About Me

From starter homes to dream homes to multi-million dollar commercial properties, I’ve handled them all. Are you relocating? Call about my free bed & breakfast-style invitation to stay 2 days and 2 nights (for out-of-town clients). Are you an agent looking to join another firm? How about being paid the same day as closings? Give me a call at 901-795-1425 and find out why our retention rate is nearly 100% year after year....no one wants to leave "Mom" and you won't either. For more about me visit my bio page http://www.danstewartrealtors.com/joyce.html. You can also email me at danstewartpi@aol.com.

Joyce answered:

You can do a FHA 203K loan, which is a rehab loan. You still have to put down a downpayment and they will escrow the repair monies. We spoke to a mortage firm here (they work with 140 lenders) to get this info. If you any help, please call me at 901-486-2923. - Tue Apr 22 2008, 11:59

Why are property taxes so high in the 38125 and other areas?

Asked Fri Apr 18 2008, 11:58 by Helen - 38125 - Home Selling - 4 answers

Joyce answered:

Hi Helen, if I were you, I would consider Fayette County......either north (Eads, Oakland) or south (Piperton, Rossville). Those are the areas we know of people really enjoying their retirement (friends, colleagues, clients). I haven't heard of anyone we know of going to Tipton County, so I can't speak to that.....but that doesn't mean that area doesn't have something to offer. By the way, for a neat offer if you're relocating, please visit http://www.danstewartrealtors.com/relocation. If you'd like some more info about Memphis (dining, shopping, etc), you might want to check out http://www.danstewartrealtors.com/about_memphis. On that page, you'll find info about Memphis, TN being selected by AARP as one of five "great places to retire" (2006). If you go to http://www.danstewartrealtors.com/about_memphis2, you'll see a 2007 report (CNNMoney.com) that names Memphis as the #1 housing market, based on affordability. This was part of a larger survey on the best places to retire (Memphis was cited as a hot spot). Good luck and please contact me at 901-486-2923 if you have any questions. - Mon Apr 21 2008, 01:25

Our home has been on the market for 2 1/2 months. We also have had several showings, but no offers. Our

Asked Tue Apr 15 2008, 06:58 by Chris - Arlington - Home Selling - 11 answers

Joyce answered:

$82/SF sounds like you have it reasonably-priced, but in this soft market, we're seeing even nice homes (partial stacked stone exterior, quartz countertops, bronze fixtures, etc) go for $70-75 SF. April is Open House month, meaning there's a lot of people who waited until winter was over to put their home on the market. In Lakeland, for example, we did some comps for a client and showed them 48 similar homes on the market in the immediate area. Some homes are sellihg and other aren't.....why? Some might look nicer inside, but often price is the motivating factor. It's hard to tell what's going on with your home but I can tell you there are a large number of homes, in your price range, in MLS. The key to success is an aggressive real estate agent. For example, we are a buyer's rep firm, meaning we have more buyer contacts than listings. That's why our sales have been up for months. It only takes one buyer...good luck! - Sat Apr 19 2008, 09:23

What area is best for short term investment in Memphis?

Asked Thu Apr 3 2008, 06:55 by Maria - Midtown - Home Buying - 5 answers

Joyce answered:

When are you planning your move? Obviously it's a buyer's market right now but things are on the upswing. Until recently we were licensed in GA and from the relatives we have there I think you'll be pleasantly suprised at what midtown Memphis has to offer in terms of price. For example, in the Evergreen Historic District, we have a 4 bedr/2 bath home for only $144,900 (MLS#3108360)...that's just one example you can look up by MLS# on realtor.com. Of course, that's one of our lsitings and the price has been reduced for a quick sale (usually Midtown prices are higher). Please contact me at 901-486-2923 if you have any questions....and if you'd like to stay at our bed-and-breakfast during a visit to Memphis (no cost to you), please let us know :) - Thu Apr 3 2008, 22:53

Joyce answered:

I would definitely look at Lakeland or Arlington. You can read reviews of the schools in those two suburbs by visiting http://"www.danstewartrealtors.com/about_memphis" and clicking on Shelby County Schools. You may want to visit http://"www.danstewartrealtors.com/relocation" for a neat offer. We've helped relocate U.S. Naval Bureau of Personnel....and many others. - Tue Apr 1 2008, 21:49
