About Me
Hello! You are looking at real estate sites, so you might be looking for a change in your life! I love change - and love to help people through the process of changing where they live. Houses have always fascinated me, and it is fun to see how different people live in their homes, and how they pick the perfect "new" home.

At the same time, I am a realist, and bring that realism to real estate transactions. In addition to promoting the positives of a seller's current property, I help them understand the impact of the negative aspects, and reduce their impact. For buyers, I first help them get approval for financing, and then focus on the best possible properties in their price range.

What does it cost to maintain a pool in St. Cloud, FL

Susan Wesely answered:
This is the price in the MLS. It's a 1965 property. You should remember that "Manufactured" is not necessarily "mobile". Please feel free to email if you have further questions - I'll get answers for you. - Tue Oct 7 2008, 14:08

What is the required size for lots in Oshkosh?

Susan Wesely answered:
minimum width 60 feet, minimum depth 100 feet, minimum area 7200 square feet. I've included a link to the city's zoning ordinance. Most cities now have this information available on the internet. Check out chapter 30 and the addendum. - Wed Sep 17 2008, 08:53

Should I buy a house or condo?

Susan Wesely answered:
Brizjette - I don't have any answers for you (sorry), but I do have some more questions that may help you decide. How much longer are the young adults likely to be living with you? How much financial contribution will they provide in the near future? In later years? WIll they help with household maintenance (either actually doing the work or helping you pay for it)? Are any of you experienced at handling normal household repairs, or would you have to hire help? If you moved further out, would you be the only one commuting? How do total commute costs compare to in-town condo fees?

You can minimize your risk of buying a "lemon" of a house by having it inspected - your Realtor should make sure there is an inspection contingency in your offer. And there are homeowner insurance policies that cover the mechanicals for the first year - you could ask the seller to buy one for you, or do it yourself.

Congratulations on your looking into the financial picture before you make a commitment to buy - it's a wise move. And best of luck in your search for a new home. - Wed Sep 17 2008, 08:18
