Dear Listing Agent: Hi there, I'm one of the 20,000 or so agents in the Chicagoland area. I list and sell homes in St. Charles, Geneva, Batavia and Wayne. I have a new buyer who might like your listing in Mill Creek, Geneva.  So why I am writing to you today? My buyer sent me a list of homes to see this weekend, as well as a description of a yellow house in a particular neighborhood they saw when they were out driving around. It couldn't find it in the mls so I drove over there to solve this mystery. I found the house, so I pulled out my Droid phone to bookmark it on the bairdwarner.com mobile app and....nope, no house there. Pulled out my iPad and checked on the Realtor.com mobile app...nothing there, either.  I wrote down the address and headed back to the office. I pulled up the hous... 02/20/2012

If your are thinking of buying or selling a home in Geneva, you are going to get a lot of advice from a lot of different people. Everyone from the ice cream scooper at Grahams to your dentist to your Zumba class instructor at the Geneva Park District has a real estate story to tell. The real estate market in Geneva is pretty healthy: in 2011 prices and sales stayed consistent with 2010 numbers. But the market hasn't recovered sufficiently to make all worries just disappear. The average market time for a home in Geneva is about 220 days, but many houses remain unsold after months. Some buyers of Geneva homes find their hopes dashed after a home doesn't appraise for contract price or a lender doesn't approve a short sale after months of waiting.  So who should you trust to guide you in bu... 01/11/2012

Since there are many perfectly nice homes for sale in Geneva, a home buyer should also make sure that a home is "buyable" before they fall in love. Here are just some of the tough questions you should ask before writing an offer for a home in Geneva IL. 1) Can the homeowner pay off the mortgage and the closing costs at the expected selling price? 2) If the home is a short sale:- how many loans and liens are recorded against the property?- are the property taxes paid, sold or delinquent?- is... 11/27/2011

Are Open Houses a Good Idea? Real estate agents have a wide range of opinions about Open Houses. Some think of them as a shady tactic to snap up unsuspecting home buyers, while others claim they couldn’t run their business without holding Open Houses for their listings. In some markets, subdivisions and neighborhoods, Open Houses are a respectable way to promote the home to the public. In large subdivisions like Fox Mill or Mill Creek, sellers like Open Houses because they can attract potential buyers into our western suburbs of Chicago. Open Houses funnel a number of showings into a single time frame when the home looks it’s best for a few hours. Sellers with small children or pets like to encourage buyers to come at a time that works for the family and when the listing agent can show ... 11/13/2011

“We think maybe we should pull the house off the market and wait until next year…”.  Showings and new contracts have dropped off.  In my communities of St. Charles, Geneva and Batavia in Chicago’s western suburbs the buyer activity has definitely slowed down. Some sellers think that they’ll make more money in the Spring. So is pulling the listing off the market a good idea? Probably not. There are home buyers at any time of the year, regardless of the weather, playoff schedules, or interest rates. People change jobs, have babies, need to upsize, downsize, or otherwise make major changes in their lives. There are the “opportunity buyers” who have deliberately waited until this time of year for a good deal. Sellers who are serious about selling should carefully evaluate how their home st... 11/08/2011
