Live, Work and Play in the BEAUTIFUL Northland...MORTGAGE RATES HIT AN ALL TIME LOW!

Mortgage Rates Hit an All-Time Low:
Average interest on a 30-year fixed mortgage fell to an all-time low of 4.69 percent this week, down from 4.75 percent a week ago, reports Freddie Mac.

It's a buyers market. Here are a few things to remember when trying to sell your home:

• Buyers make a decision about a house within the first 60 seconds - Curb Appeal matters.
• Homes sell for three (3) reasons: LOCATION, HOW IT SHOWS and PRICE
• Unfinished projects and deferred maintenance can kill a deal.

I encourge both the prospective buyer and seller to determine their budget and with the help of their Realtor; check out the comparable homes in the area. You may be surprised at what is out there. Your Real Estate professional may suggest you consult with a Home Stage Professional or Interior Decorator (most charge a small consultation fee) but it may be well worth it in the long run. I have also added several links that offer great, realtively inexpensive ideas to help sell your home. 

Finally, I hope you all have the chance to get out and enjoy the sunshine!
