Aug 26th, 2008 | By DebOnTheWeb | Category: Real Estate

It seems like the more time that goes by, the busier we all get. When I first started selling real estate in 1991, we used big books from our MLS that had grainy black and white photos of houses for sale. There was only one exterior photo and very little information about the [...]

1st Page of Google Helps Sell Houses

Jul 15th, 2008 | By DebOnTheWeb | Category: Real Estate

Foreclosures are on the rise, prices have dropped significantly and everything the media has to say is doom and gloom. There is one big difference, though and that is interest rates. [...]

May 8th, 2008 | By DebOnTheWeb | Category: Real Estate

At last night’s Sellers’ Seminar, one of the many points we talked about is the fact that the real estate market in Medford, Somerville, and Malden is not all “doom and gloom” as the media would have us think.
