It's been a long while since I've posted anything here on my Activerain blog. Why? It's easy. Life! Sometimes the path of life gets changed and the journey we seek and expect turns out different than planned. All that to say, I'm officially retired today. January 31, 2023, is my I'M DONE day!Having spent the majority of my life and 38-year career in the real estate industry, it just seems like the right thing to share this post and announcement today.Since 1990ish, many real estate agents, brokers, and even Activerain members have been using the Agent Goal Planner to set and achieve their financial real estate goals. For more than 3+ decades, AGP was successful.Agent Goal Planner has always been available to purchase online. Thousands of copies have been downloaded and applied to busine...

There’s no denying mortgage rates are higher now than last year. And if you’re considering buying a home, this may be top of mind. That’s because those higher rates impact how much it costs to borrow money for your home loan. As you set out to make a purchase this winter, you’ll need to be strategic to find a home that meets your needs and budget. Danielle Hale, Chief Economist at realtor.com, explains: “The key to making a good decision in this challenging housing market is to be laser focused on what you need now and in the years ahead, . . . Another key point is to avoid stretching your budget, as tempting as it may be given the diminished purchasing power.” In other words, it’s essential to be mindful of what’s necessary and a nice-to-have when searching for a home. And the best way...

Why does a 55+ need a school system?  Simple it’s estimated over 20,000 people work in The Villages, Florida in all types of services, trades, legal and medical.  So, let’s do the math, according to the U.S. Census Bureau the average family in The U.S. is 3.13 times 20,000 equals 62,600 people with almost 19% of those being under 15-year-old.  The developer saw the need for an “A” rated school for those working for the The Villages and also to attract the workforce needed to support the community.The Villages Charter School boasts a 99% graduation rate with 93% going on to higher education.  Current enrollment is 3,400 students from K thru 12 and currently building a new high school and changing the current high school and expect enrollment to reach 6,500 in the fall of 2023.The lifesty...

Some homes just reach out and embrace you with all the warmth and love in their four walls. This is one of those homes! You will start to smile when you walk up the front steps to the big porch and imagine sitting there in a big swing, sipping lemonade and listening to the birds chirping in the trees. Maybe you aren't a front porch swing type of person. Maybe you like sitting on your rear deck overlooking the flat back yard where your friends are throwing a frisbee to one another while they are waiting for the steaks to finish grilling! Watch out that they don't trample your tomato plants and herbs in your new garden! Enough with the outside - step instide to the sunny first floor with the open design and chef's kitchen!

 (Especially if You Need a Pro) Finalize plans for any landscaping, decks, patios, or other outdoor projects that need warm weather. Two good reasons: Image: Photo by ADZA       1. If you're DIYing, you'll be ready to roll at the first hint of nice weather. That way, you'll be less affected by any supply chain shortages and have your improved yard ready to enjoy by summer. 2. If you're hiring a contractor or other professional, getting your bids and contracts in place now will save you from competing with the spring rush (wait too long, and you may not be able to book anyone!).
