Need 4 easy tips for all rooms for selling your White Lake home for more money? Staging and preparing to sell your Orchard Lake home is very important if you want top dollar and you want it to sell quicker. •Take away all the extra tables, chairs, and furniture. Anything that you do not need, remove it or store it. Make each room look more spacious. In most small rooms there shouldn't be more than 3 or 4 pieces of furniture. •Before showings begin, go around the house and check all your lamps, ceiling fans and other light fixtures to be sure the lights are working. Replace any old, dimming bulbs with new ones to brighten up the room. Home buyers love bright rooms. Dark rooms appear smaller! So put in brighter bulbs and be sure to turn all the lights on when showing your White Lake home.... 09/01/2011

A White Lake home inspection is important to do whether it is a brand new house or an old house.  YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE AN HOME INSPECTION DONE and DON'T LET just a relative do it.  And don't let the cheapest guy do it. My story about that is:  My client was very frugal.  So he thought the list of 10 inspection companies prices I gave him were too high.  So he went on Craig's List and found himself a home inspector.  The guy showed up about 20 minutes late.  He came in raggedy jeans with several large holes in them. He didn't inspect the roof or the attic.  He didn't even check each individual electrical plug.  I guess I could go on for a while about what he didn't inspect.  He had no builder's license, and he had no training in home inspections.  But yet my client hired him because he... 08/15/2011

After a brief respite at the end of last year, when things looked like they had stabilized and might be turning around, median home sale values in the Township of White Lake are again headed down and is inventory on the market. White Lake continues to suffer a high percentage of distressed home sales, with distressed sales making up almost 70% of all sales in March. So far this year, there have been 55 homes sell at an average SEV multiplier of 1.5992.

Home sale prices also averaged about $75/Sq Ft, which isn't all that bad when compared with other local markets. White Lake is a fairly populous suburb and t... 04/01/2011

The White Lake Michigan market had a brief period of apparent recovery in median sold home prices in mid-year last year; but, by November, sold home prices started down again and continue to slide. The brief run-up in sold prices did bring out more sellers for a while and Inventory actually rose, which is unusual for this area; however, that, too, started dropping again at year end and contues downward. So far in 2011, there have been 49 homes sell above $20K (which is my arbitrary cut-off point for measuring the market). They have averaged $75/Sq Ft so far in 2001 and are selling for an average of 1.5896 times their SEV (State Equilized Value, which is supposed to be 1/2 of the assessed market value). That means that they are selling for just under 80% of their assessed values.Obviousl... 03/20/2011

Here is an update on Oakland County lake front foreclosures.  I received an email from a lady today requesting listings for Oakland Lakefront homes under $150,000. She had recently missed buying a home because she bid too low. It was a lakefront home that was listed at $66,000.  The lady had bid $83,000 and still didn't win it. Here was my explanation to her on what she should be doing.  That was quite a deal.  You very seldom see a Oakland County lake home priced under a $100,000.  If it is it is usually in poor shape, or on a smaller lake.  A lakefront home on an bigger all sports lake is worth at least $125,000 even in bad shape. I see many bad lakefront homes at $150,000.  So many people forget about what the house is really worth and just look at the list price.  This Oakland Count... 05/12/2010
