One of the greatest healing tools that we can all benefit from is giving ourselves time to experience nature. She is one of the best wholistic ways to help a person's body heal and rejuvenate.

What’s Ahead For Mortgage Rates This Week – June 6, 2016 Last week’s housing related news was limited to Construction Spending and Freddie Mac’s mortgage rates survey, but labor reports suggested an economic slowdown may be in the works.Construction Spending Slips in April, Mortgage Rates MixedAccording to the Commerce Department, overall construction spending slipped in April to -1.80 percent as compared to March’s reading of +1.50 percent and May’s expected reading of +0.70 percent. Residential construction spending was 1.50 percent lower, which doesn’t help ongoing shortages of available single-family homes. Builders have repeatedly cited labor shortages and lack of developed lots as obstacles to building more homes. Year-over-year construction spending was 4.50 percent higher.Freddi... 06/06/2016

Fun New York Fact: It's the 44th Anniversary of the Woodstock Festival If I could pick an era to be part of, I always said it would be during the 60's and 70's, life was so simply and inoccent and it seems like postive new movements were always coming about. Friday evening, August 15, Richie Havens got up on stage and officially started the Woodstock Festival. The music started up again on Saturday with Quill and continued non-stop until Sunday morning around 9 am. The day of psychedelic bands continued with such musicians as Santana, Janis Joplin, Grateful Dead, and The Who, to name just a few. The last musician to end the festival was Jimi Hendrix. It was estimated that about 500,000 people made it to the festival and by Sunday night about 25,000 remained. Now that's a Party!   08/14/2013

    When the time came to sell my family’s summer home of 50 plus years in Sullivan County, we had the good fortune of having Debra Walsh recommended to us by a realtor where we live in NYC. After meeting with Debbie I knew immediately she was the right broker for my family. She possesses the qualities that are important: knowledge of the market, experience, good communication, listens to her client, and a lot of patience. Throughout the whole process she was always professional and easily accessible. Debbie offered good ideas and suggestions to highlight the qualities of the property, making it more attractive to a perspective buyer. Most important, she communicated with us regularly giving updates, feedback and to hear our concerns as well. This was not an easy sale as several unfores... 03/15/2013

I've been seeing a slight trend lately in upstate New York real estate activity, particularly in Sullivan County properties. Both sales and listings are seeing a rise as the winter season ends and the busy spring buying season begins. Why it is ticking upward is anybody's guess. Of course, I have a theory. A lot of the properties I see getting interest, and many of the Sullivan County properties we have listed in our portfolio are second home or summer getaways. Most of these properties are priced in the top 25 per cent of homes listed in Sullivan County. They're nice, spacious homes, on multi-acre properties - the kind that appeal to upper income buyers. I think that some people who had second homes and vacation spots along the parts of the coast affected by Hurricane Sandy are heading... 03/08/2013

The Rivoli Theatre located on Laurel Avenue & Route 42 in South Fallsburg was built in 1923.  It was a major source of both live and film entertainment during those years of Jewish summer resorts in this region of the Catskill Mountains.  The front marquee is a 3 sided neon sign supported by chains with a vertical neon sign on the front.  The lobby and foyer are in their original size and shape but have been renovated over the years with newer materials.   In 2001 the Rivoli was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Today a local arts group continues to put plays on there every summer and their interest has turned to refurbishing the theater's marquee.  They are trying to raise $27,000 that will match a grant from the state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preserva... 07/31/2011

Sales in the Ulster County residential market surged again in the second quarter, with transactions up 46.3% from last year and 65.3% from the fi rst quarter. Although the Home Buyer Tax Credit had some impact in driving those numbers, Ulster County buyers had access to the tax credit for all of 2009, so many buyers motivated by the credit had already purchased last year. Although pricing is now down 28.1% from the height of the market in late 2007, and is now down to 2003-04 levels, we've now seen pricing stabilize at the $235,000 range for the past year. We expect that the market will cool during the summer after the expiration of the credit, which might put some downward pressure on prices and transactions. The Sullivan residential market displayed some anomalous results in the seco... 07/30/2010

Yesterday was one of the most interesting days of my real estate career....I was told that my buyers counter offer to a seller was not going to go back to her! I had written it in an email and was told he would not tell the owner! HOW WOULD YOU HANDLE AN AGENT WHO REFUSES TO DELIVER YOUR BUYERS OFFER TO THE SELLER? I was put in a position that I have been in on other occasions, but in this case I was dealing with one of the most successful listing agents in the Hamptons. He was being totally unprofessional by what he said and did! HE WAS REFUSING TO BRING MY BUYER'S OFFER TO THE SELLER!!! I had already submitted a written offer to this agent on an asking price that was about 40% more than my buyers offer. My buyer had been turned down with the statement: "No counter to such a low offer!... 07/06/2010
