Foreclosure

Click her for some terms on Foreclosures. 


Be cautious of short sales. They can be a good deal, but there are usually strings attached as well as emotional baggage that can be an emotional drain for the buyer. Go into it with an attitude of "if it was meant to be, then it will work out." Otherwise, you are in for a headache and disappointment.

Welcome Home!

I enjoy reading Mary Umberger's columns and this Sunday's Tribune had an interesting article about cozy homes. When showing homes to my buyer clients, appeal is mostly emotional. What is it about a house that invites you in from the moment we drive up? How does the entry appeal to the client while I fumble for the key? And when we walk inside, why does this special house instantly greet us with "Welcome! This is your new home!"
Mary's article pinpoints specific architectural details that make a home cozy and inviting. What features appeal to you? Click on the link below.
