(John G. Johnston & Associates, LLC)
Professional Courtesy   Richard Weisser wrote an interesting blog on April 29, 2013 titled "How  much time should we give the seller to answer our offer?" I live in an extreme buyer's market and if a property gets shown the showing agent qualifies for a 3 day cruise, Broadway tickets and a spa membership!  So, my opinion may not care much weight on this subject.  But, I speak from experience. If someone takes the time to show and write an offer for one of your listings isn't it professional courtesy to reply to their contract offer?  My experience was several years ago when the seller told the young, new agent they didn't want to reply.  The day after 'deadline' I called the other agent to ask about the offer only to hear they didn't want to reply to it. I accept a seller's position.  W...

Real estate is back in the news with leading stories to whet a viewer’s appetite for more details, and this time it’s not falling prices, foreclosures or strategic defaults.   What began as a whisper last fall turned into a raging roar with the arrival of 2013.  Last night a national news story flashed a map showing a one-year increase in prices of 14% from February 2012 to February 2013 for the greater Los Angeles housing market. Indeed, the housing market has changed.  Have you and your plans?  If you were waiting for the bottom, you missed it.  If you were waiting for the market to improve before selling, it has.  Are there still good buys?  Yes, but the definition of “good buy” is very fluid these days.  Prices have not yet reached the dizzying heights of 2007 but predictions are p...

The Winchester, VA real estate market continues to improve as it crosses the first third of 2013.  The sales volume from January 1 through April 30 has been 406 closed properties.  The volume during the same period of 2012 was 389.  That's a 4% increase in closed properties for the first four months of 2013.  Four percent may not be earth shattering news, but it is a growing trend that seems to be gaining momentum.   The number of distressed sales during the first four months of 2013 was down to 29% of all sold properties.  Distressed properties made up 43.5% of sales in the first four months of 2012.  The change from year to year is a 33% decline.  That is more good news.  There are also less available distressed properties than at this same time in 2012.    One of biggest shifts in th...

It seems that home staging is often viewed as a last resort idea. When the listing isn't selling, it's a good time to call in a stager. For those who are interested in maximizing the value of their customer's home sale, what they really need to know, is that we should be first on the list, not last.  Home Staging makes the most of the best time to sell   When a home is freshly listed, new on MLS, new in online syndicate sites, and fresh in the minds of office Realtors, it has the chance of getting the best offers. This of course is exactly why often sellers and agents think it's not needed -  yet. But what if the home were shown in it's best possible condition from the beginning? Sure home staging will work if you call us 30 days after it was listed. But what we can't bring back are the...

      Author Florence Littauer tells a story of how she drove to a local mall one day went shopping for several hours and returned to the garage to fetch her car. On the way she realized she had left her keys in the last store she had visited so she went back inside and was relieved to find her keys. She went back to the parking garage but could not remember where she had parked. After walking around in the garage for a long while a man who was driving toward the exit spotted her and saw her frustration. He offered to drive her around the parking garage to help find her car. She was so grateful and took him up on the offer. As she sat down in the passenger seat the man asked her what model her car was.  Florence burst into tears. The man politely asked: "What is wrong"? Florence spoke ...

A consumer contacted me, through one of my listings, and wanted to arrange a showing. One of the first questions I ask consumers is "Are you currently working with a real estate agent?" This consumer hemmed and hawed, and eventually said "No.. not really". That, of course, required further digging, on my part, and it eventually came out that "Yes, he had been working with an agent... but s/he couldn't manage to arrange convenient times for the consumer to view properties (one of which, was mine).  I asked if they had a signed/written exclusive agency agreement, and he said "no".  We talked for a few minutes about what type of properties the consumer was looking for, and along with my own, I suggested a few local properties that seemed to suit him.  His agent hadn't mentioned any of thos...

One of the benefits we were looking forward to in moving outside the city was quiet…blessed peace and quiet. Oh, sure, you would be surprised at how used to noise you become when you’re living between the Metro and the Highway…but if you crave privacy and quiet, you do envision living in a perfectly quiet environment, surrounded by green grass, trees and nature.  Except – “nature is loud” – as one of my clients exclaimed a year or so ago when we were looking for her new Stafford County home.  This was her response after a rooster crowed in the neighbor’s backyard, taking her quite by surprise.  As an owner of a very proud – and loud – rooster, I can attest to just how loud they can be. Indeed, yes, Nature is loud.   As I sat on my front porch earlier this week, I could hardly concentrat...

What are these so called "White Lies"? As a child my Mother taught me lying was wrong, that not telling the truth was/is a character flaw and a sign of low moral standard. As I got a bit older, I began to understand that some lies, while still lies, are not all bad. Protecting someone from getting their feelings hurt or "lying by omission" for the same purpose is in most cases viewed as being caring and sensitive to others. Since beginning my career I see that line between these two blurred more an more. Protecting your clients best interest is always number one; knowing what to say and what NOT to say or divulge is primary and at the for front of this. Real Estate ethics tells us that we are required to be honest and fair to all parties. I understand that this in general refers to "per...

Owning a home is simple with the USDA Loan Program. If you think it is out-of-reach for you and your family, you might be thinking wrong!

We recently completed first quarter for 2013.  Hard to believe how quickly time flies.  Time to look at the real estate market in Milton MA for first quarter of 2013.   From January 1, 2013 - March 31, 2013, there were 29 single family homes sold in Milton, MA*. The lowest priced home sold for $125,00.00 and the highest priced home sold for $1,225,000.00. The average sales price for this period was $557,000.00.     The first quarter of 2013 saw the lowest number of sales in Milton MA for the past five years.  The chart below shows home sales in Milton for the first quarter over the past five years.         It has been such a busy real estate market so you're wondering, why are sales down?  The reason is simple.  It is the low inventory that is a problem throughout our local markets, and...

This is the article that I will be submitting to our local newspaper to be published for the next issue.  I have a column that I call "It's A Sign of The Times" and along with my full page ad in that newspaper, there is always an article published for free.  I get alot of mileage from this print advertising.  People read it.  People recognize us from it, and it complements the other methods of marketing that I do consistently, not to mention the benefits of it being "Free."   It's A Sign of The Times... We’re in a very strong seller's market.  What this means to the many buyers who are waiting for fresh inventory to surface is that they may not jump soon enough or high enough as each property comes on the market.  There are more buyers than there are active listings to buy. Most buyers ...

Well, here I go...sticking my neck out again and telling it like it is.  No names will be used...yet.   Once upon a time, long ago, I met an "experienced" Real Estate Agent.   Of course, naive as I was at the time, I just considered him a bit "crusty".   I also took the word of other agents who knew him better and said he was "alright...a good guy".  Ever notice how some people think it's necessary to always say something good about a person?  Trust your intuition.  If you have to ask about someone's integrity, there's a reason.  So, "Green Agent" (me) is told not to worry about "Crusty Agent".   And, Green Agent falls for it. Then my clients bought property he had listed. A little background...the property was in this agent's "neighborhood", in fact, he owns property next door.  He spo...

Team Webb Your ability to secure financing when you’re looking to buy your home, weighs heavily on your credit score. Before the real estate “bubble burst” in 2006 money was handed out quite liberally, even to the lowest of low credit scores. I personally had seen a buyer with a credit score less than 500 FICO score buy a house! However, the normal score to secure a loan then was 620 or higher. Credit scores tell a lot about your purchasing habits whether you want to them to or not. Currently 18% of the population have scores of 800 to 850! The flip side is 15% are below 550. Back in 2006, the median score was 723, 20% of the population were below 620 and 20% were above 780. FICO, two biggest factors are found in a credit score – payment history and the amounts owed. So, how do you use ...

How long do you have for a Home Inspection in Lynchburg VA?  Real Estate is local, so rules can be different. in the greater Lynchburg VA area your contract defines the length of time a buyer has to get a home inspection.  Basically its determined by the terms both parties agreed upon. So first review your contract.   How long do you have for a Home Inspection in Lynchburg VA?  The standard contract used by the Lynchburg Association of Realtors has two options, you can write in the amount of days or use the default. The default of the contract states you have 10 days to perform the inspection and request the repairs.  Unless noted, it is total days,not business days.   What Happens after the 10 days or after the days stated on the contract?   After the deadline as per the contract, the ...

  My Soap Dish Fell Off The Shower Wall   There seems to be a number of soap dishes in one apartment community in Sacramento that is experiencing soap dishes falling off the shower walls. The tiles holding the soap dish in place has come lose from the wall board and has been an early indicator of a bigger problem. Just because you have a soap dish get knocked out doesn’t mean you have a water damage problem. I once was quickly showering at a friend’s house. While frantically shampooing my elbow hit the soap dish and it fall out. I hit it pretty hard; there was no water damage in the walls. At this apartment complex there were high levels of moisture detected in the ceramic tile walls. The greatest concentration of moisture tends to be at the lower tiles and higher in the areas that rece...

On new construction I see a lot of dormers on roofs that are simply interesting architectural details and have no function other than to look good.  Dormers as architectural details CAN look good, but can rot quickly. I say that for lots of reasons. There is usually a lot of wood.  Of course, wood has six sides!  All sides MUST be primed and the exposed faces painted with two coats ON TOP OF the primed coat. They say to never say never.  In my experience (that is my disclaimer) builders NEVER prime all six sides.  During an inspection I can see from the brush strokes that the contractor did NOT use two coats. And worst of all, OFTEN the painting is done when it is too cold outside, which sets the paint up for failure.  I have had many posts about painting DONT'S, but HERE is one about w...

For home buyers interested in conducting their own home inspection, here's a list of larger items to look out for while viewing houses.  This is a cursory overview of some of the larger problems that are frequently identified during home inspections.  Of course, this is no substitute for a professional home inspection, but it's a great start. Roof Problems While many roof problems can only be identified by actually walking the roof or leaning a ladder up against the eaves, some defects can be easily seen from the ground.  Be sure to view all sides of the roof.  In older neighborhoods with tall houses that are close to each other, it may be necessary to walk a fair distance down an alley to get a good look at the roof. Look for any irregularities with the roof: shingles that look curled ...

  Homeownership Is No Longer the American Dream According to a national survey conducted by Hart Research Associates and commissioned by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation - Eight in 10 Americans believe we are still in the middle of the housing crisis — or that the worst is yet to come. The information fails to report the demographics of the survey. Two-thirds of adults, 65% to be exact, now believe the focus of national housing policy should be split fairly equally between rental and ownership, as opposed to emphasizing one specifically. While 70% of renters aspire to own a home one day, 57% of those surveyed believe that buying a home has become less appealing. After decades of linking homeownership with the American Dream, 3 in 5 adults believe that after the housing ...

If you’re looking around for land to purchase have you considered the Charleston SC land for sale that's presently on the market? There are plenty of available plots that would suit any size home or business. If you want to become a Charleston landowner to protect the rural lands, consider conservation easements that declare restrictions on subdivision, development and other land uses, tailored to the agricultural, forestry, recreational and ecological goals of the land owner. I’ve discovered more than 3,000 lots of Charleston SC land for sale with HFL Real Estate, all suggesting the type of infrastructure that could potentially be developed on the land. HFL Real Estate is one of Charleston’s leaders in the management and development of land and much of their primary business is in the ...

People might wonder how I can find any time to fight with the black crows at my home in Land Park, given the amount of business I manage, but sometimes those crows can be a welcome addition to my day. Not to mention, I am very organized. I don't spend time on things that don't produce results for my clients. They come first in my business model.

Yesterday I watched comments roll in about NOT attending home inspections. Well, I am still watching them roll in today. I am atypical, I don't attend them. Other agents coast to coast do attend them. And they think I'm nuts. I think when the, "Everything's bigger in Texas," rule was passed by our legislature and McMansions became common, even in economically constructed developments 3,000 feet and a pool go for $100k in some areas here... and inspectors began to take from sun up to sun down to complete their inspection, maybe we (me and my buyers) started to wonder who needed the time to focus (inspector) vs. who needed the time to watch and learn (buyer and agent). And then there is the fact that in Texas the inspectors are licensed, too. They come. They go. And they report in writing...
