Why use a Realtor? I can sell it on my own, right? Put up a sign, hold a few open houses, post an ad in the paper.... AND BAM! SOLD!! right? Not in todays market.

Bel Air, Maryland What a Pain in the Gas! It's slowly inching up each and every day and it's not this season's hemline. It's the price of gas, and today's price is 2 cents more than yesterday's. Moreover, it's being reported that it'll inch even higher, reaching a peak this summer. Lucky me, I get the pleasure of paying 20 cents more than most--for premium gas.  It's almost too much pleasure for one person to have! It's also really brought home the fact that niche-marketing is the best thing since sliced bread. I'm referring everything outside of my area and smiling all the way to the bank (which is only 3.14 miles away). That residual income is the best. True--It's less than a full commission, but it's steady. And it's a win-win for all sides; the client is getting the best service pos... 05/02/2007

Bel Air, Maryland is a great place to live and if you're contemplating a move here, I'd love to show you the Bel Air I know and love. Bel Air is located in Harford County and is northeast of Baltimore.  It's a commute of about 40 minutes.  Located just off Interstate 95, Bel Air has a small town feel yet is the "heart of Harford"; It's the government seat of the County.  Bel Air schools are among the top in the state and the parks, recreation, and other amenities available to families are plentiful and convenient. Bel Air is close to the Harford County towns of Abingdon, Aberdeen, Belcamp/Riverside, Churchville, Forest Hill, Fallston, and Edgewood -- all areas I'm very familiar with. Drop me a quick line and I'll get a relocation information packet out to you ASAP--it's packed with grea... 05/01/2007

How Well Does Your Home Show? - Part II: An Open Letter To a Home Seller Dear Seller, Your home's for sale. How well does it show? That old adage that a picture's worth a thousand words is never more true than in today's competitive marketplace. With over 70% of home buyers starting their search on the Internet, why not market your home by showcasing its the many unique highlights? There's a lot of competition out there and, if you're like me, you're sick and tired of hearing about the high inventory of homes and the almost cavalier attitude of buyers who expect so much more from sellers today versus just a year ago. The reality of today's real estate market is that there are 14 other homes in your same development that are for sale, and they are exactly like yours - or so it may seem. ... 04/20/2007

A Home Warranty is different from Homeowners' insurance. While a Home Warranty provides coverage for items in a home that routinely need servicing (for example, air conditioning, ductwork, plumbing, appliances) -- Homeowners' Insurance provides coverage in the event of damage to a home (for example, fire damage).   Many sellers provide a Home Warranty for their buyers. In the event that your seller doesn't, I'd recommend that you buy one yourself. It's worth the extra few hundred spent at closing to have some peace of mind. If your air conditioning breaks down in mid August, it won't break you to pay a $75 deductible to have it fixed or replaced.   If you're like the majority of homebuyers and you are financing your home (ie. you didn't hit the Lotto so you're not paying in cash), your ... 04/20/2007

Bel Air, Maryland - Lanette Branch, Realtor Who'da thunk I'd ever use the words Bel Air and skyline in the same sentence? I mean, really, considering the fact that Bel Air has no skyline, it all seems too incongruous. But there they are, in the same sentence, and still Bel Air is without a skyline - but not for long.   Apparently, town officials are in the midst of planning for Bel Air, Maryland's first 5-story building in the downtown district. Woo-hoo! No, really - whoo-hoo! This is a big deal for Bel Air residents. Just as we're getting used to the idea of the newly re-vamped downtown Bel Air, complete with an impressive Visitor's Center, here comes the news about a 5-story building.
