The process goes on and on and people, many times, find themselves in a home that is too big for them when they become empty nesters AND are nearing or at retirement age, which could trigger the question of, Should we downsize? (Boy, that was a run-on sentence) The article below shows some of the wins a downsizer could see by doing so.If you are considering downsizing the first thing to do is contact your local Real Estate Professional and start the conversation.How Homeowners Win When They Downsize   Downsizing has long been a popular option when homeowners reach retirement age.

However, there's one step that shouldn’t be missed. Home staging can make your home compelling and attract buyers. In this article, we'll explore why home staging is important and the benefits it brings to the table.The Importance of Home StagingWhen selling a home, the goal is to create a space that appeals to potential buyers and makes them feel at home. Home staging is a powerful tool that can help achieve this goal by transforming the property into an attractive and welcoming space that resonates with buyers.

One of the more important steps in a Real Estate purchase is to take a final walk through the property you're purchasing. I've had buyer clients ask why so I share a story with them, a story about a closing in my own neighborhood. Caveat: This is a true story. I was not involved with the transaction but my colleague was.On the morning of the closing, the buyers and their agent arrived at the property for the final walkthrough inspection. The agent explained the importance of viewing the property, one last time especially since the property would be empty. They walked through the property and were astonished by what they found.First, the stove, which the buyers really liked, had been removed and replaced with a much cheaper and chintzy-looking model. The P&S had stated the existing stove...

Why do new houses cost more than existing (old) ones? And is the premium worth it?Here are the major things that I see making the cost of new homes higher than their used counterparts.First the good news: EVERYTHING IS NEW ON A NEW HOME! This is obvious but it's the #1 reason for new home cost. Everything from the foundation and frame, roofing and paint, siding and landscaping, electrical, mechanical & plumbing, kitchen, bathrooms and flooring - everything is brand-spanking new. New homes even have that new-house smell!What do you get for it being new? Typically you get a one-year builder warranty included in your purchase. This means if anything goes wrong with your new home in the first 12 months, the builder will come out and take care of it. This is a really nice feature. Despite al...

No, not this Patriot's Day  Yes, this Patriots' Day......which commemorates the Battles of Lexington and Concord, which took place on April 19, 1775. The Revolutionary War for our independence was on.Here's a nice short article from the Farmer's Almanac that 'splains the whole story and why we have the Boston Marathon on Patriots' Day. Farmer's Almanac Article So, today, in Massachusetts it's a holiday. It is not a Federal Holiday. Thus, State offices, Municipal offices, Public libraries, and Schools are closed. Everything else is business as usual.So, while you're out showing and listing homes, take some time to reflect on the significance of this day in April 248 years ago. Please Pray for our nation. GOD BLESS AMERICA
