Bah, Bah, Bah! I walked the dog last night and on the way back up the drive, noticed a chewed up box dragged halfway down the stoop. When I got near enough to ID the vicitm, it was the Harry & David dozen pears a dear friend sends annually.  3 left unviolated, cardboard scraps everywhere, they even tasted the foam. and like the worst party guests they bit into more pears than they could finish, leaving a few barely sample premium fruits around the yard. Can't these rodents stick to their cornucopea of nuts and bulbs in our suburb? Or order their own premium pears? Is it just Westfield, or are you finding your local wildlife turning into brazenlife and uncouthlife too? Happy Holidays to all 12/15/2012

Westfield NJ is one of Union County’s most desirable places to live.  With a great school system, excellent public safety and easy access to New York City, Westfield, NJ is a great place to call home.   We’re happy to report that we recently closed a Chase Short Sale in Westfield NJ.  What made this such a rewarding short sale is that not only did the Buyer purchase the home at a great price, but the Seller was able to walk away with an enormous $23,000 seller incentive fee.   Chase proactively reached out to the borrower and informed him that he was eligible for a Cooperative Short Sale.  A Chase Cooperative Short Sale is a great program, which includes reduced documentation requirements and a streamlined approval process.       However, we also requested to determine if the homeowner ... 10/18/2012

 Morris County Staging can be Many Things! Lately I’ve discovered a whole new source of income in the world of home staging. A potential client, Tamra, called me and said  she and her family would be moving from their NYC apartment to their new home in Westfield, NJ.  Tamra asked if I could design a few of their rooms using the furniture and accessories they already had. I told her no problem, it would be my pleasure!  They were having movers drop off everything, leaving it in the middle of the rooms for the next day when I arrived. They already had plenty of furniture and accessories and just needed guidance on how to translate all their furnishings from their NY apartment to their new, very charming home in the beautiful town of Westfield, NJ. No consult, inventory, shopping or MLS ph... 08/06/2012

      Union County residents can enjoy a picnic in one of many lovely parks such as Mindowaskin Park in Westfield. Team Zuhl spent a great morning there this week – the pond has dozens of geese and fountains. Meandering walking trails move through peaceful 12.6 acre park, and the park boasts a playground for the younger set.   The next time we’re there, we’re going to the Municipal Building next door to see the map with all of the memorial trees that have been planted throughout the park from 1940 through the 1960s.  The gazebo’s pathway was renovated two years ago and includes engraved bricks.  The Friends of Mindowaskin Park seek donations for repair and beautification projects. 06/26/2012

The Westfield Market feels great, with sales volume up and lots of bidding wars.  When you crunch the numbers,  the happy volume is premised in part on very attractive pricing, slightly below last year--and I have measured it from multiple angles.  Westfield owner are making their houses very attractive and thereby achieving their moving objectives.  Here is Under Contract and Sold Activity for Last 30 Days 06/25/2012

I am so gratefull for this news.  I wish Zillow would show me the algorithm they deploy to make their assertions.  I think they keep getting better, even if their just raised zestimate of my house is still 16% below a recent appraisal. The more important point is that Westfield NJ is brightening, and I am thankful for that.   06/17/2012

   vsAs an agent with the David Realty Group of Westfield NJ, I met someone who owns a home in Westfield NJ today who had their home on the market in the past but it did not sell. She engaged in this conversation with me once she found out I was a realtor with David Realty Group who sells Westfield Homes. The woman kept referring to how her home was underpriced when it was on the market next to all of the other homes in Westfield on her street. But none of the homes on her street has sold in recent years so where was she getting her information? Zillow. I then shared with her that Zillow did not have feet, and had never been in any home nor did Zillow have a brain b/c Zillow was not a person. I asked if her past agent had shared comparables with her and she said, “yes, that too”. But it... 04/29/2012

Our Inventory is up to 153, or 1.4% of our 11,000 homes in town.  In the last 30 days we have seen 39 properties go under contract.  That makes a hot absorption rate of 3.92%.

Here are the sales 04/25/2012

For an idea of how deceptive average and median numbers can be in indicating home values: here's a true story: Town wide Westfield sales average prices show 2011 finishing 13% below 2007. (2006 was the same) My landscaper made his debut and only foray into new home construction in 2007.  He sold the house for $999K. He was later called back to finish the basement (I assign a market value of $40K, now matter how much is spent down there). The owner is a professional decorator with fantastic taste who made every room in the house look bigger and shaplier than they were when the house was born.  Maybe the lights and window treatments (which an appriaser will ignore) are worth $20K??? So if median meant everyone, and if you naively considered improvements recoupable at 100%. . . you'd say 9... 04/16/2012
