How many people does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Posted by AudreyForshey on April 11th, 2008

light-bulb.jpgWalmart is being proactive during the month of April and Earth Day.  They have put out many commercials to get us to wake up and know we can make a big difference.  Yes, we can all make a difference one person at time.  In this case one light bulb at time. They have figured out that if all of their 200 million consumers change just one light bulb to the energy efficient bulbs would be like taking 11 million cars off of the road for one year!

Wow, that is pretty powerful to think that one little light bulb could make such a difference?  So, lets try for an entire package and see where what improvements we can make as a group!

This got me thinking.  Scary, but it did.  I am big for giving settlement gifts.  I think that I will now add a pack of energy efficient light bulbs to each settlement gift for each clientand see if I can get even more folks to change these bulbs.  I would also urge them to have their friends and family do the same!  I am thinking that I will take them to the walk through and change them right then and there so they don’t lay around the house.

What if we all added a pack of energy light bulbs to help the cause?  I encourage you all to “give a pack” of energy efficient bulbs to your clients at settlement!! 

Even if you are not buying or selling any real estate these days, we should all work together and leave a smaller “foot print” on our planet earth. I encourage you to make the trek to the nearest store and get your energy efficient bulb and start making a difference today!

Posted by AudreyForshey on March 6th, 2008

cherry-jefferson-mem.jpgIf you have never seen the Cherry Blossoms along the Tidal Basin in Washington DC, youare missing one of nature and man’s most breathtaking  sights!!  Every year the parks services work at trying to predict the peak of the blossoms.  This year they are anticipating March 29th!  If you have a chance you should try at least once in your lifetime to come to Washington during the early part of Spring to see it.  

Not only is it just viewing the blossoms, it is an entire festival the Official Cherry Blossom Website .  There are walks, and tours, there is also a big parade. You can kill two birds with one stone and visit the Nation’s Capital.  

Washington DC has several hip trendy neighborhoods with fabulous restaurants and shopping.  Even locals flock to see the beauty of the Cherry Blossoms.

There are endless things to do here.  Take in a show at the Kennedy Center  it will as big as any New York show, Smithsonian Museums with some of the great art and wonders of the world.  You should consider coming to DC and experience this fabulous gift of nature!

If you can’t make it this year, try to add this to your “bucket list” to make sure you see it in your lifetime!

Hope you can make it!

Cool Radio for your computer

Posted by AudreyForshey on March 5th, 2008

logo_pandora.jpgWe just found this really neat website for music.  It is www.Pandora.com .  You sign up, it is free, it feeds through your computer.  The really fun thing about it is if you want to listen to a certain genre, then it play music from different artists of that genre.  So if you are in the mood for Jack Johnson, then you will get a mix of Donavan Frankerieter, or Matt Costa.  If you like Country, that is what it plays.  No commercials that I heard? Really cool.

I know you youngsters have known about this, but for me this is really great. Thought I would share it with the rest of you that have not heard of it. 

Have a good evening.  Check it out, I hope you enjoy it.

Choosing your first REALTOR(R)

Posted by AudreyForshey on March 5th, 2008

So you are thinking about buying your first home and you are not sure where to start?   The first thing you should consider is the agent. This is the person that is going to be your advocate and will represent and guide you through the transaction. Get referrals from friends and family that have purchased and sold real estate.  Look on the internet; see if anyone appeals to you. 

When you make your initial call to the agent ask them if they do a buyer consultation prior to looking at houses.  You will want to work with an agent who does this.  It will prepare you for the transaction.  You will be a more confident buyer and have a smoother transaction.

You should have a list of question that are important to you and make sure you get clear answers from the agent.  These are some of the basic items you should expect to cover in a buyer consultation appointment.   

I give my potential clients a buyer packet.  It has local area information, information about me, and a blank copy of the forms we will go over and that you will be asked to sign.  I also include a home buyer’s guide that has a copy of the contract that you will sign, a HUD-1 and a glossary of terms.

  • The agent should give you a clear understanding of who represents whom in the transaction, how the agents are paid. Together, you should go over the Buyer Broker Agreement but not pressured to sign it.  Remember, you are interviewing the agents.  You should be able to walk away and digest the information.  If the agent is the one you want to work with, you will call them and let them know “they got the job”.
  • Your potential agent should be able to discuss and explain your closing costs.  You may ask if in your market is it customary for sellers to pay any of these fees.
  • You should get an idea of what your approximate monthly payment will be and how it is broken down.  You will confirm this information with a professional lender, but the agent should be able to explain the basics to you.
  • The agent should be able to give you a couple of lender names so that you may then call and confirm the closing fees and compare interest rates.
  • This is the time to ask about inspections and what they entail, who pays for what and what items would the seller be responsible for as far as repairs go?
  • Make sure you feel you have clear communication with the agent.  Tell the agent the best way to communicate with you. 

I wish you luck in your endeavor in buying your first home.  Being prepared by an experienced, capable agent will be the key to smooth transaction.  I am located in Montgomery County Maryland in the Gaithersburg area. No matter where you are, if you have questions, shoot me an email and I will answer your questions to the best of my ability!

Do you have Umbrella Insurance?

Posted by AudreyForshey on February 29th, 2008

Please make sure you have an umbrella policy.  We all know that we live in such a litigious society.  You may require have an enhanced auto policy for carrying people in your car .  Well, that is all well and good, but if you get into a car accident, whether or not it is your fault, you know what is coming.  Many people will sue.

I was on tour last Tuesday when a group of us were out and the discussion of umbrella policies came up and I was surprised to learn that many people don’t even know what they are?

You can protect yourself by purchasing an umbrella insurance policy to keep you covered on many fronts.  In my state a policy for $1 million will cost, in the neighborhood of $300 to $400ish?  Depending on your worth you can buy policies for more protection.  It is so minimal in the grand scheme of things.  Why would you not protect yourself and your family? 

I am a real estate agent, not an insurance broker, please contact your insurance agent for your specific needs and details and start protecting yourself and family today.
