Hi folks. I originally posted this article in October of 2006. The comments on the original post (VERY HEATED DEBATE ALERT)are quite interesting. At the time, people just couldn't believe that appraisers were making downward adjustments in their appraisals for a declining market. Do you believe i...

I wrote this article in July of 2006. In light of where we are at today I'd say my concerns were valid. *********************************** No money? No problem. Negotiated a deal on one of my listings yesterday. The Buyer is purchasing using 100% financing with the Seller paying closing costs. M...

Tutas Towne Realty, Inc is looking for a bailout. I don't need $700,000,000,000.00 but could use about $120 in order to fill up my Ford Expedition's gas tank. I will use this bailout to purchase assets(gas) and can assure you that in the future these assets will increase in value and you will be ...

Hi folks. Have you ever had such a bad experience, working with another REALTOR(R), that you swore you would never work with them again? I know I have. It can be difficult but we must remember that our job is to help Buyers and Sellers achieve their objectives. It's tempting to not show a REALTOR...

Hi folks. Many times over the years I have heard from Sellers wondering why their home hasn't sold. The usual comment is "it's priced right". Well is it really? My experience has been that any property will sell if the price is right. What is the "Right Price" in today's market? Is it "Market Va...
