Gift Ideas for Real Estate Investors and First-Time Homebuyers

Need a few gift ideas? Good stocking stuffers? If you have friends, family, or clients who are thinking of investing in rental property, help them out with one or more of the following books:

And if you know of someone who is renting their home and might like to invest in a home of their own, perhaps someone who is about to be a new graduate, here are a couple of good gift choices:

And for any friends in the real estate sales business, here’s a good one:

This is a great book, however you may want to pick it up for yourself rather than risk offending a friend with the title!

Happy shopping, and happy holidays! Let me know of other good ideas that you have, as I still have a bit of shopping to do myself.

The Tao of Annapolis Real Estate

When will the local real estate market hit bottom and values resume their upward climb?  What will be the impact of the federal bailout?  Whose opinion should you listen to?  Said Lao Tzu, “Those who have knowledge, don’t predict. Those who predict, don’t have knowledge.”

While we may not know when the market will turn, we do know that today offers tremendous buying opportunities – low interest rates, lots of inventory, and motivated sellers.  And we live in a great place to own real estate, near our nation’s capital, paradise by the Chesapeake Bay.

If your long-term financial plan includes acquiring more real estate, observe the yin and yang – the dark chaos is accompanied by tremendous opportunity.  Are you focused on the gloom or present to the opportunity?

Don’t miss the moment.

Some of our clients are now negotiating great deals to acquire properties with 100% owner financing and with lease-options, some are leverage existing assets to create down payments and getting great rates with bank financing.  And many are waiting.

“When the highest type of men hear Tao,
They diligently practice it.
When the average type of men hear Tao,
They half believe in it.
When the lowest type of men hear Tao,
They laugh heartily at it.
Without the laugh, there is no Tao.”

– Lao-tzu, The Way of Lao-tzu

Free Money for Annapolis Non-Profits – Act Now – They're Giving it Away!

The end of the fiscal year often results in last-minute dashes, and I just learned about a great opportunity through a colleague in the Rotary Club of Annapolis. Commerce Bank is expanding to the Annapolis area, and as part of their commitment to actively supporting our community, they offer grants, sponsorships, and community development and service programs.
According to Commerce Bank’s Annapolis Manager and Assistant Vice President Jen Simon, the bank’s funds for this year are not fully allocated, and these programs are not yet well-known locally, so we have a great window of opportunity for funding projects that benefit local residents. As are result of Jen Simon’s recent efforts to get the word out, many of our local non-profits are now busy writing grant applications – which are due this week!
More information and an on-line application are available at http://www.commerceonline.com/communityrelations/overview.cfm
Let me know if you’d like more details, as I’ll be learning more over the next few days. We’re putting together an application for the Rotary Club of Annapolis, and I’d love to come up with a project to support affordable housing, a growing issue in Annapolis and Anne Arundel County, especially as federal backing for 100% financing is vanishing. And it would be a pleasure if this news is of benefit to you, or a non-profit that you support, so let me know!

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
