Our broker Jon Boyd Quoted in ABC Action News Online

A writer for Bankrate.com interviewed our broker Jon Boyd few months ago for an article he was working on about real estate language.

Specifically, the topic was things listing agents will say about their listings to try to catch the interest of home buyers. Hint: They are not always true.

These phrases were collected from our national association (naeba.org) and they are absolutely real.

Here is what you want to think about:

If a real estate agent routinely directs words like these to buyers, why would you ever want somebody like that being your buyer's agent or designated buyer's agent?

Just a thought to ponder as you search for Milford real estate.

ABC News picked up the interview and published it here.

Ann Arbor Real Estate Eyesore Coming Down

The old Ramada Inn building on Jackson Rd. Is being taken down. Good
news for the neighborhood

This is a big job and I saw three different excavators over there
getting the job started including a big Link Belt LS-5000.

Unfortunately I couldn't get a decent picture of that because of the
fence.

Top of The Park in Ann Arbor

ToTP is an annual thing in Ann Arbor where there are a bunch of free
evening concerts and performances and it is a lot of fun.

This is the first night this year and a band called NoMo is playing a
great set.

Bad electrical work

I'm out at an inspection today and it isn't a big deal, but this looks
like some typical homeowner wiring.

At least the actual joints are in wirenuts. It would have been a lot
worse if the had just been wrapped together and then electrial taped.

However any electrical joints like this should have been put in an
electrical box.

Buyers on a roof during an inspection

I think it is a good idea for someone to be on the roof with the home
inspector.

If the buyers don't want to go up I will.

Pulte and Centex, America's two largest builders, merging

Pulte and Centex, the two largest builders in the country, have decided to merge.

Both builders have been active in this area. Centex has a line of entry level homes and Pulte has targeted homes a little higher on the size scale. We've helped many buyers purchase home from both builders over the years.

This economic thing is really creating some unusual mergers.
