Positivity for Cleveland? 2008-04-15 12:32:07 After reading my local paper this morning in regards to an article, questioning the public who have faced foreclosure if they were forced into apartments. They asked for feedback. I found this rather ridiculous; I really wish our media would really start focusing on the positive ness of our areas. As for Ohio there are some really great things happening such as mortgage companies that signed a deal on April 7, 2008 in hopes of stemming our foreclosure tide. . There is less then 10% of our market that is actually in foreclosure. Can our media distinguish that the public would like to hear good news? For those who may possibly be facing foreclosure, there are many options out there. I have faced foreclosure myself,before I became an agent I bought my first home only to find Read more:Cleveland

Facing Foreclosure Ohio, Please read this!! 2008-04-08 15:18:21 As I was sitting here today I received a call in from my broker in regards to a mortgage company I have been dealing via short-sale. I immediatly listened to the information and then looked it up myself. Excitement? This completely made my day. As of April 7. 2008 Governer Strickland announced that nine mortgage companies signed an agreement called " Compact to Help Ohio
ans Preserve Homeownership". This will reduce foreclosures in ohio. Yes, Ohio we are the only state that has this agreement in the nation. Congrats to us!! The principles these companies signed include the following: 1. Engage in substantial and large-scale loan modification effort for ARM mortgage resets and subprime mortgages.2. Indentify, evaluate and make good faith attempt Read more:Facing

A Realtors Life in Eastlake Ohio 2008-04-08 10:11:41
Moving to Eastlake only a few years ago from Ashtabula was a big change for me. A finnish girl always close to the water with a little bit of country still attached to her. I did not know much about my community until I became a Realtor. With great knowledge obtained from my brokers Stan and Linda Leff. I realized I would soon love where I live. I have gained great respect for the community I live in, realizing that over 300 years ago the Erie Indians village was Lakeshore Blvd. and reeves rd. In 1830 settlers from New York came and purchased acres for only $7 to 10 dollars. That completely blows my mind, imagine an acre for that price. In 1951 we became a city only populated by 7486 with a volunteer fire department managing by using borrowed equipement and renting trucks for a doll Read more:Ohio

Lake County Ohio, Reports on Home Sales for Sept- Oct 2007. 2007-11-10 23:52:52 I studied the market this evening in hopes that with the increase of showings I am personally receiving in November. That October would have been a better month then September. However I am going to provide the stats below. Lake County
Oh, I averaged all the areas in Lake County Oh for the Month of September and October and here are the Statistics. September = 165 homes sold through out lake county. (Mentor being the biggest hit with with 54 homes sold)October = 154 homes sold through out lake county. (Mentor being the biggest hit with 42 homes sold)The statistcs show that October was 1.2% behind September. However, I have noticed that November for us has been extremely busy with the amount of showings we are receiving on our properties. I do feel that the word Read more:Ohio

Stats - - - "~Got To See Them~" 2007-11-09 17:10:11 Leslie Appleton Young (Chief Economist and VP of The California Associaton of Realtors) posted an analysis on rismedia that I found very exciting. In her words "If You Currently believe the Internet is the #1 factor to Real-Estate" YOU ARE RIGHT!!!The statistics below are trends since 2000. "If Your Not On The Internet You Will Not Be Found"- 94% of Internet buyers found their agent on a website- 63% Found them on an Internet Search- 0% of Internet buyers found their agent through brochures, flyer's, yard signs or mailers.- In 2000, 28% of people said they used the Internet as a part of their home search.- 2006, 70% said they did.- 86% of home buyers started on the Internet before they even started looking for their specific home. - 14% Of People Did aft Read more:Stats
A Slight Relief.....you think??? 2007-11-09 09:04:00 Is word getting out there to the buyers???? According to Realtor.org October was a much better month then september for buying.... Is it working? Is all of our efforts of speaking that its such a great time to buy, your going to see a huge appreciation on the value of your property and the interest rates are at a 40 year low!!! Well, compared to last October we did sell more homes.........But there is so many efforts being done in trying to promote that we are in a great market to buy. I do feel we are going to see an amazing increase soon in home sales.... Personally, I would be plunging all my dollars into investing in this market. Read more:Slight

Dreaming Big??? 2007-11-08 23:51:13 Everybody in America is dreaming big, but what is everyone doing? Are they just getting by? Are we really taking the initiative that we need to be taking, and exploring all the options we really have.Are we all just sitting day by day waiting for something to come to us, or are we going and getting it ourself? I believe if we dream big and fight for it we are going to receive it. Dreaming
it but actually living it is completely different. So lets go out and get what we "ALL DESERVE". Lets FIGHT for what we have "Worked For".
How to Boost them Up??? 2007-11-08 22:44:31 Alright I have told all my real-estate colleagues about how great active rain is! I have been a member for only a little over a month. However I am meeting a lot of real-estate professionals in my area of Lake County that do not feel that blogging is important at all. I have learned alot by just reading and have received alot of great ideas. Why is their not that much blogging going on in the Cleveland Area. Are we behind the times or what???Trying to convince other professionals that it does work is like pulling teeth......I would really like to see more people in my area on here, I really do feel that it is very benifical not only for business but for yourself as well.......

Hopes and Dreams!!!! 2007-11-08 21:39:35 Being a Realtor is very rewarding.As, I write tonight it's amazing on how many lives you can touch by helping someone sell a home to move on to their next purchase because they have outgrown the current home they are in, or helping someone sell their home because they are facing foreclosure and stopping the whole process, or helping a buyer buy a home that they could of never imagined being in when the were currently renting and the home they just purchased is their own for less then what the could rent.I think alot of times many realtors get discourged and forget what we are really meant to do. I know why I got into this business. It wasn't to make millions of dollars but to make hopes and dreams come true.We strive everyday to meet the expectations of our clients and every indivi Read more:Dreams
