As Spring rapidly approaches you may be considering is now the right time to sell your home? Kenny Chesney said:“Sunshine and spring bring out the best in everyone.”There are many things that go into deciding if now is the right time to sell your home. What are you trying to achieve? Is it to downsize or buy a larger home due to changes in family circumstances? Are you dealing with a death or divorce situation?Sometimes a time just comes when you know you need or want to move for a variety of reasons. When it is time, that is the time to move and sell your home.There is no right time specifically, it all depends on your situation. People often believe Spring is the best time to sell, however statistics actually show the best prices generally are achieved in the Fall.Anne Bradstreet said... 03/14/2025

Who doesn't love a deal? I know I do. Having grown up as the son of an antique dealer I heard my father for many years negotiating when purchasing items for stock and when he was selling as well. It made me a better negotiator when I followed him into the business many years later. When every penny counts and it is your business you tend to study how to be a good negotiator.Main Line and Chester County buyers and sellers of real estate want a good deal and using an agent with excellent negotiation skills is a good beginning. But how do you get the best deal?There are many styles of negotiation win-win, win everything etc. But the best way to negotiate is to make sure both sides get most of what they want but probably not everything.For buyers the past few years have been brutal, with of... 03/12/2025

 My Mother had a significant influence on my life. My Mother loved life and was grateful to be alive and for all she had. She was an orphan in her teenage years and lived with her sister in a home. She had a voice like an angel and sang all the time. Music was always playing in our house, and we were always singing. My older sister Sarae influenced me also, as she was like a second mom, and we were 10 years apart. My Father also loved music and was always reading and doing puzzles. I was always encouraged to play instruments and sports. I loved swimming and I played violin in the orchestra in school. People always say I look just like my Mother; she was vivacious. Although we loved to sing, no one had my Mother's voice, so my Mom sent me to dance school. Although my Mother was only 4'10... 03/10/2025

Professional photography catches the eyes of potential buyers on line, but video can seal the deal. Today more people watch video short and long form than might read the description of a house.Whilst photos can show the rooms, a real video, not one of those tours of stitched together photos, can tell the story. When showing a house for sale, clients walk through the rooms, see the natural light, get a feel for the size and flow of the house. Well video can do the same thing. It can show a Main Line or Chester County buyer if this house might work for them or not; both are excellent results as our aim is to attract serious buyers not just those who want to look at homes.Generally, I want to show how the home flows through a video and pick out any special features. Obviously, with a large... 03/10/2025

Buying a home can be stressful, but Main Line and Chester County buyers guided by Nick Vandekar, Selling the Main Line and Chester County with Realty ONE Group Advocates have an advantage, and often they have fun as well.Touring homes with the intention of buying one is different to just visiting someone's home. As a Realtor I have toured many, many homes over the 20 plus years I have been selling homes. I used to sell antiques, and when i was out hunting for inventory I often thought about what clients wanted. I found touring homes a similar experience, I walk though a home with an idea of what my clients have told me they want in a home.It is more than just three bedrooms and two baths, I usually sit and talk with clients for a while to discover what makes them tick, to uncover their ... 03/05/2025

Things About Houses – LathYears ago before dry wall was used on the interior walls of a house, lath and plaster completed the walls inside houses. Back then lath was made from wood, before the use of metal strips. The lath would be attached to the studs horizontally to the ceiling and floor. Plaster would then be applied to the lath, three layers actually, according to Doug. The last layer of plaster would be the the smoothest and ready for adornment, such as paint or wallpaper.The walls in our 1915 house were constructed in this manner. I know this because when we did upgrades, we removed the plaster and lath and replaced the walls with drywall. One thing Doug pointed out to me when we were removing the lath and plaster was horse hairs in the plaster between each piece of lath. I was h... 03/04/2025

Main Line and Chester County buyers often get confused about how much money they need to buy a house. Many people get confused by the down payment and the amount of money they need to close on a house. Some people get confused between the down payment and the earnest money deposit.The down payment is the equity in the house you are paying for with cash you have in savings or another type of account. The balance of the purchase price if you are not paying cash is paid for with the mortgage.The earnest money deposit is the money you offer with the agreement of sale to show your sincerity in wanting to purchase the house. Typically in our area, The Main Line and Chester County the earnest money deposit is paid in two instalments. One within 5 days of acceptance of the offer, usually an amo... 02/28/2025

Recently I received a packet of milkweed seeds for a $1 donation, thanks to Live Monarch Foundation.All I had to do was mail a self addressed, a stamped envelope and $1 bill to:Live Monarch FoundationPO Box 1339Blairsville, GA 30514I enjoy gardening in the summer/warmer months and I particularly enjoy seeing butterflies visit the flowers in my garden. I’ve noticed over the past few years a major decline in the monarch butterflies that visit my butterfly bush and flowers. Reading up on the matter, I found out monarchs are in major decline because of many factors hindering their migration every year and the habitat that supports their survival.To counter their decline, Live Monarch Foundation is hoping many people will plant milkweed seeds to grow this flowering plant on their property.

There are many things to consider for buyers of Main Line and Chester County Homes and with the rise in interest rates one of the big questions being asked "Is an Adjustable Rate Mortgage Right for You?"So let's examine this and give you the information so you can feel confident about the decision you will make on what type of mortgage to use.Firstly the fixed rate mortgage is exactly that, the rate is fixed for the duration of the loan. You basically know what you will be paying for the term of the loan, the only part that might adjust is taxes if you pay those through your mortgage company. This is a great product, having come from the UK many years ago where we had floating rates and the mortgage interest rate would rise whenever the bank rate rose and fall when it fell, made for a l... 02/26/2025

Main Line and Chester County Residents know the market has been hot for the last few years. With little to no inventory and multiple offers many buyers have been making several offers before either putting their house hunt on hold or being successful.Here we are in 2025, interest rates have risen over the last few months to hover between 6 and 7%, house prices have been rising every year and in some cases from month to month, so is that changing the market?For the past few years it has definitely been a seller's market. Sellers have sat back seeing their equity increasing dramatically, and they have come to expect offers without contingencies. No inspections, cash offers often and definitely no home for sale contingencies.But, is the market changing? In the past few weeks we have seen a... 02/24/2025

Selling a home can be a grueling process, even in a market with low inventory and what has seemed like rising prices for the past couple of years. There are just so many facets to a transaction. Well Main Line and Chester County Residents relax, I am here to explain and help give you confidence to make the right decisions throughout the transaction.When you receive an offer it is made up of many parts, whilst most sellers look to the price first, there are many elements. These are called the terms of the offer. They may include the settlement date, whether the buyer is paying cash or using a mortgage. Is the buyer going to do inspections? Does the buyer have another home that has to be sold to buy your home?These are all types of contingencies. So let's explore what they mean for you as... 02/21/2025
