What have prices done in recent years for vacation homes on Hood Canal?

Timm Lovitt answered:
I'm not too sure about vacation homes in Hood Canal, but I know condos are pretty warm. It seems like everytime I turn around someone else is buying a condo there. But condo markets are different then the housing markets and just because the condo market is warm doesn't mean the housing market is. Just look at Florida! - Fri Jul 27 2007, 20:09

Wow, there are a wide range of answers you have received. I guess it just depends on what your investment goals are. How much you want to make and the percentage of what you'd like to make back are big factors. But without knowing any of your goals I would have to agree with Ardell. Condos would be the way to go. Very little worries and minor maintaince and condos can make you some good money if you find them before everyone else does. - Fri Jul 27 2007, 20:04

Hi Meg. The answer is T and F. Where you will find your answer is in the next question? Who does your house appeal to? You will find out a lot of information by asking yourself that question. Not everyone has the means or the ability to properly maintain a pool and if you are trying to capture a market where that is the case then you may want to think again. If you are trying to increase the value of your home by doing projects around the house, there are less expensive and less risky ways of doing it. - Fri Jul 27 2007, 19:55

How important is it to see the realtors photo on ads and cards?

Timm Lovitt answered:
It is not important at all. If you're looking to find answers for yourself then consider this. How much time do you think you will waste by going out and having pictures done and then trying to pick out which one is best. Then you have to submit it to the business card company and wait for them to come in the mail. The name of this game is (besides learning everything that you possibly can) networking. Meeting as many people as you can and having them remember who you are. It's all in the numbers and if you don't go out and get those numbers then you're not really giving yourself a chance. You owe it to your clients and to your own career to give yourself the best chance to make that sell possible. Now go get 'em. - Fri Jul 27 2007, 19:38

It sounds like you may have stumbled onto either a builder who has run out of money or one who has the money to wait for a better offer. In either case don't feel trapped. Try to re-negoiate and if it doesn't work, take a minute to assess your situation. Do you have the money to cover the closing costs and not have it strain to tight on your budget? - Fri Jul 27 2007, 19:30
