Normally, this is one of the two weeks my family is on our annual FFV (Freaking Family Vacation).  I'm kind of thankful that we decided not to go this year because the weather has been nothing if not contrary.  Hot and humid or pouring rain and often both in the same day.  We dropped Max off for ...

It was a dark and dreary day... in what has been a somewhat, for the most part, delightful spring, weather-wise.  That's a lot of commas for one sentence and I have a really good friend who will tell me if that's the case (Case being one of her nicknames).  I love being corrected when it comes to...

Brandywine at Thornbury is a lovely community located at the intersection of routes 202 and 926.  You'll enjoy an easy commute to Delaware or King of Prussia, with access to tax free shopping in Delaware and the wonderful mall in King of Prussia.There is a community pool and clubhouse and lots of...

My baby graduates this coming Monday.  I've been having to let that sink in for a while now.  My baby, my little Max, is graduating on Monday.  He will be 19 in July and he will be starting his life at Temple at the same time.  He's not my little Max anymore, standing at 6 feet tall with shoulder...

My family just returned from what I would say is the best family vacation I have ever had.  We've taken a beach vacation every year since my children were born.  Usually two weeks down at the Jersey shore.  I love the beach but anyone who knows me knows the high drama of our FFV's (Freaking Famil...

I have two words for potential buyers today.  Seller's Market.  In our area, we are indeed in a seller's market with very low inventory.  A client gave me a price range, and in the West Chester Area School District there were only 13 houses that fit their needs.  Out of the 13, only 3 looked to b...

I get a lot of requests from clients to show them foreclosures.  Many people think they are a good investment.  From my point of view they can be and they can also be a nightmare.  Not only a nightmare to the buyer, but for agents who are trying to show and help a client buy one, they are strateg...

It's finally April!  After a very long and dreary winter, the sun is shining and while the spring flowers are a little slow getting here this year, I went outside today and there's one!  I'll take it... beggars can't be choosers is what my little momma always said. Soon the world will brighten up...

It's raining, it's pouring...  again.  We've had a considerable about of precipitation this year, either snow or rain and frankly, I'm getting a little tired of the color gray.  It's almost April so I am going to try to look at it that April showers will bring May flowers.   I was online last nig...

Yes, even though there is snow on the ground, it is indeed the first day of spring in Chester County.  As hard as it is to fathom Mother Nature's sense of humor, buyers are out there, wanting to look at homes.  If you're one of them and are not working with an agent, I'd be delighted to help you....
