Who is Stu? - "Rock Star to be, a grocery store worker for now; cool dude who  knows wrong from right". in 'I am Stu Pitt', Good vs. Evil is the basis of the story in my most basic description, but that's because I'm not Stu Pitt.

THE EVER-CHANGING STATUS OF TITLEWhat is title insurance?Title insurance offers you information on the status of the title to land before you buy - and protection against claims that may affect the title after you buy. Here's how it works: Before your real estate transaction closes, the public records are searched to find all related official documents. These documents are then examined for their effect, and form the basis of the title insurance policy.The examination reveals the current status of ownership and encumbrances, and it shows the current record owner, based on a careful evaluation of all records. In addition, the record shows the current limitations on that owner's property rights, such as outstanding mortgages and utility easements. A buyer or lender knows that some of thes...

Home Owners and especially Home Sellers should consider grieving their property taxes. If your home is on the market now or you are considering putting your home on the market, you should speak with the folks at All Island Tax Grievance, they can perform a FREE-No Obligation analysis to see if you have a case. Q. WHAT IS A TAX GRIEVANCE? A. A tax grievance is a complaint filed against a town's assessed value on a particular parcel of property based upon comparable sales. The town places a value on every property. ie - $600,000 - if we can prove your home is worth less than that value, we will accept your grievance. If there are sales in your area that are equal and above that value, we will send you a letter stating that, in our opinion, you have no case. If a neighbor has a similar ho...

Every so often I receive a call or an email from a consumer in regards to one of my listings and the ‘offering price” (List Price) as compared to the value or "Zestimate" they saw posted on Zillow. I tell them that while I believe Zillow is a useful site, I feel that they're lacking when it comes to home value estimates. I go on to say that they can only 'Guesstimate' based on collected data, and that this collected data often does not truly account for Location and all the wonderful attributes or positives one neighborhood has over another. If you want to get a more accurate estimate of a home’s values ask the listing agent for some ‘Comps’ (comparable properties that have sold in the area). If you have a question about the value of a home that interests you please call, text or email ...

  The Home Buyer Tax Credit in Huntington New York Suffolk County     The Home Buyer Tax Credit program is soon coming to an end..Seize the moment!!    The Feds are standing by you with this incentive, but not for much longer.   Take advantage of this opportunity.  Yes, most of you who are searching for a home, know that there is a tax credit being offered...    BUT HOW DOES that HOME BUYER TAX CREDIT ACTUALLY WORK???   The home buyer tax credit is like a gift certificate that you can use to pay your taxes…it  reduces your income tax bill on a dollar to dollar basis… So, JUST IMAGINE this…You finished eating at IRS Restaurant and paid your bill.  Some time later, you receive an IRS Restaurant gift certificate.  As usual, in order to use this gift certificate, you would need to go back t...

Danny DeVito At Bottles And Cases In Huntington Long Island As some of you know, my son collects celebrity autographs. Danny DeVito was at Bottles and Cases in Huntington Long Island promoting his new liqueur. We got there at 11:45 a.m. and Danny DeVito started taking pictures with everyone at 1 p.m. until 4. You had to purchase 1 bottle that was already signed. It only cost just under 20.00 I figured my son could go up first and I would take a picture of them together but since he is under the drinking age, his bodyguard said I had to go up with him which made sense. As I approached them, Danny said to my son, "where's your Muther" and started laughing. So, my son and I took a picture with Danny DeVito. He is a very, very nice man. We are waiting for the link the photographer it going ...
