Posted on May 15, 2012 by June Mattson

Real Estate Expert, June Mattson of Jupiter, Florida, talks about the “Silent Invaders,” TERMITES, found in homes in Northern Palm Beach County, Jupiter and Abacoa, Florida.

Selling real estate in Jupiter, Florida has its challenges. Knowing your enemy, termites, which will affect every homeowner in Florida at some time, can help you avoid costly repairs in the future.

These wood-chomping insects can cause tens of thousands of dollars in property damage and render homes unsellable. Below are a few pointers to prevent and detect termite infestation in your home.

1. Trim back shrubs and landscaping 6 inches from the siding to allow air movement.

2. There are more than 2000 species of termites. The 3 types found in Northern Palm Beach County and the Jupiter area are; drywood, damp wood and subterranean. Subterranean cause the majority of all termite damage in North America.

3. Spring is the time of year when insects swarm so don’t mistake them for flying ants. Many swarmers shed their wings after landing so look for piles of discarded wings on windowsills, the ground and in spider webs.

4. Once a year have your home inspected by a professional Termite Company to determine if any problems are starting to occur.

Selling Your Home in Abacoa, Jupiter and Northern Palm Beach County, Florida

Posted on May 10, 2012 by June Mattson

June Mattson of Frankel Realty Group in Jupiter, Florida understands the importance of staging your home for listing photos when preparing to sell. As one of the top realtors in Jupiter, June helps her clients stage their homes to attract possible buyers. Whether it’s painting, removing clutter, updating landscape or just replacing light bulbs, June has the answers you need to get your home sold fast and for the highest price.

Most of today’s selling occurs online and Seller’s have approximately 5 seconds to get a Buyer’s attention before they go on to the next home. That being said, photography is critical. Buyers want to be energized when they look at a home.

Towels, soap stands, fancy soaps – a modern spa like feel. Something that looks current – cozy throw pillows and blankets all help to add color. Often what is in a picture will inspire a potential Buyer to schedule a walk thru of your home. Consider painting your walls neutral colors, especially if you have grown accustomed to purple or pink walls. Replace a worn bedspread and fix leaky faucets. Plant yellow flowers or group flower pots together. Yellow evokes a buying emotion. Marigolds are inexpensive. Paint faded window trim. If the chandelier in the dining room once belonged to your great grandmother take it down. Once you tell a buyer she can’t have an item, she will covet it and it could blow the deal. First impressions count so keep your yard inviting, trim the bushes and trees and make sure your front door is painted and hardware is in good condition.

For more information on staging your home for sale in Jupiter, Florida call June Mattson at 561-222-0640 or email her at jmattson@frankel-realty.com. To search available homes for sale in Jupiter, Abacoa go to www.frankel-realty.com.

Home Sales In Palm Beach County Rise As Inventory Falls

Posted on May 10, 2012 by Lindsay Greene

With many experts expressing their thoughts that the market has finally bottomed out, homeowners are starting to breathe a sigh of relief. Nationally, the index that tracks the number of signed contracts rose 4.1% last month to 101.4, where an index of 100 is considered healthy. This is its highest level in almost two years. “This increase in closed contracts is a great indicator of a modest upturn reestablishing itself nationally in the housing market,” says expert South Florida real estate agent Lindsay Greene of Frankel Realty Group.

As for us South Floridians, Palm Beach County analysts are showing a 6% increase in the median sales price for single-family homes and a 24% increase in the number of homes sold. This up-rise in home prices and closed contracts show consistency with national predictions for the market’s comeback.

This increase in sales that we are seeing could possibly lead to a dip in closed sales in the months to come, but this dip will most likely be attributed to a decline in inventory rather than financial shortcomings. As far as distressed sales are concerned, the reserve of foreclosure cases that the courts have yet to release also have a possibility of bringing average home prices down, but this potential decrease should be relatively short lived and painless. Investors are finding more creative ways to dispose of foreclosed homes, and, at the end of the day, banks don’t want to lose money and will do what they must to ensure that value and demand are not compromised.

The bottom line is that we have most likely experienced the bottom line. Go buy a home. Go buy a second home. Now is the time before the inevitable swelling of home prices, an eventual rise in interest rates, and affordable options start to wane.

Pending Home Sales Rise In South Florida – Great News For Sellers

Posted on February 28, 2012 by Brad Ball

Pending home sales are on an upward trend – an admittedly uneven but meaningful trend since reaching a cyclical low last April, according to the National Association of Realtors®. Today’s South Florida Pending Home Sales Index (PHSI) rose 2 percent compared to December 2011.

The PHSI, a forward-looking indicator based on contract signings, rose to 97.0 in January from a downwardly revised 95.1 in December, and it’s 8.0 percent higher than January 2011 when it was 89.8. The data reflects contracts but not closings.

The January index is the highest since April 2010 when it reached 111.3 as buyers were rushing to take advantage of the homebuyer tax credit.

“Given more favorable housing market conditions, the trend in contract activity implies we are on track for a more meaningful sales gain this year,” says Brad Ball, Broker Associate with Frankel Realty Group in Jupiter, Florida. “With a sustained downtrend in unsold inventory, this would bring about a broad price stabilization or even modest price growth in South Florida, of course with local variations.”

For more information on the South Florida housing market, contact Brad Ball of Frankel Realty Group. He is an expert in luxury waterfront and golf homes in Jupiter, Palm Beach Gardens and Tequesta. Brad’s number is 561-373-8700. To gain access to available homes in South Florida, go to www.frankel-realty.com and search our Free South Florida MLS.

First Presbyterian Pre-School | Tequesta Florida’s Best Pre-School

Posted on February 6, 2012 by Brad Ball

Let’s face facts… Your a concerned parent of a 2 to 4 year old child. You have probably been nurturing your child everyday since he/she was born and you are having real issues with letting go. I know, I’ve been there. After reveiwing many local preschools in the Jupiter/Tequesta area, I made my decision quickly after visiting First Presbyterian Pre-School in Tequesta. This is my son’s third and final year and I know in my heart that enrolling him there was one of the best decisions I have ever made. The classrooms are small, the teachers/staff are wonderful and the price is amazingly affordable. I have never in my life seen a child so excited about going to school as my son is every morning. As a matter of fact, he gets upset if he is unable to attend. Save time and effort by visiting First Presbyterian Preschool first. As a local realtor and an expert on all things Jupiter/Tequesta, Florida, I highly recommend it.

Should you or someone you know decide to relocate to the Jupiter/Tequesta area; or if you are thinking of selling your home, call Brad Ball at 561-373-8700. I am ready for your next move!
