Banks are starting to move on more short sales...

Banks are starting to move on more short sales recently, and that is good for everyone.  A 'short sale' is a sale that takes place while the property is in the pre-foreclosure process, where the bank accepts less than what is owed on the mortgage principal in lieu of foreclosing.  There is a great article on what is happening and how it is impacting everyone around the country here.  I think you will agree, the numbers are somewhat staggering.


Houses that go through the entire foreclosure process sit empty longer, are worth less, and bring down neighborhood values more than necessary in most cases.  Foreclosures are now very much here in Delaware just as they are in other parts of the country.  Many local communities are being impacted directly by homes in foreclosure.


If you know someone that might be in the pre-foreclosure stages of owning a home, please have them call me.  We often can help them save money and time while also lessening the impact of the situation on their personal credit, not to mention the community.

Down the Brandywine...

In an effort to take advantage of this fantastic weather we have been having, our family headed out on Saturday morning for an impromptu trip down the Brandywine River in our canoe.  The greater Wilmington Area offers many ways to get out and experience the wonderful outdoors.

We put the boat in the water off of Northbrook Road in Unionville, Pennsylvania.  This spot is located just downstream of the Northbrook Canoe Company.  Here we are just getting started, with a great journey ahead.

This absolutely stunning steel and concrete contemporary home was constructed last year.  We watched the progress during construction and now it is complete.  The property is truly fantastic, with more windows than you can imagine.  This home is truly a work of art.  You may click on the photos for a better

The boys had a wonderful day on the water, taking turns paddling and simply relaxing while enjoying the ride.

The finish line!  Thompson's Bridge is a true local landmark.  Recently rebuilt, the updated bridge is now more beautiful than ever. 

This trip may be too long for some people just starting out canoeing or kayaking.  There are other start and stop points all along the river.  If you decide to head out, do some research, make a good plan, and enjoy yourself.  You will be glad you did!
