NEED HELP FINDING A HOME AND DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START?
DID YOU KNOW THAT USING THE SERVICES OF A REALTOR WILL COST YOU NOTHING? That's right - nada, zip, zero and zilch! You get the advantages of the realtors experience in contract negotiations, neighborhood knowledge, mortgage programs, and a whole list of other skills wrapped into a nice package!
Just to mention a recent survey, a full 76% of home buyers purchased their home through a real estate agent. Real estate professionals are relied upon to have experience in every aspect of a typical home purchase. The home buyer ultimately wants the agent to help the buyer find the right property to purchase (50%) and many more concerns.
1) Help find the right home to purchase.
2) Help buyer negotiate the terms of the sale.
3) Determine what comparable homes are selling for.
4) Help with price negotiations.
5) Help with paperwork.
6) Help determine how much a buyer can afford to spend on a home.
7) Help find and arrange financing.
A real estate agent, such as myself, Lyn Sims, has all the available properties for sale listed in one place (MLS) for you to look at. No hopping around from site to site! Most listings now have virtual tours and multiple interior pictures so you can get a complete feel for the homes qualities and room sizes. Another important step that must be taken first is to get pre-qualified for a loan BEFORE you begin your home search! I can also help with any questions that you might have in the mortgage/loan area also because I've been thru the process before!
I look forward to working with you on finding your new home.
My Bio and Qualifications can be found here for you to check out. I've been working in the area for over 25 years and can answer all your questions about a neighborhood that you might be interested in.
I'm excited and I want to start looking now Lyn - take me to the MLS search!

Streamwood Illinois Homes for Sale - April 2009 ©2009 TheBlogDog.net and Lyn Sims
Diligently trying to keep both buyers and sellers informed on the local Bloomingdale Illinois housing 
market has been my goal for many years. This market update gives you the number of homes that have sold by price range so you get a feel for the current sales activity. Which is up by the way!
75% over the last quarter!
Is it the $8000 Tax Credit? Is it the lower interest rates? Or maybe just great values in the area?
How can you use this information if you are a buyer? The price range that you are thinking of purchasing in, is it one of the more active price areas of the market? It would be telling you that there are a lot of other buyers also in your price range all looking for that deal!
How can this information help you if you are a seller? If you are planning on selling your home soon, you can see which price ranges are the most active. Clearly the price range above $300,000 has been non-existent and rarely sales have occurred. You might have to plan accordingly for extra market time. As a seller, you have to be sure that your home's curb appeal and presentation is ‘spot on’ in a market like this. Possibly some extra updates and staging might be required before you put your home on the market. Do you know what the average market time is for your price range?
What about foreclosures? Of those 22 total sales only 4 were foreclosures and 0 were short sales. Most of those foreclosures were under the $250,000 price. Probably a lot less than what you expected right?

Bloomingdale Illinois Market Update by Price Range ©2009 Lyn Sims - TheBlogDog.net
This is the Months Supply of Inventory for Streamwood IL Single Family Homes from June 2007 to June 2009.
This is also called the 'Conversion Rate' or how long and how much inventory is on the market in a particular town. Obviously, the higher the rate, the longer the market time for a home in that particular community.
Does your agent know the Conversion Rate and will they share that information with you?
Yes that one month is correct with 39.8 months supply of homes on the market. That is obviously over 3 years! Gulp!
