Spring Brings an Increase in Buyer Demand but a Decrease in Supply

 

For the second month in a row, existing-home sales were up; according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), sales rose 1.1 percent in March to 5.6 million—welcome news after the weather-related declines posted in February. The increase in overall sales activity can be partly attributed to strong gains in the Northeast and Midwest. However, sales are still 1.2 percent below a year ago, due in part to… Read More

Is It Time to Replace Your Windows?

 

Windows provide natural light, ventilation, and a view of the outdoors, but windows that are worn-out can also be a major source of wasted energy. Every time the heating or air-conditioning turns on it’s like blowing money out the windows. Here are a few ways to check how your windows are performing:

Do the Windows Work?
Check to see if the windows open and close easily and lock securely. If you have trouble opening… Read More

Four Questions to Ask about a Neighborhood Before You Buy a Home

 

So you think you’ve found the perfect house. It has everything that you need and more, including that incredible walk-in closet that you’ve been dreaming about for years. However, don’t be so quick to make an offer. When you buy a house, you’re also buying a neighborhood. Here are four important questions you should ask before you submit an offer:

Featured Testimonial

by Leigh An

Working with Lisa and Melissa was wonderful from Day 1!

With my wife and I being 1st Time Home Buyers, Lisa guided us through the entire process and educated us without making us feel silly for not knowing how things worked. Even though we had put in an offer on a house we ended up walking away from, she fought for us the whole time and never once pushed us into a situation where we felt uncomfortable. Lisa was constantly supportive throughout our search and we eventually found our home! Now that the search was over, she guided us through the inspections and all the other hoops we had to jump through! Lisa was there with us at every point of the process and did so happily. Lisa even helped us in recommending our inspector, lender and attorney. With her broad network base, she has many recommendations and gladly connected us with the RIGHT people. She was so genuine throughout our entire experience with her! We are truly grateful to Lisa and her team for the wonderful (and dare I say easy!?) experience we had with Wenzel Select Properties. Lisa is a great source of knowledge and we would gladly recommend her and the team!

Five Easy Steps to a Lush Lawn

 

Lawn-revitalization projects are surprisingly easy to do, so whether you’re selling your home or staying put and wanting to enjoy your property more, it’s a worthwhile investment. The experts at Grass Seed USA, a coalition of grass-seed farmers and academic turf specialists, offer the following five simple steps to achieving a lush lawn quickly:

1. Aerate. When the soil under a lawn becomes too compacted, water, air, and nutrients have a hard time reaching grass roots. Lawn aerators correct this problem by pulling small plugs of soil about 1/2 inch in diameter and 2– 3 inches deep out of the ground. You can… Read More
