Although I do not live anywhere near the oil rig that exploded off Louisiana, and Mississippi (and other states near there), I was watching this unfold on television. It is a tragedy of huge proportions. First there was the death of the workers on that rig. And, now the oil is leaking out of control. I get the feeling that BP Petroleum and our government really does not know how to fix this problem. The birds are already showing up covered in oil. The environment is totally at risk there and so are many people's livelihoods. There may also be an impact on shipping in that area. I am hearing that in my neck of the woods, restaurants are expecting shortages of certain fish products. The list goes on and on. Here in NJ, they were recently talking about putting up oil rigs off the coast. We really have to know the consequences before we start drilling. I think often we dive into things that we don't know how to fix sometimes. I just want to say that my heart goes out to the people in that region. I wish you good luck, and I hope that things do get better for you as quickly as possible.
I don't know about you, but I am really tired of Winter this year. I don't feel like doing anything. Usually nothing stops me from doing anything. But, I don't like being cold, and all bundled up. I am really hoping that I am not the only one that feels this way. And, although the Spring market has started, I was wondering if more people will be motivated to buy or sell. What do you think?
If you are looking for your FIRST purchase, please contact me. I have listings priced at $287,000 (a condo in the most desirable Knob Hill in Manalapan), $315,000 for the lowest priced ranch in Fleetwood Park, Hazlet, NJ - a great commuter location, near routes 35 and 36, and the Garden State Parkway, $269,000 for a 2-family house in Keansburg near route 36, and the beach. The 2nd floor of this house can be rented out to help pay the mortgage!
And, if you are not ready yet to buy, then I have a rental in Margate Co-op in Edison. This is a gated community with a swiming pool, tennis courts, and shuttle service to Metro Park Train is included all for $1,025/mo.
Please Call Me At:

Hurry, these GREAT BUYS WILL NOT BE AROUND FOREVER!
There are new signs that have gone up on Union Hill Road in Manalapan that if you go above speed limit, there is mandatory court appearance required. I have seen a number of people pulled over. So I just wanted to inform you of what's going on if you are driving in that area. MAKE SURE YOU WATCH YOUR SPEEDOMETER WHILE DRIVING ON UNION HILL ROAD. I hope this information helps you drive carefully and avoid a speeding ticket and court appearance.
Best Wishes,
Phyllis Katz, Weichert Realtors, 455 Route 9 South, Manalapan, NJ 07726
I know that Congress and the President want to come up with universal health care. And, true it is very important for people to have coverage. But another tax? Even subsidized health care benefits cost you money. I don't know anyone anymore who has totally free coverage. So you pay something up front to have the coverage, then there are deductibles that you have to pay, and not everything is covered. Now on top of that, we may have to pay an additional tax. What do you think of this? I value your comments.
I am a full time real estate professional with Weichert Realtors serving Monmouth, Ocean, and Middlesex Counties. I have lived in Manalapan Township for 24 years. My clients are my top priority!
I have lived in Manalapan Township for 24 years. I raised my 2 children here. They are both grown up, and went to the local schools, on to college and one went to law school. That is why I have a lot of time for real estate! I have been doing real estate for a number of years, and work very hard at it. I take it very seriously, and find it very gratifying when my clients achieve their goals whether buying or selling!
I have a B.A. in Psychology from the College of Staten Island, and worked for 13 years at Carter-Wallace as a Production Planner for Diagnostic Products (in both full time and consulting positions). So, as you can see, I have had several professional positions.
I service Monmouth, Ocean and Middlesex Counties. I work in all capacities as a sellers, buyer's or disclosed dual agent (if the opportunity arises). I have sold new construction, adult communities, condos, townhouses, single family houses, just to name a few of the types of real estate I have sold. I have sold in Old Bridge, Sayreville, Manalapan, Marlboro, Freehold, Freehold Boro, Howell, Jackson, Millstone, Keansburg, Port Monmouth, Leonardo, Shrewsbury Boro, and Manchester. I even had a listing in Jersey City (but that is out of my usual area).
I have received a number of Thank you cards from my clients. Here is one I received:
