I have my website with Point2Agent NLS. I have noticed that some agents/brokers do not "handshake".Let me explain. Point2 websites allow you to list in your website properties brokered by other agencies, as long as the listing brokerage allows you to do that (handshake). It is great for you because you can attract more visitors and it is great for the seller since his/her property is advertised in multiple websites. However it seems some agents prefer not to have their clients' interest in heart and refuse to allow other agents to advertise their listings... I don't understand why some prefer not to advertise listings for free in other websites. They want the full commission. They don't want to share it with buyers' agents... but if I am a homeowner wanting to sell my house, I would pre...

 The two tables below show a snapshot for the market in DANBURY as of December 27 and December 2nd respectively. It shows the number of units per status as well as the number of days on market.As you can see the mean listing price for Single Family Homes has dropped by  1.36%. The mean listing price for new listings in December 27 was $284,950 and it was $340,000 on December 2nd.These numbers show that our local market is more stable than many in close towns. This also shows how great an opportunity it is today to purchase a new home. Interest rates are still very low compared to recent years and with a larger inventory to choose from, a buyer should be able to find that dream home today.

Let's not forget the important things in life. As I was trying to figure out how to print address labels from the business contact manager in MS Outlook so I could send out my Christmas cards, I came across this quote on a card from a colleague."People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel!" ~ Maya AngelouTake a few minutes to slow down if you are moving too fast, speed up if you are moving too slow and make sure your loved ones know how much they mean to you. In our business as with many, relationships are critical to our success and people really do remember how we make them feel. Focus on the important stuff especially at this busy time of year.Enjoy a happy and safe holiday season!

The distribution of the current inventory in Norwalk as of December 2, 2007 is shown below:The next table shows the total number of available units in Danbury, the average Days on the Market - DOM, and the Median Listing Price - MLP for each type of property and each status.As you can see, the highest Median Listing Price for Single Family units is found under the status Reduced Price, and the lowest Median Listing Price can be seen for those with accepted offers - CTS. Maybe some of those properties under Reduced Price still will need to come down to hopefully become CTS. New Listings show a MLP lower than those for CTS and ACTIVE properties.I will not comment on the renewed single family since statistically one property is significant NOT significant in the analysis.The largest propor...

In last week's snapshot we can see that 72.75% are currently active (no offers yet). New listings still showed a listing price ($367,450) above those that already have a contract ($359,000) but below the average Median Listing Prices for this week or $371,659.Those with the lowest prices are Continue-to-Show or Back-on-Market confirming that the current seller needs to adjust his/her prices to adjust to what the market is willing to pay for existing available properties.

The weekly snapshot last week showed a total of 333 units (ACTIVE plus Sale Pending), with an Average Median Price of $318,310 (The Average Median Price was calculated as the sum of the product of Nr. of units times the median price for each status divided by the total number of units, so I could have a parameter to compare week by week how prices are changing).This week, we can see that the total number of units went to 321, and the Avg. Median Price to $296,662. This is a 6.8% reduction, and 288 active listings (all af the status shown except "Sale Pending") versus 292 last week.

Are both fixed-rate and adjustable mortgage loans available? What is the interest rate? How long can I "lock-in" the financing at the current interest rate? Is a float down lock available in case rates drop after I have locked in? What are the other fees a lender may charge me in conjunction with my loan? Are funds for a second mortgage available? On adjustable loans: - How often will the interest rate be adjusted? - Is there a maximum limit on each rate change? - How often will the monthly payment be adjusted? - Is there a ceiling on payment adjustments? - Can the term of the loan be extended? - What is the maximum rate that can be charged over the life of the loan? - Is there any potential for negative amortization? Is there a pre-payment penalty clause? This involves extra charges f...

  We saw some interesting results in sales of Condominiums in Norwalk, Danbury and Stamford:As oposed to what happened with Single Family properties in Stamford and Norwalk last month, the number of condo units sold in Sept. 2007 was lower than one year ago for these three towns. (Danbury showed the largest difference).Prices, however, were higher this year than in 2006 for condos sold in Norwalk and Stamford.
