Do you have any Englishtown forclosures that is a cottage for commerical use?

Asked Sun Nov 16 2008, 07:07 by Cathy - Englishtown - Foreclosure - 4 answers

Glenn & Jillian Mason answered:

Cathy-there is one other foreclosure in which the deed restriction just got listed, however, the asking price is 499k. There are also two other commercial buildings for sale in Englishtown, both over 1 million. - Yesterday, 11:50

Hi Cathy. There are only four properties available in all of Englishtown. One is a foreclosure and is located on Main St. It is not zoned for commercial, however, you can look into obtaining a variance to have it zoned commercial. Englishtown is very strict with their zoning though. If you need any help, feel free to contact me.

What is the forecast for englishtown over the next few months? Will prices increase/decrease? I'd like to

Asked Thu Nov 6 2008, 16:24 by Carlyn - Englishtown - Home Buying - 6 answers

Glenn & Jillian Mason answered:

Hi Carlyn. As stated before, I still believe that Englishtown will remain steady in pricing. Real estate is so local that each town is different. Agents who are saying there will be a 5-10 percent decline may be right in their specific area. As of today, all of Englishtown has four homes available. With only four homes on the market, there is not an abundance of inventory to drive prices down. You don't live free anywhere so if Englishtown is your choice of area, I say buy now. Best of luck. - Yesterday, 11:47

Englishtown is such a small town that I don't see it making a difference. There are not many homes available there as it is, so the prices cannot be affected as much unless there is a huge supply and no demand. My personal opinion-expect them to remain steady. If you need any help, call me.

Are the Trade-up Buyers seeing the benefit of selling their home in this market? Many trade-up buyers who I've

Asked Tue Nov 11 2008, 14:09 by Joseph T. Ko… - 08844 - Home Selling - 2 answers

Glenn & Jillian Mason answered:

Hey Joe. We saw the benefit ourselves and took advantage of the market to trade up in May, however, I agree with you that it is very difficult to get clients to see the benefits. Most people are stuck on how little their home is worth. I'd say the majority of my clients are downsizing, not upgrading. I think with the current economy right now, most people will still be hesitant to trade up. Maybe you should contact the new housing campaign in NJ, "Now's A Great Time to Buy", and see if they can do a commercial for the benefits of upgrading in today's market. - Tue Nov 11 2008, 14:25

What should I offer on short sale?

Asked Sun Nov 9 2008, 18:50 by Jai Hind - 08857 - Home Buying - 9 answers

Glenn & Jillian Mason answered:

Jai-I've already placed an offer on this property (higher than what you are thinking) for a client and it was denied. The bank will not counter your offer. The only other end unit in the complex is overpriced at 459k. Fair value for that townhome in my opinion is 350, and as you said, once you put in the 25k, you'll have a great end unit for lower than what the middle units are selling for (380-390k). I would suggest an offer of 335-340 and see if the bank will work with you on that. You might think for a short sale you can get lower, but it's still a great deal at that price and well worth it!
