I'm not a real estate agent; I'm Jim Samuel, a mortgage broker with 1st Metropolitan Mortgage. You're smart to sell your house on your own. I don't charge a commission when you sell your house. But I think if you partner with me, you can sell your house faster. I ask to place a sign on your lawn, next to your FSBO sign that says NEW HOME MORTGAGES or REFINANCE 100% FINANCE (IN RED) NO INCOME VERIFICATION (IN RED) Call 732-605-1362 (small print, required legalese) 1st Metropolitan Mortgage Corp. 63 Milltown Road East Brunswick, NJ 08816 Equal Housing Opportunity. Programs subject to change. Certain restrictions apply. Some programs may not be combined with others. The intent of the sign is to encourage people who may not think they can swing your house to call one of us to explore the possibilities. If they call me, I'll encourage them to buy your house. We can also co-op an open house. I will attend the open house, and I will bring my laptop to prequalify prospective buyers. If we can get buyers' paperwork started on the spot, wouldn't that help? If you don't have a fact sheet in a holder on your lawn, I'll help you create the fact sheet, if you like, and I can supply the holder. We can mail the fact sheet to your friends and family, if you want; maybe they will know a potential buyer. I can also give you staging advice, if I may. Please give me a call on 732-605-1362, or on my cell 908-421-6151, and let's chat. Best wishes, Jim Samuel mortgages.consultant@yahoo.com http://jerseyjim4.tripod.com Hello, I saw your FSBO listing.

I don't hate them just the tricky and unexperienced ones. Which in my opinion is most of them. Take the "no obligation market evaluation" for example, the oldest and most unoriginal term you will see advertised. Do they think people are stupid? The real definition should be, “yes I will come over to your home, tell you what it’s worth, then I will bug the hell out of you until you list it with me". In the meantime, they will send you some “awesome” fridge magnets, calendars and pencils just so you don’t them. I have written at length about this, I'm NOT selling anything, just a frank, real world discussion. I don’t believe a thing real estate agents say.

Very disturbing, but probably not atypical for this area. Alexander Downer: Yes, property taxes in Butler have gone up almost 18-20% in the last 2-3 years.

But looking at property taxes, they seem to be much higer since few years ago when I was there. Nice one.
