Hey ladies, got a committed boy friend that won't make a commitment? Have that forever partner that you share the rent and bills with but won't make that last move? Then I may be able to help you. I make the home buying experience so easy with so little strain that the stubborn guy will start to think that maybe everything else he's been fearing will be just as smooth. I had a buyer for one of my listings last February that was so pleased with the ease of the purchase and excited about the move that he gave his girlfriend a HUGE diamond just minutes after entering the home coming from the closing. Just last week another one of my buyers gave his girlfriend her diamond right after they too walked into their new house together.   Thinking of buying a home? Got a partner that has made an e...

Back in May I wrote a blog about Gifts for Buyers coming from the sellers. I had a young couple that were trying to buy a home. There were some issues that came up in the inspection that would have affected the purchase of the home especially if they were addressed as inspection related issues. To overcome this we attempted to get a seller paid closing costs addendum into the contract so that the buyers could keep their cash reserves to handle the repairs and not add additional burden to the mortgage. Well, this past Monday we closed on the property, the funds, $10,000, were applied to the closing costs and now there are new first time buyers with the extra cash they will need to fix the house.   The largest item was a stand alone detached garage that was infected with bugs. When the ap...

We're into summer and the flowers are just hopping out. Our day lilies are just bursting, and every day there are new ones starting to bud.   It's like the yard is in a contest to show it's colors first and get the best of the summer sun. There should be a blaze of lilies for at least another couple of weeks. In the mean time, as if waiting for the right minute, the hydrangeas are starting their blossoms and the meiderlander roses are starting to show their colors as well. It;s a wonderful time of year, the flowers are active, the clients are active and there are a bunch of things to do outside. Enjoy the summer.
