We are in our third week of July for Summer of 2007.   The Weather has been Sunny, bright, and delightful.  Sure we have had some very humid days, but statistically we have had less rain, and more cool evenings than previous Summers.

How does this affect the Real Estate Market in The Northern, and Pascack Valley, and All of Bergen County?  How busy are Real Estate Agents?  Are Buyers buying? Sellers selling? How many Open Houses are there throughout New Jersey?   You can’t drive through New Jersey on a Sunday without passing by the numerous Real Estate signs with Balloons, Flags, and arrows pointing in the direction of which Open House you should visit.   I had appointments to show homes to my Buyers today, and as I drove by all of these signs, and homes for sale, there wasn’t much activity.  It was a magnificent day.  No humidity, Sunny, just perfect!  After showing several homes of which only one one was having an Open House, I decided to stop by a few Open Houses to visit my Realtor friends, and preview some of the homes I haven’t had a chance to see. I visited a home in Norwood. It was 3:30, and So far The Realtor had one visitor. They saw the sign, and were curious, but the house was out of their price range.  I got back in my car, and passed by another Realtor Friend in Old Tappan.  It was now 3:45.  There had been 2 visitors.  Their Realtors had sent them because they didn’t have the time.  My last stop was in River Vale.  There were 2 visitors who said they were passing by.

 The Internet is changing the way Buyers’ are buying homes.  With all of the web sites, NJMLS.com, Realtor.com, Coldwell Banker.com, Homes.com, HarmonHomes.com, Craigslist.com,PaulaClarkRealtor.com, NorthernNewJerseyHomes.com, Buyers are logging on to the Internet, and previewing Virtual Tours, clicking on all of the pictures….  You can look at the homes from the side of your pool, lake, or beach house.

If you wait to see a home at an Open House, Chances are you will miss it.

Serious about looking for a Home?  Call a Top Realtor.  How do you know they are a Top Realtor?  Check out the Internet, do your homework.  E mail them, and see how long it takes them to respond. Interview them.  You must enjoy working with them.  First, and foremost, Once you decide to work with them,  Do they call you about a house that just came on the market? Are they returning your calls?  Or are you noticing that there are many homes you see on the Internet that they haven’t called you about? 

Your Realtor should be a full time Realtor.  If you are going to find the perfect home, you will need a perfect Realtor.

Do Realtor Open Houses Sell Homes??  I think not.
Realtors sell homes!
