Brett Favre Needs A New Home and Hoboken Would Be Just Perfect Dear Brett, We are thrilled you've decided to join the Jets. We need you. Badly. We hear that you don't like big cities much. So I've got the perfect solution for you. Buy a condo in Hoboken. Aside from being near to the Meadowlands, Hoboken has lots to offer. It's a friendly place like Mississippi, so you'll feel comfortable here, it has great views of Manhattan, and is filled with families with small children. It has a real small town feel. You might have heard that Eli lives here. That's right, Eli Manning, star quarterback of the Superbowl Champion NY Giants - the other team in town. There have been rumors that A-Rod bought a unit (or two) at Maxwell Place. Well, I can get you a place way better than theirs. With a bette... 08/15/2008

July Hoboken Condo Sales Drop From Last Month Here are the Hoboken real estate market condo sales numbers for July. The figures are down in almost every respect. Average list price, average sales price, price per square foot and median sales price have dropped from June's numbers.

The Dabo Dilemma Revisited Last week, I discussed a problem present in the MLS in that the DABO listings were not being accurate because some agents hadn't changed the status when the properties were sold, withdrawn or expired. As a result, list of DABO's properties included old, out of date listings that weren't really under contract any longer. So last week I looked at each property with a status of DABO and manually eliminated the 'stale' ones but I've figured out a better system. Starting this week and from now on, I will include in these reports only new DABOS - that is, properties which went under contract in the prior week, as I do for sold condos and new listings. Here is the info from last Wednesday through today: Studio & 1 Bedroom Condos: 1 unit sold for an average sale price... 08/15/2008

I'd say it's not a bad Hoboken Condo market for Hoboken Sellers; there are currently 184 Condos under contract in Hoboken and there are 472 Condos available in Hoboken. So priced right you should be able to sell if that is your true goal this obviously is paired with a good motivation, up-grading in Hoboken or relocation away in Hoboken are good examples. Now while price is definitely a common denominator for a successful sale. I'd say to present you condo in the best possible light there are 3 Condo renovations that are relatively easy as...1-2-3.   1. Spice up the kitchen A minor kitchen renovation is the project that "brings the best value for the buck." Rolling on a new paint color, installing new counter tops and putting on new cabinet and drawer handles are three ideas that only t... 08/13/2008

Courtesy of Erik Jacobson   In case you didn't know it yet, there is a 24/7 Web-cam pointed at Hoboken's Pier A. It's updated every 20 minutes and has some beautiful images of NYC. People use it in different and somewhat interesting ways. Watching the sunrise over Manhattan at 5AM, or monitoring the weather in other cases. In the summer it's probably very useful to see if there is still room to throw a Frisbee or to lay out on "Hoboken Beach" as Pier A Park is dubbed by some in the summer. It will save you a trip from your Hoboken Condo or Brownstone. You can read all about it here . Pier A Web-cam was started by Erik Jacobson in June 2000...

Rates on 30-year mortgages jump sharply! Freddie Mac reports 30-year fixed rate averaged 6.63 percent this week. To read more on the report please follow the link below: Mortgage rates jump sharply I understand that most of the time it's worth to wait in a downwards real estate market, great Real Estate agents will keep a close tab on the market activity of other condos that are selling in the area and use that to provide valuable feedback so that Sellers might reposition their selling prices, as opposed to chasing the market down. There is a fine line however that divides the right price for the buyer from a wrong price for a seller that makes it worth for a seller to separate with their Hoboken condo, even in a strong buyer's market.
