Almost every market in Michigan has become a "Buyers' Market" and because of that I have observed some disturbing behaviors among buyers and the real estate agents that represent them. Let's set the record straight...if properties are properly priced, in good condition, and show well they will sell!  Buyers shouldn't assume that, just because they look at something one day, it will be on the market for days and weeks in the future. Secondly, Buyers' Agents need to make sure they are representing their clients to the fullest extent.  These representatives cannot assume or let their clients assume that time is not a factor in securing a property of interest.  Further they should be just as attentive to submitting offers and doing follow-up as they were in a more balanced market. This past... 02/17/2009

     I've been working on the Sale of this Home in Grandville, MI  for over 2 months now and received the dreaded call last night from the Buyer's Agent - The buyer's will no longer be able to purchase the home due to personal reasons.  They are very upset because they had found their "Dream Home".  I showed them through twice at an Open House, once by themselves and once with his parents.  They really loved this home.       It's a nice 3 bedroom ranch with a roomy living room, ceramic tile in the kitchen, dining area with wood-laminate floors and 2 baths.

Selling your prized possessions to make ends meet? My wife was getting a her hair cut from a long time beautician she has become friends with of the last 20 years. It doesn't matter if you are in a beauty shop, grocery store or getting gas....conversations turn to the economy.  Eventually if they know you are connected to real estate that topic comes up too. Her friend has known we are in real estate.  She told my wife things have started to slow down for her.  The people that were faithful clients that she could count on every two to there weeks are not once a month or even every six weeks. She said she has resorted to selling things to make ends meet.  Today she said she was going to sell her plasma!  I never gave it much thought until that people would part with some of their prize p... 11/29/2008

Understanding how to price a home is this market is, at best, challenging and difficult.  Because real estate is so local, totally local it becomes problematic for buyers, sellers and REALTORS to actually understand their market and translate the constant media attention given to real estate currently. One of the most often cited sources for tracking home prices if the NAR Median Sales Price reporting.  These figures are truly a median measure.  Each quarter they evaluate 150 metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) and translate the results into a median home price that is expressed in a dollar figure.  While this information, by nature, includes only sales in which a REALTOR participated, the numbers are very accurate since only 12% of sales in 2007 did not involve an agent or broker.

     We all know that not paying your mortgage or automobile loans on time will affect your credit score, but did you know not paying your library fines might be filtering in to hurt your credit?  While researching credit information for a client of mine, I came across this article by Liz Pulliam Weston of MSN Money:  "Wierd stuff that hurts your credit".  Not only that, unpaid traffic tickets might not only end you up in jail, your credit score can likely take a hit, too!   In this all too important age of the perfect credit score (850, by the way) and consumers needing around a 620 score to qualify for a decent mortgage, these little overlooked bills/fines could be a stumbling block if not addressed.  Do yourself and your community a favor - kindly return your books on time.  You real... 11/18/2007

Fall is such a wonderful time of year.  The cool temperatures and longer nights make it more inviting to spend some time indoors.  As I look forward to that, I also realized some of those summer chores such as cleaning out the garage and basement still need to be done.  I have an incentive to do those this weekend.  Saturday, October 27 from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM there is a scrap metal drive in Grandville.  Proceeds from the collection will go to Calvin Christian Schools.  Last year the school made $3,500.  Small items can be dropped of at Calvin Christian High School at 3750 Ivanrest Ave SW.  Larger items and full loads can be brought directly to a container located at 2359 Ivanrest SW.  This is great way to get rid of unwanted metal as well as help out a community school.  They are accept... 10/26/2007
