Also, if you are thinking about second homes or a retirement move , my area of expertise is Birch Bay, WA, which is on a warm summer bay and located just 6 miles from the Canadian border--handy for shopping, sailing, hiking, skiing and.... It is straight up I-5 and +/- 2 hrs from Seattle. No ferries. There are some beautiful opportunities.

When should someone get preapproved for a mortgage?

Asked Sat May 12 2007, 17:39 by Seattle Mort… - Seattle - Home Buying - 24 answers

Maggie Weissman answered:

When you decide that you want to look for a home you should consult your banker and a reputable mortgage broker to determine how much you can spend on housing. It benefits you because you don't go out looking for champagne on a beer budget and get disappointed. Also, when you do decide you are going to make an offer on a home you have more 'power' with the buyer when they can see that you have been pro-approved. I, personally, do not like to take anyone out looking for homes unless they have begun this process. It tells me that they are serious.

I understand what 'realestate pro in Los Angeles' is talking about but that is not the position that most people find themselves in. Once you know what you can afford according to the lender YOU decide how much you want to spend on the purchase of a home. Any reputable realtor will follow your wishes. - Tue May 20 2008, 23:04

What is holding people back from buying?

Asked Fri May 9 2008, 12:01 by Mary Anzalone - Manchester - Market Conditions - 11 answers

Maggie Weissman answered:

Fear. Fear of recession, fear of the sky falling, fear of feeling a fool because they feel like they didn't wait until the very lowest price, fear of having to sell their existing home, fear of losing their jobs, fear about gas and food prices,...etc. And, too many choices--making decisions is hard for many and the more choices there are the harder it is to come to a conclusion. Yes, prices are good for buyers and the interest rates are low. However, these things do not overcome the fears. So, we just get to do what we can do to change those thoughts and then wait for the national fear frenzy to get over. Then we need to relax and enjoy the coming summer! - Tue May 20 2008, 22:42

Featured Listings on Trulia

Asked Mon May 19 2008, 09:50 by Mark Roncone - All locations - Agent2Agent - 7 answers

Maggie Weissman answered:

How does one know? I have 3 featured listings and they are getting hits. I don't know if they are more than just plain listings because I have nothing to compare. However, I am not getting any inquiries off these and wish that I were. It is very hard to gauge. The featured listings themselves are not very expensive, so I figured it would be worth it somehow. - Tue May 20 2008, 22:26
