In the recent past as everyone is well aware the market was so HOT that buyers could barely have anytime to look and think about the home they just saw before someone else made an offer. Thus creating a lot of purchases made through haste decisions and later regretting the purchase. Now with the market being what it is Buyers have not only the time to think but their choice of homes. With plenty of homes being on short sales and foreclosed the bulders are practically slashing all their prices making it a buyers dream. My suggestion to the buyer is find yourself a good Realtor who is knowledgable not only of the area but of the bargain prices builders are providing. You see the builders are throwing specials to realtors everyday just to get rid of their overstocked inventories. So don't ...

 FAQ: When should I stage my house? Answer: When you require maximum resale value and want to reduce your time on the market. Is your house is being viewed but there are no offers?   Is your home vacant? Potential buyers fail to imagine their furnishing in the home. *Statistics show a vacant  home takes twice as long to sell than a furnished home.   FAQ: Is staging tax deductible? Answer: YES! Staging services can be considered an advertising fee (See IRS Publication 523) and these selling expenses include commissions, advertising fees*, legal fees and loan charges paid by the seller. *Staging a home for re-sale is considered an Advertising fee.  There are no time limits on the advertising Fees related to the sale for the IRS. It is important to note that if a property does not sell and...

Each month I pick a property that I  think is a great buy. My good deal of the month, is a newer, riverfront condominium listed for $359,900.This lovely, gated community (Venetian Bay) was built in 2004 by M.H. Williams construction, one of Brevard´s premier construction companies, and has 2159 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.  The views are spectacular and the unit has many features including custom cabinets, granite countertops, and 10 foot ceilings with crown molding.Here is why I like this property-The condo is beautiful, the views across the river are some of the best I have ever seen and it is undervalued compared to comparable properties in other parts of the county.  Besides, it is being sold for less than the owner paid for the property!I think this condo is still a...

Palm Bay has quite an incredible range of both indoor and outdoor recreational opportunities in addition to these big Atlantic beaches, including sailing, water-skiing, fishing, biking and tennis, golf, hiking, horseback riding and surfing, walking and birding.With 169 parks, 23 golf courses, and 30 marinas throughout the Area, and not to mention several colleges and universities located nearby and offering diverse educational opportunities, you won’t be bored.Oh, and one more thing. A quirky and quite wonderful distinction that sets Palm Bay apart from a lot of the Space Coast is its seemingly infinite variety of ethnic foods.If dining out is something you like to do, restaurant choices range from Middle Eastern to Jamaican to Italian and French and much more. And if that’s not enough,...

Palm Bay is a growing community of approximately 100,000 that sits just south of Melbourne and in the Southeast portion of Brevard County or , “The Space Coast.” It includes large tracts of land both east and west of I-95, some frontage on the Indian River Lagoon (which is the ICW or Intracoastal Waterway), and on the east shades into adjoining (and currently more rural) residential areas of Malabar, Grant, and Micco extending south to Sebastian.The whole area is basically new and is growing at a rapid pace. It’s a young city with an average age of 37 and an average household income over $40,000. New home construction at affordable prices is popping up everywhere. As of August 2005 there are some new homes and condos for under $200,000.Palm Bay represents not just good real Estate value...

New rate-hike requests show insurance special session was a flat-out failure.  As soon as the legislature's January special session on insurance was over, it became increasingly obvious it was a sham.Since then, despite promises from Gov, Charlie Crist that rates would drop by 25%, they've been rising, not falling.When insurers claimed costs were soaring because  reinsurance cost so much, lawmakers in the session added $12 billion in Floridians' money to a fund for cheap reinsurance.So what happened?  After doubling and tripling rates, at least 13 insurers so far have told the Office of Insurance Regulation they want increases so big they easily negate the average 12% cuts made earlier.If approved, Auto-Owners Insurance, for example, would get a 35% increase, and Sentry Insurance and as...

With the onset of our hot summer season, most of us will be replacing our air conditioner filters monthly.  Today I stumbled upon an air filter that is made from 100% recycled soda bottles.  The manufacturer sayse it is twice as effective as an ordinary filter at catching dirt, but is at least twice as efficient energy-wise than other "high-performance" filters. These filters have an ASHRAE rating of MERV 7, almost as good as the expensive white pleated filters most of us are used to buying.  I found these filters on sale, apparently discontinued, at Walmart for the low price of $1.50 each.If you don't change your filters monthly here's the result, higih airflow resistance due to build up of dirt, pet hair, etc, translates directly into higher electric bills.  "A 50% reduction in airflo...

It seems that "interior decorating" is no longer the method of choice for decorating model homes.  A recent article in our local newspaper, highlighted Mercedes Homes and their newly renovated models.  The article stated several times that the homes were "staged" to appeal to buyers.  Woo hoo!  We have finally made it.  Realtors and sellers will read the word "staged" and finally connect the dots.  They will see the beautiful pictures and realize that their homes can look like that too, thanks to "staging".  They all will, at long last, understand what it is we do, when we tell them "we stage homes for sale".

Here's to everyone having a safe and happy Memorial Day.  And if you are prop shopping, Rooms to Go has a sweet, no payments, no interest deal going.  I purchased a sofa there today for $350, nice by the way, and took advantage of the offer.  I won't have to make a payment till sometime in 2009.  Now, you can't beat the price and you can't beat the deal!  You just gotta love it when those sweet deals come our way.Terry Haugen - STAGE it RIGHT!

For the remainder of my life nothing will seem more like home to me than my grandmother's (Yaya) kitchen.  To be more accurate, my Yaya's pantry.  To walk by her pantry made you feel comforted, but to open it up and release a lifetime of secret spices would overwhelm me with a deep sense that all in the world was well.  I now have a pantry of my own and Lord willing when I have grandkids my pantry will have a life of its own also; to inspire the next generation.  I keep some spices in there, cereals, and lots of other edibles to season the wood well.There so many other smells that turn a house into a home.  My wife makes a wonderful banana spice bread, I can smell it before I open the door when I come home.  Cookies have to be a universally accepted smell, I have never heard anyone ever...

Can any business have too many advertising signs? I for one think not. We need to take advantage of all advertising venues, especially ones that garner large amounts of exposure. Recently on AR we have discussed the pro's and con's of vehicle advertising. Everyone else does it, why shouldn't we? I currently have three vehicle signs, both sides and the back. Someone on AR suggested the use of a yard sign as well. Because some of us often use rented vans and trucks to transport our staging supplies, which do not visually promote our businesses while we are staging a home. I recently went to my sign people and had this one done for under $20. Now when I'm staging and my vehicle is at home, I have a way of letting passersby know that home staging is underway and by whom.  I chose the one wi...
