The beginning of 2012 has been very bullish, with sales almost as frequent as houses coming into market and keeping inventory lean.  Click Pictures for More Images if Available

As an agent with David Realty Group in Westfield, NJ, I have ironically been working with 3 buyers this week who perpetually lowball every offer. Family #1 - are searching for Westfield homes - Upon walking into a house today that we were visiting for the first time at 670K, they said what should we bid -  600K? I told them I'd have to see it first and after seeing it, I would need to run the comparables. Regardless of how much time I've spent educating each buyer on how the real estate market "works", they continue to bid lowball offers. I would imagine that at some point, 2 of the 3 families will realize that we continually lose our bids and they are still without a home and that perhaps the method I am suggesting is the correct one. The 3rd family  - are searching for Springfield ho...

  Original Price: $1.3 Million / Sold at $695,000There's a great saying in the real estate business. To succeed in life, you want to be:The First ChildThe Second SpouseThe Third RealtorAnd like with most sayings, there is some truth in that statement, as agents who pick up listings after sellers have made major mistakes will attest.But We Want More MoneyWhen the average seller sits down to interview real estate agents, it's easy to get caught up in the excitement over choosing a sales price. More money means more financial opportunities for the homeowner. Perhaps it means the seller can afford to buy a more expensive home, help pay for her child's college education or take that greatly overdue vacation. Unfortunately, uninformed sellers often choose the listing agent who suggests the hi...

On January 22, the Sound Station in Westfield was destroyed in a fire. Owners Bob Larsen and Liz Walsh sold rare music finds and albums by local artists as well as hosting live shows. Rumor has it that the couple will open their doors again in a new spot in Westfield but renovations are expensive. The community is hosting a life benefit on Friday, February 3rd. Supporters of the Sound Station have coordinated a concert called  “Backpack Superheroes present Sound Station Benefit Show” to be held at the Stanley Cup Bar & Grill, 1410 East Elizabeth Ave. in Linden starting at 9 pm. Ten bands will perform until 3 am. Admission is $5 at the door but additional donations are encouraged. Another benefit concert will be held on April 21st at  The Crossroads in Garwood, NJ.

Westfield Builder Wins Statewide Award I wanted to pass the new brief along because I think it is SO important to recognise professionals succeding in their business. So many of my clients have suffered and thrown money down the drain with unqualfied contractos and builders.  I have not personally worked with Michael Robert Construction but I have seen their work.  I was unaware until I read his article that they also work on Green Projects, which is close to my heart. Kudos to You Michael Robert Construction.  By John Celock | Email the author Michael Robert Construction, a Westfield based home construction company owned by Michael Mroz, won an award and was a finalist for another during the Community Builders and Remodelers Association of New Jersey awards dinnert last month.

   New Jersey Monthly Magazine Names Westfield the best medium-sized town (population 30,000-69,999) in N.J.In addition to grabbing #1 ranking in the population 30,000-69,999 group, Westfield took #12 in the list of the Garden State’s 566 municipalities. “The municipalities that performed best in this year’s rankings were generally the more affluent towns of northern and central New Jersey,” says New Jersey Monthly Editor Ken Schlager. “In difficult economic times, these towns tend to have the resources needed to hold the line on property tax increases, maintain school performance and protect their citizens against crime. This in turn makes the towns more desirable to homebuyers, thus boosting home values.” The 2011 list of New Jersey’s Top 100 Towns was compiled by independent research...

  Let's say we own an egg store, selling hen's eggs, quail eggs, organic eggs and Brontosaurus eggs, ranging in price from a few dollars a dozen to $1 million per egg.   In 2007 we sold a bunch of Brontosaurus eggs and a healthy plethora of the rest.  We hit an historic high for average price, median price, and total unit and dollar volume.   In 2011 we sold a single Brontosaurus egg and a decent plethora of the rest.  Volume was off plain and simple.  What's more complex is calculating the change in value of a gram of egg protein. Because the number of sales at the top of the range was way off, and because the values at the top were off, the mean and median prices of eggs were dramatically down.  But these measures are skewed by the distribution of sales within the price range. So how...

Condo Fact of the day A condominium association is often elected to handle repairs and administrative work related to the common areas. Normally, each unit owner pays fees for common maintenance. The association holds an insurance policy covering the jointly owned areas, while individual owners carry insurance for the interior components of their units.
