Appraisal Growth… The next Ripple in the Ripple Effect.
When I began writing about all things real estate, I mentioned that there are ripple effects. Home and property values can have far reaching effects and clearly the next ripple is about to become a big tidal wave... Property Tax Appraisal Growth.

Driving may still be a vacation trip bargain...
...well at least compared to flying! (and unless you are going to Hawaii or Europe, etc.)
A client of mine who always seems to have his finger on the pulse of all things interesting and internet told me today about a AAA website that tells you how much it will cost to drive from one city to another. It takes into account what kind of car you drive and the current average price of fuel by

The magic number. Pricing your home psychologically.
Apparently pricing strategy is not limited to choosing the right price range but also choosing a price that makes people think they are not spending a lot.According to a recent research study done by a team at Cornell University people associate large rounded numbers (such as those ending in "000") with large costly purchases while they associate more precise pricing with lower cost items. What's the point? The study said that comparing two houses, one

Cara Schwartkopf (a talented writer, and one of my favorite people!) wrote a really terrific article on this topic, published recently on Newsday's parenting website: When a New Hyde Park mother of two observed how her friend handled money, she was

On the nationally aired show Marketplace he hears a

List your home with a REALTOR - the non-financial reasons.
I've been calling on For Sale By Owner's lately. Not a very methodical effort on my part, but as I find them I call. And I often get the same response that agents have heard a million times... "I am selling the house myself to save the commission."So, I could pull out a bunch of statistics from NAR about how homes listed by REALTORS bring higher prices and even net higher returns AFTER the commission
