Buyers Agent: Should You Have One For Your Real Estate Transaction? Part 1
We get a few comments on the blog, but we get more emails. People are shy I guess, or what they have to say doesn’t pertain to the blog. That’s ok, because we like getting emails.
We have been getting a lot of emails about property showings lately. Readers can search for their new home online [...]

Dane County Real Estate Days On Market

So Hot Out, Yet I See Snow?!?
As a Realtor I spend a good deal of time on a computer. I look for property on the MLS for my buyers, I read and write email, I fill out contracts, I read and write blogs, etc. etc. So I might have missed a snowstorm here in Madison.
There can not be any other explanation for the pictures [...]

Football Schedules and Recipe Cards
I understand why some consumers don’t feel they should pay 6% or 7% commission on the sale of a home. I understand why some buyers are frustrated with the process when they can find alot of info online. This was reinforced last week with huge impact after a training class I attened last week.
I wrote about the [...]

Super Motivated Seller
This home has two for sale signs! The MLS shows that it is for sale by one of brokers that has a sign in the yard. Not sure why the other for sale yard sign is there. If I’m a buyer I would be really confused about what phone number to call.
