy a home with a Prudential Rand Realty agent by March 31, 2009, and that
home goes down in value by the time you sell it, we will re-list it for free.

If you would like to see any of the properties on our website, www.prudentialrandrealty.com, or would like more information about our new promotion, please feel free to contact me!

I've always taught my children to give back to the community. My oldest son has been a volunteer firemen since the age of 16. Today at 24, he has been certified as a firefighter, ice rescue diver, and serves as a trustee. Volunteers are very important to our towns as most communities in Orange County, NY rely on volunteers to keep their community's running; Fire and EMT's are are most precious commodities. Yesterday, Warwick honored our retiring Fire Chief Bill DiMartini as well as all of the firemen in our town and county. Walking down Main Street the first thing you see is the American Flag hanging between two fire ladders. 38 Fire Companies, marching bands and bagpipers showed up to March down Main Street on a perfect Fall Day. Congratulations for a job well done!

...to see one of my listings. I happens to be a spec house in a 47 lot subdivision. When an appointment is logged in by our office, the listing agent receives an email notification. So when I received the email, 3 days ago, I noticed that the agent wasn't from this area. So I tried calling him. I offered to meet him there w/his client so I could take them through the sales center and show them our site plan and what we offer in our packages. For 3 days I've been leaving vm's on his cell phone. Even sent him an email asking him to register his clients. Doesn't have the time to return a phone call or hit reply? So today I called his office. And this is classic....are you ready...the admin never heard of him! She had to check Showing Desk to see if he was even associated with their office; and to her surprise he was! So we figured it out that he was a part time agent.....and he thinks he's gonna walk into a new development and sell a million dollar home without contacting the listing agent???

One of the points that I stress when working with a new buyer or taking a new listing is that I'm a full time agent. I make appointments, keep appointments and network with other agents; especially if they're outside of my local area. I can always be reached on my cell phone or email. Wouldn't you want to be as educated about a property or a project before you tried to sell it? In this market we need all of the help we can get; so why wouldn't you enlist the help of other agents; especially if they offer it to you. And if they don't offer it, Ask! We're here to help our clients make informed decisions, how can you do that when you don't know what you're talking about!

PS--Guess I can stand on my head waiting for the feedback sheet to be filled out !
