Colors Scheme can set a home off...it may NOT be paint

There is no doubt that the market has many sellers/homeowners rethinking the presentation of their home. Adding the extra POP to a home definitly can seperate your home from all other competing homes in the marketplace...and having a buyer leave a series of showings with your home on the mind is definitly a huge PLUS.

So how does one go about setting a house off without investing much money or rebuying furniture for a whole house???? Well most of the homes that POP have a great color...

The Lehigh Valley Housing Market

Posted 11-05-2008 at 01:18 PM by jeffvivian
As we wait for the Local Association to release its data on October, I will provide some speculation on the data that we will see for the past month.

October sales will probably have sunk again, further depressing numbers from the September Report (nothing factual yet, just a conclusion from talking with agents from various companies). The national numbers did post a slight increase, but the Lehigh Valley will not see any of those positive effects for a little while. As to be expected...

How to Stage a Home For a Quick Sale and High Sales Price

Posted 11-03-2008 at 09:06 AM by jeffvivian
Staging is all the rage across America right now. Whether you are selling a home or simply re-decorating, staging has simple principles that most people fail to grasp.
Most people cannot stage their own home. Their sentimental attraction to too many pieces will not allow them to minimize the space. A cute picture of their family together combined with a vase that they got at their wedding, though priceless to them, simply clutters the appearance of the room.
Staging is about clearing...

Iron Pigs

Posted 07-10-2008 at 09:09 AM by jeffvivian
Last night we had Dugout Suites at the Iron Pigs game and I have to say that was the best vantage point I have have ever watched a sporting event. Sitting behind home plate like that actually made you feel like you were the catcher. Unbelievable! It was just too bad that Kris Benson got shelled.

But I am a pig believer....now lets hope the Philly Phantoms can find a new home in the Valley.

Lehigh Valley Market Update

Posted 06-22-2008 at 09:41 AM by jeffvivian
I thoughts this would be a good time to start discussing the current housing market in the Lehigh valley. Althought the appearance is that the market is soft - and numbers are starting to resemble a softening -there is a silver lining. It seems the bottom of the marrel is upon us. And all-in-all the market was not as bad as the rest of the nation.

The reason I believe we have hit somewhat of the bottom, is mortgage rates are starting to trend higher. I know this sounds crazy...
