Housing Sales in 2018 – A Rising Trend

Inventory is down & sale prices of single family homes are up!

A Comprehensive Real Estate Market Analysis for the City of Newburgh, NY

Historic Newburgh NY

The City of Newburgh, NY housing market is making great progress!

A promising real estate outlook is on the horizon for Newburgh, NY this spring. The sale of single family homes is on the rise. There are major changes happening in the housing market in the City of Newburgh with both single and multifamily home sales. This trend has increased over the last twelve months as investors are spending more time and money in the area. Not only are investors taking this plunge into the area, we are seeing many new transplants moving in and calling Newburgh home.

Owners needing to sell are happy as the competition to sell is slim and their is an increased number of buyers looking to be a part of the community. Equity in many Newburgh homes is on the rise. Many thought that they were doomed to a foreclosure or a short-sale as their way out post the bubble are now pleasantly happy with the results. Owner occupied homes are a great sign that the area is blossoming and becoming more prosperous. New businesses are growing, and resulting in more owner occupied homes. Newburgh has a following that has not been seen since I moved in to the area in 1983

Abandoned homes are still part of the landscape in Newburgh. Many years of neglect left homes in disrepair, creating problems for the city. As those properties are finding owners and solutions, the neighborhoods are sprouting some amazing changes. Short sales and foreclosures are fewer and there is even a new construction subdivision near I 84. Believe it or not the demand for owning a home has created this demand. Affordable housing is always welcome in the area. Close proximity to the highway and transportation are a plus for first time home buyers. Not everything in the city is part of the historic district, and contributes to the charm and diverse style of available housing.

City of Newburgh Ny Housing Market updates

All of Orange County is seeing limited inventory of homes. Newburgh is no exception. Buyers need to be ready, willing and able to pounce on a new listing to find something that works for them. Days on market does vary a bit. Accepted offers come in within days and a buyer can easily be turned down for a showing, prior to the home actually going to contract. A properly price home in great condition will have multiple offers. Interest rates have begun to rise and with more increases predicted this year buyers are looking to find a home before it’s too late.

Tips on Searching for a Home in The Hudson Valley

October 30, 2017 by Janis Borgueta Leave a Comment

The Hudson Valley is a GREAT Choice!

Cities and Towns, Hamlets and Villages – Make The Hudson Valley is your new place to call home.

With so much information on the Hudson Valley, figuring out how to find the best place to call home can be a major issue. The advice I give to clients is to partner with one real estate agent that knows how to guide and allows you to make those decisions. Clients tell me that they are overwhelmed. Frequently I receive calls from potential buyers currently living in Brooklyn, the Bronx and other more distant corners of New York State and beyond. A good number of my phone calls, emails and even text messages inquire about living in The Hudson Valley.

Many people from NYC and out of state are looking to leave their current location and move to The Hudson Valley. Picturesque and affordable, our way of life outside of New York City has become most appealing! There are so many great places to live, but with so many places to choose from there needs to be some sort of organized process. Where should you begin? I recommend that my clients start by sorting out what you don’t want.

The hardest part is knowing the right questions to ask and what research you will need to do. Looking for the location that best suits your needs, budget and style is all part of the home buying process. Why is that so difficult? A perfect fit can mean different things to different buyers. Orange, Dutchess, Putnam, Rockland, Ulster and Westchester County covers quite a bit of territory, and a few thousand homes. Up and down the Hudson River there are many villages and towns, hamlets and cities with varied communities. If you search online then you can’t get a real feel for these locations. Spend some time looking around the area and see what looks like home. Narrow down what you don’t like and your options and decisions will be easier.

When I help clients search for a new home, the first question is location. In order to direct that search I filter things such as transportation, where you work and any special wants or needs for school districts. Once I have an idea of the location, then we can move forward with price. style and details.

As a consumer setting your priorities is a balancing act. The closer to NYC the more expensive a home will be. The length of a commute can be a huge concern, as prices of homes may increase based on distance to NYC. The size of the home and land may decrease in some neighborhoods as your ease of commuting changes. The size of the property will most likely change from a home with 5 acres and a backyard barn, to a property that has .25 acres.

A closer commute might be preferred but you may not find the privacy and acreage you expected moving north. Choices at every turn. As your local real estate agent, my job is to help guide you along to find a home that can meet your needs and fit your budget. Together we can weigh the options available and find you a place to call home.

Steps on Buying Your Next Home

August 28, 2017 by Janis Borgueta Leave a Comment

~ Home Buying in the Hudson Valley ~

Buying a Home in the Hudson Valley

The Basic Steps when putting in an offer on a home are simple if you do this every day. Most of my clients have never purchased a home before and therefore enjoy working together to make buying a home a pleasant experience.

Knowledge is power when working through the home buying process and having a team in place to work with allows for a great outcome. I love to hand over the keys to happy buyers that can’t wait to move in.

A few details on this blog will give you a better idea of the actual process. Keep in mind that this can be different in other regions. Even within the same state, the “norm” varies. If you previously purchased a property in Syracuse and now you are buying a home in Warwick, the process can be a bit different. The end result should be the same and you will own a new home.

These next steps are very important and can make or break a deal. An understanding of how this works can be helpful. The importance of having a prequal letter ready becomes important.

After touring a few homes, a new love affair is imminent. The most adorable ranch style home, in the perfect neighborhood and with a swing set in the backyard. This home has everything you have been looking for at an exceptional price. The local inventory of homes is currently low. This new well cared for home is available for the right buyer. If all goes well, that will be you!

The time has come to submit an offer to purchase this home. Putting your best foot forward is important. It is a good idea to use an agent with experience. Your agent should write all the details of your purchase offer. A properly written offer makes a statement when multiple offers are in play. Lucky you, when the offer is accepted and the next steps begin. A most exciting time in your life.

An accepted offer means that the buyers and sellers have come to an agreement of how much the buyer will pay, and with specific terms. The offer provides a timeline for signing contracts, a closing date, and any “non real estate” items included. The items can be things such as a washer, dryer, pool equipment etc. Written into the offer to purchase, will be a mortgage contingency, giving you time to get financing. It is important at this time to write into the offer that there will be a home inspection prior to contracts.

The next step will be to contact a licensed inspector in the area. Your inspector provides this service directly for you. A report is provided with details about the home that he feels are important for you to know. Your home inspector will provide you with info about how to prepare for the future. Knowing how to care for your home is very important.

During this time the home has an “accepted offer” status. Pending a fully executed contract the house can still be shown to other potential buyers.

Next on the agenda after the home inspection is signing contracts. The sellers attorney writes the contracts and sends them to your attorney. Included in the contracts will be the terms and conditions of the sale. Your attorney can prepare a rider to the contracts if needed after the home inspection.

Once your attorney receives the contracts you will be notified. This appointment is for you to review the contracts and discuss all the terms. This is a time to make sure you understand the details and ask questions before signing. At this stage of the process your downpayment will be required. The check will stay in escrow with the sellers attorney until closing.

The sellers attorney will receive the signed contracts and any adjustments necessary. The sellers will meet with their attorney to sign the contracts. Your attorney will receive a copy of the signed contracts, as well as the bank.

The Multiple Listing Service notes the property as “under contract”.

Your job now is to diligently work on the mortgage process. Provide the bank with any documents in a timely manner for your loan approval. Your contracts have a specific amount of time written into them to allow for this. It is important that you are making sure that everything is on track with them. Choosing a local bank can be helpful providing services that only a local lender can do.

The bank orders for an appraisal on the property. Your agent would be present for this, but it is not an appointment that has value for you to attend. The appraiser views the home and works on sending back their report to the bank. Once the bank has the established appraised value, everyone let’s out a sigh of relief. You are another step closer to owning a new home.

Your attorney orders title on the property and a title insurance company verifies any discrepancies of who is on the deed and that they are the legal owners and able to sell the home. Also on the agent is the purchase of an insurance policy. It is a requirement of obtaining a mortgage to take out a homeowners insurance policy prior to purchase. The purchase of this insurance policy for the home will be verified by the bank.

The process of purchasing a home is can vary in parts of New York State. Orange County NY typically uses attorneys for contracts and closings. Knowing how this work can be helpful and ease the fears of buying a home.

This blog post is a brief summary of the local details when buying a home in Orange County New York.

The BEST July 4th Fireworks in the Hudson Valley

June 27, 2017 by Janis Borgueta Leave a Comment

July 4th 2018 Independence Day Celebration

West Point Military Academy, New York

Saturday July 7th 2018 at 7:30pm Rain date is July 8th 2018

This is my very favorite place to watch the July 4th Fireworks Display. As long as it is not raining or miserable outside, my plans this year are to visit WEST POINT for THE Best Fireworks ever!

THE BEST JULY 4TH FIREWORKS IN THE HUDSON VALLEY

July 4th Fireworks Trophy Point at West Point Military Academy

BBQ’s, pool parties or a day at the beach are among some of the more popular ways to celebrate the 4th of July. A nostalgic day that reminds me of my childhood, and a day to make new memories that lasts a lifetime. When the sun drops down over the mountainside and the skies turn from sunset yellow and orange to pale pink and blue it’s time to get ready for an old time summer tradition and watch July 4th Fireworks. Deciding where to go and what is available isn’t always that easy to decide.

Growing up I remember spending time on the beaches of Connecticut watching fireworks scooping up some wonderful family memories. Since I have been living in the Hudson Valley finding the perfect location for watching the fireworks over the years has kept me busy. I do remember how excited my daughters would get every year. I have seen them from many vantage points. Some include a display over the Hudson River while others have been at local parks. They are typically small town events that are most enjoyable each and every year.

A few years ago I found something a bit more compelling. I found West Point. An absolutely spectacular display of fireworks that truly embraces the spirit of the celebration. Beginning before sundown is a parade of our newest cadets of the class of 2021 at West Point. The community welcomes these men and women that protect our country as they enter Trophy Point. 50 cadets from the class of 2021 participate in the “Salute to the States” representing his or her home state, announcing each and every state of the union.

The concert provided by the talented West Point Band is always well received by the crowd with a varied mix of old and new music. As the music continues the skies darken from pale blue and pink to a deeper shade of navy blue and midnight. And then, when you least expect it, the lights on the stage go off and BAM… the fireworks begin. Up up and over the river the fireworks explode almost on top of us. The vantage point is perfect and along with the continuous music it is simply the best place to watch the fireworks. I will say, that until I attended the event I had my doubts that it was anything above average. I was wrong. The only way to find out is to come visit with me this year and see for yourself. The concert and fireworks are free. It doesn’t get much better!

Bring your picnic, a blanket, folding chairs and a bottle of wine and join me on Trophy Point! The event begins around 8 pm, but going much earlier is recommended. I usually get there between 4 and 5 pm and enjoy the views, the people and hike the campus of West Point. There are always some wonderful photo opportunities to keep you busy. It is a relaxing day to sit in the shade and enjoy some Hudson River views and chat with others that have been attending for years.

You will be in for a treat with music and a display of fireworks that can only be seen at this vantage point of the Hudson River. In my book a truly missed opportunity for more years than I care to count. This will be my 5th season going as long as the rain doesn’t ruin our day. The rain date is July 5th, same time same place and they announce the morning of the event on their facebook page if they decide to reschedule. I hope you will look for me and say hello!

Of course not everyone can spend the day at West Point, and that doesn’t’ mean there aren’t some awesome locations to see the fireworks closer to home. All the fireworks in town seem to be scheduled for July the weekend of 4th 2018 at allowing for the opportunity to see more than one venue on more than one day. day. Many choices for sure, but knowing where they are is always a challenge to find out.

My schedule below is from the local towns. Find a place to go, make the commitment to get there early and stay calm after with any traffic or crowds involved. Fun for all where ever you pick. My second favorite is Beacon at Long Dock. Less crowded than most spots and great views over the Hudson. What ever you choose, please be safe and enjoy!
