Home sales are on the rise in Mandeville, Covington and Slidell Louisiana.  I have witnessed home sales increase 32% over the last two years.  This is the reason we are implmenting a new advanced home search peocess with new algerythms that will revolutize the way people see, search, view and find homes.  The new system and website has been beta tested for months with great success.  Now we are just weeks away from the launch.  One of the new features is called reverse home matching.  Here is how it works.  We have thousands of home buyers looking for homes in St.Tammany.  In stead of the traditional way that just sends home buyers properties when their listed our new process actually takes the information on the house and matches it to the perfect home buyer for that home.  This means ...

There is nothing more stressful than placing your home on the market and it not selling. This actually happens 38% of the time in the St. Tammany real estate market. However, Turner Real Estate Group takes the stress away by offering a home sale guarantee. “The home sale guarantee is not for everyone, but it is a means in which we can guarantee your home will be sold in 120 days or we will buy it. It has to be a win-win for all parties involved, on we won’t do it. It is a great program for many,” says Turner. In addition to the guaranteed home sale program, Turner also has other unique opportunities for those home owners looking to sell. “We allow home owners to cancel their listing at anytime and pay nothing. There are no added costs, fees, gimmicks or obligation,” says Turner. “If you...

MANDEVILLE, La. – Wayne Turner, Broker/Owner of Turner Real Estate Group, attended marketing platform Boomtown’s conference in Charleston, S.C. this past week. Boomtown is an internationally recognized leader for real estate technology and marketing. This year’s conference taught Realtors the importance of high ranking search engine optimization (SEO), and how it allows buyers to easily search for homes. 25% of all home buyers search for homes on a tablet, smart phone or other mobile device. It’s important for all Realtors to have a website that is easily accessible and transferrable on all devices. “We allow a simpler approach for consumers to navigate their home search,” says Turner. “Foreclosures, short sales, bond for deeds, fixer uppers, luxury homes and everything in between. We a...

My team and I have successfully closed 108 homes this year making us the #1 Real Estate Team in St. Tammany Parish! We couldn’t have done it without your continued support and trust. The simplicity of the internet has allowed for we as consumers to become extremely educated to any subject we so choose. Home buyers are a great example. They have loads of sold home data at their disposal. They know what, when, and at what price houses have sold for in the area they're considering. Home buyers know when a house may seem a little on the high side for the market. This is why we don’t see “Low Ball Offers” We just see fewer showings and fewer offers but lots of views and clicks of your property on our sites. Have you ever thought to yourself; we haven’t even had an offer? This is why. That sa...

It's no joke interest rates are super low and the talk is that we will see a surge in more people buying real estate in Mandeville. After the election is behind us in, 29 days but who is counting? I was crunching some numbers, comparing rates 24 months ago. Rates are 2% lower today. If your interest rate is 2% lower today than 2 years ago you would save $111,008 dollars on a $250,000 home. Yea, It's that much and the average price range for a home in Mandeville is approx. $250,000. Real Estate St.Tammany Parish is going up in value ever so slightly. More people are taking advantage of cost of todays money. The payment on a $250,000 home with 3.5% down is $1,515 per month. This includes taxes, insurance and mortgage insurance. The is the heart on Covington real estate. If your looking to...

Yes...Buy a home and get $4,000. Ever heard of the Community Reinvestment Act? How about Municipal Statical Area? These are banking terms and they are good ones for you. Here is why. CRA Community Reinvestment Act means when banks have deposits they must also loan money and based on the MSA, Municipal Statical Area of Southern Louisiana, many banks are doing in house portfolio loans. This means they service and keep the loan in their bank. I am working with two lenders who are offering amazing buying opportunities on homes for sale in Mandeville and Covington.   How Does This Help Real Estate?   Only a 600 Credit Score is Needed. down from 620 30 Year Fixed Loan at 3% - Yes...3% Fixed You Do Not have to be a 1st Time Buyer $4,000 Grant for Down Pmt. or Closing Cost   This offer is for ...

If you're a Realtor you're in sales.  Yes, you are a sales professional. One of the highest paid professions in the world.  Now wouldn't you agree it would be wise to learn as much as possible about people since they are the ones buying homes.  Learn our movements, personalities, ways, actions, tone and inflection.  Listen with 2 ears and one month.  Here are a few tips I share with my buyer agents.  Tips for Selling Homes: Who, What, When, Where, Why, Whom and Which . . . These are open ended questions that engage conversation. If I could show you how to buy a home with only $500 would that interest you? If I could get the sellers to__________________ could you see yourself living here. If there were a way_____________________ would you buy the house? I’m going to find you a property ...

After 17 years of living in Louisiana and almost 14 married to the same man, I've decided to become a US citizen. Truth is, my green card was about to expire and my options were to renew or take the oath. Yesterday, I was scheduled for an interview and to take the citizenship test, all part of the process. All went pretty smooth and I'm already scheduled for my oath ceremony... in two days! I guess it means that Thursday, I will wake up as a Canadian citizen and go to bed as a US citizen. After my appointment, I crossed the Causeway Bridge into Mandeville to have lunch with a friend. What a beautiful place! We drove along the lake for a while and I could hardly keep my eyes on the road. I love old homes and I'm definitely planning another trip to the area just to do photography. I didn'...
