Each buyer has their own schedule of when they think they should buy a home. I have heard clients buy the first house they see and others have have seen close to 100 properties, made several offers on different houses but didn't work out for one reason or another before one was accepted. If you want to live in the house and feel it's a good value etc, be prepared to write up an offer. If you really don't want to live there or want to see other homes before deciding, that's fine. I have found that most it usually takes about seeing twenty homes on average before going forward with an offer-once they decide on area where they want to live. It can be faster when you are looking for a townhome, as many of the units are quite similar, once you decide on which neighborhood best suites your ne... 11/08/2018

As a larger city of 85,000 or so residents, there is a wide variety of cuilnary options to choose from. Being from the area orginally, I know where to go to get quality cuisine at a reasonable prices when I don't feel like cooking. I have lived elsewhere in the country and have traveled to a several different areas, I have found the food to be generally good compared to most places-other than maybe just for fresh seafood found in Florida.The Danbury area does offer a diverse population which is reflected in the culinary offerings in the area. If you really want to know where to go, ask the locals. If they are like me, they prefer the local joints such as Pancho's Taco's & Bambino's, over the Taco Bells & Olive Garden. However, the area does offer both types of options for people that pr... 11/03/2018

I ask people do you want to see homes or do you really need to move & financially ready to move? The 2nd part of the question is the most important. If one is looking for ideas of decorating, you can get ideas of what some people are doing by looking online at various home listings or stopping by public open houses.  If you want to see homes and financially ready, we should also talk about your time-frame. If you are not committing to moving for two years, we can out once or twice for an overall of available properties, but shouldn't go out of a regular basis since it can be intrusive to the property owners which are living there-which is most homes currently on the market for sale which are planning to moving in a reasonable time frame. We can stay in touch after that and catch up when... 10/27/2018

As a property expert in the Danbury & Candlewood Lake area of Connecticut, I am propositioned by anxious owners of their home. They often invite me to pick my brain on the market. I often debate in my mind whether they are just wanting a price on their real estate for future planning or actually planning on moving immediately or in the near future. Sometimes clients don't tell me up front, which isn't that beneficial to either of us, even when I try to get your motivation. The price for the selling your house now or in the future shouldn't be the only thing that you should consider when hiring a real estate agent. You should feel confident on how our home will be marketed, explanation of how the sales process works, knowledge of the market & a complete explanation and review of how aris... 10/20/2018

Almost all of my incoming buyers plan to keep their current job when they move up to the Danbury,Connecticut area. There are many reasons why clients decide to relocate to the area, include cultural opportunities, schooling, affordable real estate options with reasonable property taxes, a suburban environment with loads of amenities and other more.  If you don't work in Danbury,CT or the immediate towns, this means you will have to be commuting.

In the current Danbury,Ct real  estate market, certain price ranges and properties types are exteremly competivite.

The Danbury,CT real estate market can be confusing if you are going from out of the area or even move locally into a townhome. Generally speaking, the newer the unit would is, the more more money you are going to be paying.

There are lot of other factors that play into the valuation of real estate, including interior condition of the home including mechincal systems, as well as upkept of the common grounds & heatlhy budget for the condo association. Generally speaking as well as a long time resident & real estate professional, it is best to s... 10/10/2018
