There is no question that it has been a challenging year in real estate, and 2009 will be plagued with many of the same problems i.e. short sales, foreclosures, financing difficulties , and appraisals that fall short of the purchase price, BUT HOMES DID SELL IN 2008 AND THEY WILL SELL IN 2009. Sellers must make pricing their home CORRECTLY a top priority. In 2008, we saw asking prices vary widely as it was difficult for many sellers to accept the downturn in the market. THE HOMES THAT SOLD WERE THE ONES WITH REALISTIC PRICES. THE FACTS THAT MATTER WHEN PRICING YOUR HOME ARE THE SELLING PRICES OF OTHER HOMES IN YOUR AREA, followed by condition and location. Below is a chart that shows CLOSED homes in 2007 vs. 2008. Throughout most of 2008, you will see that fewer homes sold than in 2007....

The lovely Broadview Heights became a city in 1926 and since then has enjoyed slow, but steady growth.  It has emerged as a family friendly place one can easily call home. The city slogan is "The Highest of The Heights", so named because the southern part of the city has the highest elevation in Cuyahoga County. For more information on Broadview Heights go to: http://www.epodunk.com/cgi-bin/genInfo.php?locIndex=16409 Broadview Heights shares a school system with its neighbor Brecksville, and it is a school sytem which continually receives the highest awards for its achievements.

Any person who is a life partner with a realtor or is a son or daughter to them truly knows how much work a good real estate professional does. So I'd like to publicly recognize my husband Lou, and my daughter Erin, but I'll try to be brief! My husband Lou (for 24 years) has always been my "go to guy". He has supported me in real estate for over 22 years and not once has he ever doubted my ability to make it in this business. He's also helped with anything I ask of him. LOU CAN YOU: Help me put up a few extra open house signs? Take the sign out of someone's yard? Put a sign in someone's yard? (the ground is really hard) Look something up on the computer for me? (on the road and before blackberrys) Throw a quick dinner together? (I'll tell you how to do it) Snowplow the driveway so I can...
