Anyone attending the Pumpkin Land Festival can watch as hay artists build their original sculptures from bales of hay this upcoming weekend.  The finished sculptures will remain on display through October 30, 2011.  This is the only hay sculpting event in Northern New Jersey. There is only a maximum of 12 teams allowed so make sure you are registered early!  Each team can have up to 10 sculptors and will be allowed up to 20 bales of hay.  Judging will begin on Sunday at 3 pm and the winners announced by 4 pm.  So bring the family and head out for a weekend of fun to the Heaven Hill Farm on 451 Route 94 in Vernon, NJ.

SOLD: Lakefront Homes for Sale in Vernon NJ - Residences or Vacation Properties Yesterday my "blog buyers" closed on 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bathroom home for sale in Vernon NJ.  Listed at $325,000, the sale price was $290,000 with no seller concessions other than a home warranty.  With the 6 month average list-to-sale-price ratio at 93% for Vernon NJ, I was pleased that negotiations resulted in an 89% ratio for this deal!   While a finished, walkout basement added appeal to this property, you can clearly see the most significant feature: lakefront!  Like many area homes in lake communities, this Contemporary could have been a full-time residence but the sellers had used it as a vacation property.   What stunned me during the final walkthrough was the condition in which the the sellers, Mr. an...

  Hotel Condos for Sale – Considering buying at the Appalachian Hotel, Minerals Resort, Black Creek Sanctuary or Grand Cascades Lodge at Crystal Springs?   Particularly during ski season at Mountain Creek in Vernon and golf season in Sussex County NJ, I get many calls from potential buyers of these fully-furnished hotel condos that make great vacation purchases.  Owners of condos in these resort hotels can opt to participate in the rental program, so many interested parties hope these will “pay for themselves” or be wonderful investments.  There are some critical aspects that all must investigate before deciding to purchase a condo for sale at the Appalachian, Minerals, Black Creek or Grand Cascades Lodge – and the answers may vary based on the specific hotel!   Mortgage – A HUGE factor...

Minerals Resort is a lovely and popular vacation spot in Sussex County NJ - about 50 miles from New York City. Even on this off-season weekend, the hotel was fully occupied. The delightful indoor and outdoor pools, spa, fitness center, indoor tennis courts, handball, basketball, sauna and steam room make this a great getaway. Only skiing at Mountain Creek is seasonal! Several of these Vernon NJ condos are for sale.   For information on the optional rental pool that owners may join, see RealtorIrene Blogs: Short Sale - Minerals Resort Hotel and Spa - Vernon Vacation or Ski Condo - Income-Producing Sussex County NJ real estate for sale.   Just today following checkout time, I showed a couple from New York City Minerals Resort condos for sale and we wrote up an offer on one!

Given the great Sussex County NJ ski season, I'm fielding countless questions from potential buyers of Great Gorge Village condos. Some of these homes for sale are Short Sales or Foreclosures. This neighborhood is nestled at Mountain Creek ski resort - a plus - and located within the same complex as Minerals Resort & Spa, I have a Short Sale listed. No wonder so many folks are considering vacation homes for sale in Sussex County!   Back in April 2009, I posted some Great Gorge Village market data that received many, many views. As my current potential buyers deserve an update, I figured I'd one again share with all! Whether you're working with me or even another real estate agent, I believe you should have up-to-date information upon which to base your decisions.   My data and analysis...

Given the number of real estate deals on which I'm currently working in Vernon NJ, I thought it would be interesting for both home sellers and buyer to have an overview of 2009 market data for this Sussex County NJ area. The following include the very popular sections of Highland Lakes and Great Gorge Village, as well as the Vernon portion of Scenic Lakes NJ. Many of my potential home buyers looking in Vernon NJ are seeking vacation properties, either a ski condo or a lake community home. Despite what some think about a lack of lookers during the winter, I'm showing Vernon's well-priced homes for sale without a slowdown! Well-priced being the key to buyer's interest... I've based the following Vernon NJ market report graphs on GSMLS data: "Info. deemed RELIABLE but not GUARANTEED."     ...

I could pretend this is my way of being a little greener this year.  I could say it is due to watching my very talented niece, Nicole Ryu, dance as Clara in NJ Ballet's The Nutcracker at the Papermill Playhouse. Because I've been baking holiday breads for my Sussex County NJ real estate clients. But Santa's elves are watching and recording all fibs. The truth is I haven't written a single Christmas card because I've been working on many real estate transactions around Sussex County! Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus and there are deals being done right now. I have a big closing on Dec. 29. Just signed new listing paperwork this week.  All good things but I'm just not going to get to those cards right now, so: Makes me yearn for the custom when I lived in Europe of sending greeting c...

My series on NJ vacation homes and posts pertaining to Highland Lakes have sparked a lot of interest. Many looking for a vacation getaway in Sussex County live far away. Although I'm always glad to personally introduce potential buyers to real estate close to ski slopes and mountain lakes, I've decided to share my new vacation map guide to Highland Lakes NJ. This area is very convient to Mountain Creek ski slopes and other area amenities such as Minerals Resort and Spa. While the Highland Lakes Country Club and Community Association posts some great info online, I needed a visual that shows boat docks and beaches with lifeguards (although not in December). HLCC kindly provided a basic map of Highland Lakes, Vernon NJ that I could tweak and dot with a color code. Now I have a great (copy...

One couple seeking a vacation or getaway property in a lovely Sussex County NJ lake community are the happy new owners of this great foreclosure in Highland Lakes, Vernon, NJ. Yes, they have lots of painting to do but that doesn't diminish their joy. A Highland Lakes home has been on their dream list for quite a few year.  There were multiple offers on this Sussex County NJ REO owned by Freddie Mac and lots of question marks. At the time the offers were received, there were no power lines to the home. I was still juggling bids from electricians.  Getting power meant multiple visits from Vernon Township building inspectors. With electricity, we were able to turn on the well pump.  Oops! All the pipes and the boiler had burst from freezing while the house sat abandoned. Multiple bids late...

This morning was the scheduled inspection on the home for sale at 12 High Crest Drive, Scenic Lakes-Vernon NJ. While I normally opt to be present at inspections, a final walk-through at a different listing of mine prevented that.  With my seller's consent, I was going to get things rolling and then leave. As the listing agent for this Sussex County house for sale, I had not meet the buyers. They are from a distant area of the Garden State; their agent from the adjacent county. The Mrs. was at work but I met the delightful husband.  This gentleman explained he'd been using Google to learn more about life in Sussex County in general and Vernon in particular - before making an offer on my listing. He kept finding my posts on Sussex County NJ real estate and lifestyle! What a wonderful comp...

Update Sept. 19 - This Sussex County NJ foreclosed home for sale attracted a huge amount of interest and multiple offers. Freddie Mac/HomeSteps has accepted one and kept another as a backup.

 July 26 Update - The new owners of this vacation property in Sussex County NJ have finished renovations. They invited me for a peek at their ski condo near Mountian Creek.  Furniture is about to be delivered so the getaway property will be ready for them. At the time of the sale, this room had no sheet rock - floor or ceiling; a sump pump is now hidden in a tiny closet. The former owners had used this as a mountainous Sussex County getaway property from New York City. Not only did they love the after shots I forwarded, they shared that the proceeds helped make their son's bar mitzvah extra festive! End of Update   Another Win-Win Real Estate Transaction with one of the Sussex County NJ Vacation Homes!!! Today I was at a real estate closing in which I represented both the home sellers a...
