Try Before You Buy!
Not sure where you want to live yet? Need time to get familiar with the area and take your time finding the right home? Why not lease a place for the first year and see how you like it?
Pictured here is a great condo on the water in Millsboro, Delaware. Available for rent immediately for only $1,100/month. Over 65? The rent is only $1,000/month. You can have a boat right outside the back door or just relax on the large deck watch the boats float by. You can also walk into the town of Millsboro. No maintenance to worry about and the condo fee is included in the rent. Read More.

Investment Property to Retirement Home
You know where you want to be, you've found a really good deal but you're not yet ready to retire ... what to do? Rather than miss out on a great opportunity, you could buy that property now and rent it out for a year or two or until you are ready to retire and move. Compared to stocks and bonds, the best investment right now is real estate. This townhome is currently rented for $14,400/year and the lease runs through April 2012. The current lease must be honored, but maybe that gives you all the time you need to get your home sold and be ready to move to Coastal Delaware. Read More.

Walk to defeat ALS!
This is the second year I will walk with "Gene's Machine" in the ALS Walk in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. Mary Ann Wollter is a client and a friend of mine who lost her husband Gene to this disease. I did not know Gene but I have come to know his family and friends. At last year's walk I was amazed at the number of people I know personally that have lost a friend, family member or loved one to ALS. If there is a walk scheduled in your area, I hope you will participate and make a donation. If you are here and would like to join Gene's Machine, I know that Mary Ann and her family would be so grateful. To sign up or make a donation, CLICK HERE! Thank you.

 What makes a chef?
It takes more than a list of ingredients to make me a chef! When asked if I can cook, I often say "I can follow a recipe". I can do the simple things pretty well. I don't undercook or overcook and I know what I like. When I watch a chef put together a meal, however, I realize there's a big difference. What about a good builder? I used that analogy recently with a client of mine who asked me how to tell the difference between the builders because they all say "we are green" and "we are the best". A list of ingredients, I replied, does not mean that the builder is committed to building you a quality home. It takes more than advertising and a good sales pitch. It takes a commitment to quality, a reputation built over time and the respect of other professionals. The builders I recommend are the ones that consistently deliver on their promise, build a good home and have a company culture that prioritizes customer service. Something can always go wrong with any builder, but the difference is how they handle the problems and do the right thing. |
