Hartland Bar Problems

Today I was on my way back from working out, and decided to stop and get a bite to eat. In front of the restaurant I was going to get the paper. First I needed to figure out which one to get, and then it jumped out at me. A headline that has Hartland and Stripped in it are not what you would think of in Livingston County. Well I get the paper, read the article, and low and behold a bar owner in Hartland allowed some girls to strip down to their bras and panties. His reason for this was he is trying to save his business. Is this the best way to save a business? Maybe not, but the press is going to help him.

Novi Real Estate Client

I have a client that has been looking for a lakefront home for quite some time now. He is looking in the Brighton, Howell, and Hartland areas.

There are obviously a vast amount of lakes in that small area. Now take into consideration that we are not in the greatest market, and then think about what that means. Lots of homes for sale, and potentially foreclosure homes. This is good for my client, but not so good for others. This is about my client though not someone else. I am here to help him find the home he wants for the price they want to pay for it.

We currently have an offer in on a home on Crooked Lake. That's a good thing, because he really likes this house. How much better would it be to have 3 agents who have listings we have previously put offers in on, but for some reason or another were unable to get a locked up deal. All 3 agents said that they were reducing the price of each home, and wanted to let me know. I figured Christmas had come early for my client. I should know before the end of the day whether or not we will have a deal on Crooked, so I'll be back to post again and let everyone know.

I know that I have told you about me looking for a housein Brighton, so I am just like the rest of the buyers out there, I am looking for a good deal. There is a difference between getting a great deal, and trying to steal a home.

I have a client right now that is looking in Brighton, and he is a first time home buyer that is interested in a home that is move in ready, but has up to date materials.

Materials that are up to date consist of newer kitchen and bathrooms. The less work that you have to do in updating a home the better the value. Consider two homes that are priced with one at $250,000, and the second at $270,000, but home one needs new bathrooms, and a kitchen. Add up potential costs of $15-$20,000 for the kitchen, and $4-6,000 per bathroom. Which home ends up becoming the better value? I think that it's self explanitory.

This is a major thing to consider when looking at your next purchase. If you have any questions, or would like to search homes currently on the market in Novi just visit http://www.oaklandlivingston.com/.

Over the past few months I have focused on blogging which has helped my rankings with the major search engines. This has moved me up at a rapid pace, but don't think that this is very easy, because it is far from easy. There are a number of sites that do not give you a backlink. This has been a long and grueling process, but it has been very beneficial. I am still not thrilled with my conversion rate, which is what I am going to have to place more focus on. The conversion rate is the most important piece of the puzzle, because people can look at your site all day everyday, but if no one is putting their information in there is no point in paying for my webguy to host the site. If you are looking for a home in the Novi area then click the link, and search the MLS.

Novi Real Estate Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to all. It is not quite the end of the year yet, but when you start your Christmas shopping you get that feeling that the year is coming to a close. I will close a few deals out before the end of the year, and for Novi Real Estate I plan on it getting even better next year.

Novi Real Estate Quote

I have been looking for a house myself, but seemingly everytime I find one I have had a number of people writing offers as well. This has caused some people to bid more on a house which is how people and banks have gotten into problematic situations like not being able to sell if they need to or even if they want to. This made me think of something I was told when I was younger and still trying to make it playing hockey.

I had to dump all of my links, because linking to directories is not a good idea. My webguy says that it is considered link farming, and will help on an immediate level, but hurt in the long run. I was on the first page of msn, 2nd of yahoo, and 3rd of google, but now I'm not. This has caused me to make a change in my approach. The webmaster says I need to focus on blogging and getting links with other relavent sites. I have officially turned my attention to these and I am starting to see some results. I am back on the second page of yahoo, moving up steadily on google, but msn is not a fan of me again just yet.
