I just want to take minute to thank all of my clients who took a few minutes this past year to answer some questions about me from NH Magazine. Thanks to you I was voted one of the Top Real Estate Agents in NH based on service and customer satisfaction! My name appeared in NH Magazine’s 2011 Issue. I can not thank you all enough. I love what I do, and I am privileged to have had some amazing clients who I now refer to as good friends.

THANK YOU ALL, look forward to another great year in 2012!

Questions on Buying or Selling a home in NH??

Robert — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 14:31:57 +0000

Sometimes the hardest thing about buying or selling a home can be figuring out where to start. It’s crucial to have a support team around you that you TRUST (real estate agent, lender, inspector, etc). I’ve put together a comprehensive package for either selling or buying a home in Southern NH. I have attempted to simplify both processes and give you things to think about along the way. If you are able to create your own road map before starting the process it can really help your buying/selling experience go a lot smoother! If you have interest in any of my buyer or seller packages, shoot me an email or give me a call, I’ll send them over to you!

Things to do: Lake Winnipesaukee – New Hampshire

Robert — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 20:06:47 +0000

Looking for something to do this weekend in NH? Take a trip up to the Lakes Region and Lake Winnipesaukee! Just took a trip up and it is absolutely beautiful with the recent snowfall. Plenty of restaurants and shopping in the area (including the Tilton Outlets in Tilton, NH). I took this picture below this afternoon, the ice still is not completely frozen, weird winter in New England!

NH Rockingham County Housing Sales Stats – December 2011!

Robert — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 16:46:56 +0000

Rockingham NH (including Derry, Londonderry, Candia, Windham, Auburn and Chester) Residential home listings were up 15% from December 2010 with 227 homes placed on the market last month. The median sale price of all homes in the county was down over 11.5% compared to last December, but prices were slightly higher (.5 %) than November 2011. The averaqe days on the market for a home in the county is up to 117 days, which is slightly better than a year ago. For specific information on other counties in NH, please contact me! As you can see, with the availability of homes, the decline in prices, and the historic low interest rates, it’s certainly one of the best times ever to buy! For sellers, don’t let general national reports scare you…if you have the right home at the right price, it’s still a great time to sell, and there are plenty of benefits. Let me know if you have any questions on your specific property!

Hillsborough County NH Home Sale Stats – December 2011

Robert — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 17:08:58 +0000

Just like in Rockingham County, the numbers continue to show it’s a great time to be a home buyer!

In Hillsborough County (including Merrimack, Nashua, Bedford, Hudson, Litchfield, Pelham and more) home listings were up 17% over December 2010. With the bigger inventory, prices are down 10.3% over last December, with the media sale price at $174,900.00. The good news is while we are still down over a year ago, the monthly trends indicate that prices are slowly stabilizing if not starting to slightly rise, while the market continues to be very very active with buyers and sellers.

Which Stores will be at the Merrimack, NH Premium Outlets?

Robert — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 17:44:44 +0000

Scheduled to open in June 2012, it had remained a mystery which stores would occupy the new Merrimack NH Premium outlets…well thanks to the Merrimack Patch, we have found out a few of them!

List of Stores so far: Sak’s 5th Avenue’s OFF 5th, Nike, Gap, Hanes, Banana Republic, Reebok, Brooks Brothers, J. Crew, Coach, Ann Taylor Loft, Guess, Ann Taylor, Timberland, Talbots, Carter’s Babies and Kids, OshKosh B’Gosh, PacSun, Wilson Leather, Bose, Michael Kors, Ecko, Gymboree

The outlets are supposed to bring hundreds of jobs to Merrimack along with tax help to the city, which is great…but all I see is money out of my pocket when my wife gets a sight of this store list!

Look for more to be announced…or leak out…soon!
