Dealing with the wild and crazy market

The stock market sure has been wild over the last week.  Headlines about major market moves always make me think about where my money is invested, and what to do next.

I’ve talked to some excellent financial planners in the last few days, who are in touch with quite a few people.  I thought they might be busy helping worried clients, and they all said that they only heard from a few. That’s a good sign that they have advised their clients to expect and be ready for market ups and downs, to plan accordingly, and they are weathering the storm.

I’m curious… what’s your take on the market, and what to do about it?

Is it time to refinance any real estate, while the rates are still low?

Is it time to buy or sell something?  Do you want more of your wealth in a hard asset like real estate?  If so, what type?  Or do you want to sell something to be in a stronger financial position?

Do you have a good financial planner to advise you?  If so, would you be willing to introduce us, so that I can expand my network of resources?  If not, I would be happy to refer you to a good one.  It’s important to get the best advice that you possibly can.

And if you want to make any real estate moves, you know who to call, right?  In terms of the local real estate market, showings have been slow in the last few weeks with last-minute vacations and play, and getting the kids back in school.  I expect showings and new listings to pick up now, because for anyone who wants to move this year, it’s time to get going.

Have a great weekend!

P.S. Considering a move?  Please call for a confidential chat.  Your personal needs, wants, and finances are my priority and my passion and my specialties run from waterfront luxury estates to distressed properties.

Call me today for your Annapolis real estate needs, or for an introduction to a great real estate agent anywhere.

Naval Academy Commissioning Week

Next week is commissioning week at the US Naval Academy so Annapolis will be humming with activity and visitors.

And the great news is that the Blue Angels are returning!  I love their air shows –  it’s so awe-striking when those jets fly overhead, and the skill of the Navy pilots is amazing.

The rehearsal will be Tuesday afternoon at around 2, and the show Wednesday at 2.  Would you like to join me for the rehearsal?  It’s a fun insider event; the locals know to watch this one and beat the crowds.

And, since this is a real estate blog, if you want the insider scoop on Annapolis real estate, ask me about that!  Lots of listings are coming up and not yet on the market; sometimes homes are selling before they are listed.  You can see one in the post before this one, that is getting ready to go into the MLS, and may sell first.

Here are some client reviews of Carlyn Lowery…

“Carlyn got us a quick sale above the asking price. She qualified prospects well, used a professional photographer for advertising photos, and provided expert advice during negotiations. Carlyn is what other Realtors aspire to be!”
– Paul Donnelly

“As first time home buyers, Carlyn Lowery was very attentive to our basic needs of walking us through each step of the home buying process from a novice standpoint. The long detailed list of items due at specific times from the start of the contract all the way through to the week of closing was greatly appreciated. It was great having an agent who took the time to clearly lay this all out for us. End result – a very smooth time at settlement. No surprises!”
– Ann Hannam

“We wanted a professional who would work with us to sell our home
quickly for a good price and protect our interests as sellers through the process.
Carlyn’s business acumen is her (and will be your) greatest asset.”
– Sue Bogard

“Carlyn was wonderful. She was organized, prepared, and knew the steps to take to sell our home quickly and used a wide array of marketing to get the job done. She gave great advice
during each of the phases, and in particular on the negotiation.”
– Michael Morgan
