Exceptionalism
May 25th, 2009 Categories: For Buyers, For Sellers, Lilburn
There are a lot of real estate agents. The NAR reports over 1.2 million members, and the Atlanta area alone has more than 40,000. It is hard to NOT know a real estate agent. Regardless of where I go and who I talk with, they know an agent. Today at the cell phone store, the clerk helping me has an agent for a Mother-in-Law. There are three in my small neighborhood. There are at least two at my son’s pre-school.
The fact is that is is hard to turn around without bumping into one of us.
And there are agents that make it even worse. Read the rest of this entry »

REbarCamp…
May 17th, 2009 Categories: For Sellers
Ok, it really doesn’t have anything to do with concrete (rebar). It actually doesn’t have anything to do with drinking, either (bar camp). Instead, it is about peer-to-peer technology education. Blogging, social networking, video, listing search technologies and better utilization of market data were some of the covered subjects.
Why does this matter to consumers? (I’m secretly glad you asked…)

590 Baltimore Ave., Lilburn, GA 30047
May 14th, 2009 Categories: For Buyers, Lilburn
I actually took the listing last week and got it set up. The website is now up, although it is still getting some more tweaks and additions.
590 Baltimore Ave, Lilburn, GA 30047 is being offered at $400,000. And it is an exceptional property. Four bedrooms, three and a half bath, and two 2 car garages. There is a full finished basement.
This is a really cool place, and there isn’t anything else like it. From the long winding driveway through the three acres to the house surrounded by woods and the creek, the house transports you to another place.

But Zillow says…
May 14th, 2009 Categories: For Buyers, For Sellers, Lilburn
I know… most sellers at some point take a look at the ‘Zestimate’ that Zillow produces for their property. And there is almost always one of two reactions…
- “Those people are on crack, my house is worth way more than that” (if the Zestimate is lower than expected)
- “Wow, I didn’t know it was worth THAT much… Cool” (if the Zestimate comes in higher than expected)
The bottom line is that Read the rest of this entry »

My House is Worth What?

I can’t think of a question that I am asked more…
What is my home worth?
And there as many answers as there are times the question is asked. There are a lot of sources for the information… Read the rest of this entry »

SRBC Car Show Delayed until May 16th
May 2nd, 2009 Categories: Lilburn, Parkview, Things to do
The Smoke Rise Baptist Church Car Show, scheduled for today was delayed by weather. Overnight rains forced the organizers to alter the date, fearing more poor weather.
A few cars showed up this morning, but apparently the website and email list was pretty effective at getting out the word.
One of the cars that was there this morning was this beautiful Shelby GT500 clone. Gotta love a 428 Cobra Jet.
