Reality Check - Aug 10 06:36 AM
  How many people have you given a reality check to recently? With the current market conditions if someone wants to market their home at a price that you feel is to high to sell do you take them on a tour of homes?
  Sometimes sellers need to view what is available in the price range that they feel would be the correct price to market their home at. When they own a 3 bedroom 1 ...

Unusual Open House - Aug 06 06:06 AM
  I met a gentleman a one of my open houses this weekend that asked me a question I have been asked before.
  Will your clients be willing to do a lease option?
 I probed for his motivation and it seems his home in the Columbus Ohio area has been on the market since this past September. He is being relocated to the Cincinnati area and his wife and children are tired of staying in Columbus.
 I had ...

The Builders are switching gears! - Jul 06 07:53 AM
  In my area there has been a lot of new construction. New homes were starting at 280,000 and going up into the luxury class and were selling well a year ago. Now with all the builder incentives it is showing that they are in a tight market.
  Builder incentives are as much as no payments until January 2008 on market homes and agent incentives as much as a cruise for 2 with airfare on Princess lines.
Here ...

New Construction Feature Question - Sep 19 11:01 AM
I have a builder that is preparing to put a market home up. The question that I would other professionals to answer is on the counters do your buyers prefer Granite or do they recognize what Quartzite is?
Also what is the general feeling on Venetian bronze fixtures or Brushed Platinum?
Thank you for your help in advance.

This month there have been 3 foreclosures filed on homes in the ...

But don't despair if ...

How to Merge into the Express Lane to Your Property - Jun 17 02:27 PM

Here I am trying to drive to an appointment- dead stop- just idling in the express lane on eastbound I-275 - going nowhere. A thought crossed my mind about how many of today's sellers must feel the same way when they try to sell their house. They whip the property into good shape, complete the paperwork, sign is in the yard, lock box on the door and.......nothing. Dead stop, no activity- nada. Just like ...

Another Great Thing About My Home Town- West Chester, OH - Oct 18 09:14 PM
I was just having a phone chat with a client of mine who always has many many plates spinning at the same time.  She has had several businesses of her own over the years, and is currently running two of them.  One of them is a coffee shop in one of the local hospitals.  Now, the local Ford plant here has recently gotten rid of a number of their employees, and my client's niece was one ...
