Between 2 Rivers Real Estate

  In the last month, I have talked to two past clients who have not made time to refinance since they purchased their homes in 2006 & 2007. With interest rates dropping steadily over the last few years I thought for sure everyone that could refinance had now done so, possibly even more than once!  I was flabbergasted to hear that they had not, and while not responsible, I couldn’t help but wish I could have gotten to them sooner, as waiting literally...Continue Reading...

Real estate activity & sales spiked up in November when it usually slows way down. Here is a picture of the Market Average for the year, for condos, in four of the towns Between 2 Rivers.  See what I mean?  Low inventory, low interest rates, and probably even the warmer weather, keep the market moving. If you have an observation about this trend or want information about your specific town, please feel free to comment or give me a call.Continue Reading...

Warning: Are You Relying on a Zestimate to Price Your Home?

Between 2 Rivers Real Estate

Many times when I go to meet with a seller to talk about the value of their home I hear, "well Zillow says my house is worth..." Zillow is a wonderful resource.  The Zestimates they provide are extremely interesting. But if you are selling, or buying, it is important that you recognize that relying solely on a Zestimate to place value can cost you.
