Tuesday Open House: West Chester & Mason Ohio Real Estate News and Notes

March 27, 2012 by Eric Lowry Leave a Comment

It’s Tuesday, so this must be the Tuesday Open House. Actually, it’s the return of the Tuesday Open House Weekly Blog Post

What is Tuesday Open House?? Well, it’s clearly not an “open house”. Open Houses don’t sell homes… great internet marketing does… but it seemed like a good title for this weekly blog post.

It is my way of throwing the doors open on the RealEstate-Ink.com blog and offering up a few quick articles and facts on real estate for the West Chester, Liberty Township, Beckett Ridge, Mason and Fairfield Township, Ohio areas. It is not intended to be all about homes for sale, but it will be about that some of the time…

Did You Miss It? :: The Lowry Team has added two terrific new real estate agents to our team in the past two weeks. Lisa Tesmer and Laura Koether are now working with The Lowry Team as Buyer Specialists and we couldn’t be happier. They are your “go to” resources for homebuying in today’s real estate market!

Boy Scout Mulch Sale :: The Boy Scout Mulch Sale has started. If you are preparing your home to get it on the market for sale soon don’t forget the curb appeal. As the old saying goes… you only get one chance to make a good first impression. So clean up the landscaping and get yourself some fresh mulch. I’m not sure that there is a better way to go than to get it from the boy scouts. They even deliver! You can just go directly to the boy scouts site right here.

It’s Tuesday, so this must be the Tuesday Open House.

What is Tuesday Open House?? Well, it’s clearly not an “open house”. Open Houses don’t sell homes… good internet marketing does… but it seemed like a good title for this weekly blog post.

It is my way of throwing the doors open on the RealEstate-Ink.com blog and offering up a few quick articles and facts on real estate for the West Chester, Liberty Township, Beckett Ridge, Mason and Fairfield Township, Ohio areas. It is not intended to be all about homes for sale, but it will be about that some of the time…

This week the Tuesday Open House features several articles for home sellers in West Chester & Liberty Township & Mason, Ohio.

The first is from KCM Blog which is one of my favorites. The title of the article is: A Window of Opportunity for House Sellers. It’s worth a read. It mirrors my belief that home prices will continue to come under pressure in the last half of this year as our huge oversupply of homes for sale continues to grow. You can read the entire article here>> A Window of Opportunity For House Sellers

From the CNBC Realty Check blog is this article on the impending changes in loan limits. Loan Limit: Will It Or Won’t It Hurt Housing? This is a national real estate article and clearly real estate markets are different across the country. I wrote a blog post here on RealEstate-Ink.com detailing my thoughts on this matter for the West Chester, Liberty Township & Mason Real Estate market recently. You can find my article right here>> Loan Limits Changing – Does it matter? and you can read the CNBC article here>> Loan Limit: Will It or Won’t It Hurt?

And for those of you that just love the national reports on home values and prices. This article on Forbes.com on the Case-Shiller home index and many other firms that report (or attempt to) on home values across the country is full of data and detail on home prices>> What Can Homeowners Learn From Case-Shillers Home Price Index?

West Chester & Liberty Twp OH Real Estate: Tuesday Open House – March 29, 2011

It’s Tuesday, so this must be the Tuesday Open House.

It is my way of throwing the doors open on the RealEstate-Ink.com blog and offering up a few quick articles and facts on real estate for the West Chester, Liberty Township, Beckett Ridge, Mason and Fairfield Township, Ohio areas. It is not intended to be all about homes for sale, but it will be about that some of the time…

Mortgage Interest Rates: The tax credits are gone and if you are looking for a reason to buy a home, look no further. Thirty year fixed rate mortgages are 4.85% today. The difference that this rate can make in your monthly payment is amazing. Just look at this example of what these low rates really mean:

$200,000 mortgage amount @ 5.50% = $1135.58 monthly principal & interest payment

$200,000 mortgage amount @ 4.85% = $1055.38 monthly principal & interest payment

This example shows a monthly savings of $80 on your mortgage payment and this is compared to a mortgage interest rate of 5.50% which is a historically low rate itself!

Need Mulch? If you are preparing your home to get it on the market for salesoon, don’t forget the curb appeal. As the old saying goes… you only get one chance to make a good first impression. So clean up the landscaping and get yourself some fresh mulch. I’m not sure that there is a better way to go than to get it from the boy scouts. They even deliver! You can just go directly to the boy scouts site right here. My mulch is being delivered in just a couple of weeks…anyone like to help??
