I would highly recommend the Real Estate Guide for any local real estate professional! It has been great exposure for my business. Even in the digital age, magazine advertizing has not gone out of style. A magazine left in an office will be browsed by countless people for many months, and your ad can be seen by many of them.

Cause and effect are often confusing when discussions of economics arise. Arguments pop up, primarily blaming an upcoming recession causing the number of property sales in recent times. The flip side of the argument is that the recession is causing a drop in real estate transactions. Neither of these arguments are true simply because slowdowns occur all of the time (economic increases also happen all of the time as well).
If all of this makes you wonder if this a good time to be buying or selling real estate, please give us a call. Everyone has a different set of circumstances that need to be addressed and we can assist by answering any questions you may have, help set up a plan for a purchase or sale of property, or any other real estate issues you may wish to discuss.
He has dealt with all aspects of Real Estate during his career and can answer any question that you may have regarding your home.
Regarding real estate, we need to reject the labels of the economic swing labels and focus on the cost of owning a home. For example, if interest rates are increasing, it is likely that the prices will be reduced due to current prices being higher than the population can afford. Home sellers, guided by a professional in the market, will adjust prices that are affordable to the incomes of the people who mean to live in the area. To be sure, these adjustments are not automatic and there are lots of other factors that come into play such as employment, amenities, quality of life, and other that also change all of the time.

Real estate is an important and complex thing in our lives, but it can be one of the most rewarding things you do in your life. Let us be a part of this and obtain the results you desire. We re looking forward to speaking with you.
The real problem, if there is one, is that we like to hang labels on things which do not have solid definitions. The term ‘recession’ has this problem and causes arguments on whether there is one at all. The longest living and most used definition is as follows: ‘When the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is 20% or more below the previous quarter for more than 2 consecutive quarters, the economy has entered into a recession’. This is all well and good but ignores some situations. The most obvious one is when the economy decreases 19% for 2 consecutive quarters. I will posit that these 2 scenarios are indifferent a recession to those who are living in these economies. If we were to extend to a 3rd consecutive quarter of economic slowdown, it would be seen as a severe economic slowdown by the economists, but it would feel like a very real recession to those having to feed their families, pay the bills, and most importantly, keep their jobs.
The impact of other information channels also has an impact on the economy. In today’s culture, the media probably have the greatest impact on how people react to the economy. As this is being written, I believe that many people believe that we are currently in a recession, even though employment numbers remain solid. Of course, to those of us who remain employed do not see the causes of an economic slowdown. Things will change, of course, but only you know how you stand economically.

sale. No house is perfect and as long as you know ahead of time what needs to be done and are comfortable with the cost and possibly the ramifications, knowing about an issue before closing gives you the peace of mind before you close or often make an offer. The home inspection can give you a great starter list of what needs to be done to really make moving in that much easier. Don’t be shy about asking questions and getting a clear understanding.

I think it is important to note that even if a house needs repairs, it shouldn’t always be the cause for getting out of a
The inspection will show the positive and negative aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After an inspection you should have a much clearer understanding of the value and needs of the property.
Home inspections start at around $500 depending generally on the size of the home. I believe it’s money well spent.
Purchasing your home is one of the biggest thrills of your life, but it can also quickly become overwhelming. Whether you are buying a new or a resale home it is important that you look underneath the staging, perfect floorplan, or location and see what may be hiding that could impact your dream home and pocketbook.

I have always viewed a home inspection much like a visit to the doctor for a physical from a general practitioner, if there are any problems or concerns you are referred to a specialist such as a cardiologist. A home inspection works in a similar manner, if there is a concern about the foundation you are recommended to a structural engineer, plumbing to a plumber etc.

UNDERSTANDING HOME INSPECTIONS

The home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a home, from roof to foundation. The inspection will determine not only the present condition of the home, but also help foresee any immediate or future necessary additional costs that may go unnoticed by the untrained eye.

A standard home inspector’s report will cover the basic condition of the home’s heating system; central air conditioning system (temperature permitting); interior plumbing and electrical systems; visual of the roof, visual of the attic and insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; the foundation, basement and structural components.
Enter the home inspector. A home inspector performs a basic physical inspection of the structure and systems of your prospective home. This means that while you may love the beauty of the living room’s wood floors, your inspector can tell if the floor will truly last.
I would like to note that home inspectors are not licensed or certified by the State so do your research to make sure your inspector is qualified. I recommend that they are members of an association with certification criteria and a standard of practice such as ASHI.

5. Not only is magazine readership up, but readers spend an average of 43 minutes per use.
6. Further, those 43 minutes of attention are typically undivided.

9. Magazines are the No. 1 medium of engagement across all dimensions measured. Simmons' Multi-Media Engagement Study finds magazines continue to score significantly higher than TV or the Internet in ad receptivity and all of the other engagement dimensions, including "trustworthy" and "inspirational".
12. Magazines reach specific audiences. The only people who pick up this Real Estate magazine are people interested in real estate(buying, selling, etc.).

2. 93% of all American adults read magazines regularly.
4. Reading a magazine remains a uniquely intimate and immersive experience.
7. Magazines delivers more ad impressions that TV or Web in each half-hour period.

Without a doubt, virtual open houses lead to greater opportunities to connect with your prospects or leads because of three main reasons:
• It expands your reach: Virtual open houses no longer just serve the needs of locals who come to see the home in-person. Hosting open houses online means that your videos can be viewed without limitations of time or space. All it takes is a link to be shared out for another opportunity to be created.
• Buyers will want the option: Not everyone is interested in commuting to see a house in person for the first time. Occasionally, buyers will be more interested to vet a potential investment by first scanning it online. Whether or not social distancing enforcements are making it mandatory for you to only conduct virtual tours or not, having these be a part of your practice can help you filter out non-serious leads as it encourages only serious buyers to approach for further information.
