How To Test-Drive A Neighborhood Before You Move There
As the saying goes: location, location, location. Along with a budget, the area is usually one of the first items on a buyer's wish list. Of course, people choose where they want to live based on factors like proximity to family and friends, the commute to work or school, and the overall vibes. Like people, neighborhoods have personalities. Foodies might be happier in certain areas of town than others, and the same goes for nature lovers, theatergoers, night owls or people with young children.
How to Celebrate Your House-Iversary This Spring
Key Takeaways Marking the date you bought your home is a new social trend. Honor your homeownership with projects, renovations and neglected repairs.

Common Seller and Buyer Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
Many of us not only care about our residential property investments, but actively consume and absorb real estate data and trends, whether it be from the media or word-of-mouth from our personal networks. We want to navigate the real estate market smartly when presented with various choices. But it can be difficult to discern what information is true or false, timely or obsolete, relevant to our property or only to someone else’s.
Behind the Scenes: The Unglamorous Side of Being a Real Estate Agent
The thrill of the sell is only one half of the coin, the other half is filled with plenty of duties to keep a real estate agent busy in the meantime.Getty Images Years ago, a Los Angeles-based couple hired my team and me to sell their New York City condo. It was once their home, but since they moved to LA for career reasons, they'd been renting it out and collecting income. Our task was to sell the apartment while the current tenant still lived there.
What Is an Open House?
When a residential property is listed for sale, an open house is one of the most common marketing tools the seller's agent might employ. In certain neighborhoods across the U.S., it is not unusual to drive down a grassy street and see snazzy "Open House!" signs pointing prospective buyers to properties for sale, sometimes even with the promise of lunch or dessert.
Scents That Make Sense When Selling Your Home
There is a classic vignette that so many of us have seen in movies and on TV, in which a real estate agent has baked cookies for an open house, letting the sugary aroma waft through the air of the property. There is just something about baked goods, fresh out of the oven, that smells like home. Many of us return to our childhood homes and feel immediately welcomed by the comforting scents coming from the kitchen.
Don't Hire a Home Contractor If You See These Red Flags
When it comes time to renovate a home, whether it's a gut job or a refresh, the team you hire can make or break your project. For most people, remodeling a home is outside their skillset, so understanding how to hire the right team can seem daunting.

Keep Your Home Office Setup Looking Perfect With These Tips

In the early stages of lockdown, we were all getting used to working from home, or WFH, but with the expectation that we would very soon return to the office and life as we knew it. Many of us created workstations in a corner or maybe made do with casual home offices that had been sitting barely used for years prior.
A Penthouse Implies Luxury, But Beware These Downsides
As most people understand it, the penthouse is the top floor of a high-rise or mid-rise building and the word generally connotes exclusivity and luxury. The penthouse may have the best views of any unit in the building, higher ceilings and may have a layout that is unique among all the other apartments. Its position at the top may mean that it has notable private outdoor space or access to private roof space, and depending on the construction, it may have a larger or smaller footprint overall.

These Home Design Choices Can Make Your Home Look Cheap
One of the most important goals of a home seller is to sell the property for as much money as the market will bear.

However, sometimes cheap renovation choices or tacky decorating can turn off potential buyers, causing an otherwise great property to languish on the market and eventually sell for less than it should.
These Indoor Plants Are More Likely to Thrive Inside Your Home
When it’s time to list a home for sale, there’s a common trope of the real estate agent bringing in fresh-cut flowers for the photo shoot or the first open house.

Buying a House? 4 Things to Take Off Your Must-Have List Now
As most adults know, life is about compromise. No job is perfect, no relationship is perfect and no home is perfect.

Condo vs. Townhouse vs. Co-Op: Which Is Right for You?
Before making an offer, decide which type of homeownership works best for you, whether it's being part of a homeowners association, condominium or housing cooperative.(Getty Images) In more urban environments, like New York, Chicago, the District of Columbia or San Francisco, single-family homes with space between buildings are less common.
