Why Buyers Choose Us

http://www.arnowitzproperties.com/

Buying a Home in These Challenging Times Requires Many Difficult Decisions. Make Sure Your real estate agent is a Top Local Expert.

Your home or condominium is probably the biggest purchase your family will ever make, and it involves many decisions that go beyond simply choosing one you like.

As a top real estate agent, here is how I will guide you through the entire process, from viewing homes and financing, to making sure the final contract is in your best interest:
- You will have full access to ALL homes available on the market, even listings not yet on the MLS, through my professional Florida real estate affiliations.
- My expert local knowledge of the area should be invaluable to you, not just in terms of real estate, but also schools, neighborhoods, the local economy, and more.
- Every local real estate market absolutely has its own trends and opportunities. This can vary greatly, even one neighborhood to the next. It's my job to steer you into opportunities and out of traps.
- What is the true market value of the home you are interested in? Is it priced too high? Is it a bargain that you should jump on? I help home buyers make decisions like this every day, and I'll make sure that YOU get the best value for your money.
- Negotiating with sellers can be stressful. I will help you negotiate, so that the final contract includes your best possible terms and conditions.
- You should know absolutely everything about the property you are buying! You and I will view every home or condominium that you are interested in, together. And prior to closing I will make you fully aware of any and all inspections available to you.
- Have confidence when signing documents. Contracts are full of complicated terms and clauses that can greatly affect your future life in your new home. I will give you the full benefit of my real estate knowledge and experience.

Let me represent your best interests in your search for a new home in the area. While you can see a million homes on the web, actually buying your home is another matter entirely. Buyers beware!

Pricing your home in a buyers market

It's tough being the seller in a buyer's market. But you can improve your odds with the right research.

In many cases, making a smart deal and getting the best price come down to studying your market and being an educated seller.

You've got to know more than you would have if you'd sold a year ago. If you want to protect yourself, you have to become knowledgeable.

Recognize that housing markets are local:
Home prices are like the weather -- very different in different areas. In many markets, home prices have actually gone up from last year, says Dick Gaylord, president of the National Association of Realtors. In addition, demand will change depending on the price range and even the neighborhood.

What you need to know:
What's the demand for a house like yours in your area?
You have to look at what's being sold and at what price. That's important.
Look at comparables for similar houses. Study prices and sales for one year ago, six months ago, three months ago and the current numbers.
What are the trends? Are prices going up or down -- and by how much? How many days are homes staying on the market? If they are on the market longer, how much of that could be seasonal? In many areas, spring and summer are the busy seasons.
Pay special attention to the data between the list price and the sales price. That is, look for a meaningful relationship between list price and sales price.

Know what your house is worth:
Talk to a handful of agents. Get an appraisal from a certified professional appraiser. Look at your comparables. Taken together, that information will give you a pretty good idea of what your home is currently worth.

Analyze who is buying and selling in your market:
What's your competition? Who are the buyers, and why are they shopping?

Assess the market where you plan to buy:
If you're selling one house and buying another, look at the market where you plan to move. It might be that, with the housing there, it's a great time to buy.

Existing Home Sales - Have we hit bottom?

The number of Americans signing contracts to buy existing homes unexpectedly rose in April as the first nationwide decline in prices since the 1930s lured buyers back into the market, a private report showed.

The index of pending home resales rose 6.3 percent to 88.2, the highest level in six months, following a 1 percent drop in March, the National Association of Realtors said today in Washington.

The drop in property values may be starting to lure some buyers who are able to qualify for loans, signaling purchases are begining to improve.

These are signs that sales could be bottoming out in some areas of the country. As for South Florida; luxury beach front inventories are begining to firm up. However, we need to see some strong numbers in the comming months to confirm this.

Two Minute Management Course

I recieved an email from my good friend on management and thought it was very entertaining. The name of the email was: The Two Minute Mangement Course. I'd love to hear your thoughts! I tend to agree...

Lesson One
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him," Can I also sit like you and do nothing? "The eagle answered: "Sure, why not. "So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested.

All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped onthe rabbit and ate it.

Management Lesson - To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson Two
A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love tobe able to get to the top of that tree", sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy." "Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull. "They're packed with nutrients. "The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at thetop of the tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Management Lesson - Bull shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.

Lesson Three
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It wasso cold, the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.

A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Management Lesson -
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

This ends your two minute management course.

Memorial Day



Wishing our troops and soldiers a peaceful day; Thank you!

“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.”
