I appreciate your business and referrals.
The off season is an ideal time to visit our beach neighbors. Â Yesterday, a leisurely bike ride along the Ocean City boardwalk…and a stop at Manco’s Pizza.
Interesting perspective of the ocean front homes (many new) along the way. Â Like here, the tear down trend continues.
Question: “When you live at the shore…where do you go on vacation?”
As much as we love and appreciate our surroundings, it’s still our place of work. Â So after a busy summer season, it’s time to look forward to a vacation.
Not surprising- we are drawn to other beach/island locations. Â With specific conditions: not too crowded, a nice beach, not too commercial (wait- that sounds like Avalon and Stone Harbor!)
We have traveled to many beautiful desinations over the years- with a week on a low key Caribbean island in our near future 😉
Look for our new Sale/Rental book in the Power Play Realty distribution boxes located around the island (including one directly in front of our office).
Glad to see that many property owners have secured or removed deck furniture as their use declines. Â An early fall storm is not uncommon. And last October, Sandy forced shore owners to rush down or hire someone to batten down the hatches.
Reminders:
1) Close and LOCK all windows (especially the casement style- they can vibrate open in the wind, and break)
2) Disconnect the hose from the outside faucet (I often see faucets left on by mistake; disconnect the hose, and make sure sure nozzle is off)
3) Secure the outside shower door and trash cans
Mortgage Interest Rates
Now, lenders are advertising rates 1/4 to 1/2 percent lower for jumbo loans.
Another nice boost for the shore real estate market.
If you would like to talk to an area mortgage representative regarding a purchase or re-finance, I am happy to provide recommendations.
