What Financial Preparations Should I Make Before Applying For A Mortgage in Hoboken New Jersey? Getting a mortgage isn’t an easy thing to do. Before a lender will put down tens of hundreds of thousands of dollars, it wants to know that the borrower can handle the loan so that it will get paid back. to this end, there are three things that a potential homebuyer can do to prepare for the mortgage approval process. Managing Debts For many homebuyers, managing their credit score is the biggest challenge. Mortgage lenders like buyers with strong credit. While getting strong credit usually isn’t something that can be done overnight, paying bills on time, all of the time can help to build a positive profile. Using as little credit as possible is also helpful, since high utilization of existing... 08/11/2014

Is Feng Shui Relevant to the Real Estate Market? I received a call and was asked an interesting question, " Is Feng Shui Relevant to the Real Estate Market."  My response, Absolutely and it's a very good idea for Real Estate Agents and Brokers to at least learn the foundations of Feng Shui.  Understanding the key principles and why people follow this life style will give you insights into what their expectations are when utilizing Feng Shui for moving into a home and understand who to market the service to more efficiently. Collaborating with a Feng Shui Expert when needed is a great resource. A Feng Shui Expert could help enhance the presentation of Home Staging assessment (game plan before or after moving in), or give your client the gift of a Full Feng Shui consultation or Blessing c... 02/13/2014

Everyone wants a good deal, especially when it comes to real estate.  I do too! What I've noticed throughout my 13 year career selling homes in Hoboken and the surrounding area is that the best deals are available when the least amount of people are buying or from properties that have relatively minor cosmetic issues.  For example the last financial meltdown beginning in late summer 2008 launched what may be the best opportunity to purchase a home in the last 20-30 years, maybe more.  Savvy buyers and investors were buying up properties but many would be home owners sat on the sidelines waiting for the economic outlook to improve.  It finally began to show signs of improvement in early 2011.  Buyer enthusiasm rose at the same time the inventories for homes declined and prices began to ... 08/08/2013
