But if you’re looking to start a new Thanksgiving tradition this year, we’ve compiled a list of special things to do on Turkey Day that the whole family will love.

If the whole crew won’t be together for Christmas, why not get a little gift giving — and stealing — in early? This version of Dirty Santa has the same basic rules: Everyone puts a $20 gift that’s been wrapped but has no tag into a pile. Pull numbers from a hat to determine what order everyone will choose a present. If anybody who has chosen before you gets a gift that you want — steal it! The present that always gets stolen when my family plays Dirty Santa? A batch of scratch lottery tickets.

🏠 EXPERT TIPS FOR BUYING A LUXURY HOME 🏠

#LuxuryRealEstate #BuyWithTheLaugesenTeam
🏠 EXPERT TIPS FOR BUYING A LUXURY HOME 🏠

1. Learn the search process.
Many luxury homes go unlisted to protect a seller’s privacy. These properties are often found through the Realtor’s personal connections as opposed to the MLS.

2. Go beyond the photos.
Make sure you don’t dismiss properties based on their front elevation photos. Many large homes aren’t photogenic that way and you have to see them in person to appreciate.

3. Work with a local expert.
It’s critical to have a great luxury buyer agent who is familiar with the area you want to buy in. There’s a bit more control on access to high-end properties in terms of fewer open houses and more appointments have to be made to see them.

4. Bank on your relationships.
We strongly recommend you go to the bank you have a relationship with. They have your portfolio already. Also, know the difference between the pre-approval letter and the prequalification letter.

5. Don’t forget about title insurance.
You need to get title insurance so you’ll be insured against any problems that were forgotten about. You want to make sure you have a chance to have a look at the exceptions page of the title insurance process before closing time.

6. Hire smart, reliable advisers.
A good Luxury Realtor will not make the client’s decisions but will make suggestions. Pay attention to your financial planner and Realtor that you trust. They should agree on what you should be doing and if they don’t, arrange a meeting.

7. Know what you want before you start looking
While you will be working with a good team in making the move to your new luxury home, this does not negate the fact that the choice of home is completely yours. The house must be a good fit for you and your family.

💰 How Pricing Your LUXURY Home Right Makes a Big Difference 💰

💰 How Pricing Your LUXURY Home Right Makes a Big Difference 💰

Even though there’s a big buyer demand for homes in today’s low inventory market, it doesn’t mean you should price your home as high as the sky when you’re ready to sell. Here’s why making sure you price it right is key to driving the best price for the sale.

If you’ve ever watched the show “The Price Is Right,” you know the only way to win the game is to be the one to correctly guess the price of the item up for bid without going over. That means your guess must be just slightly under the retail price.

When it comes to pricing your home, setting it at or slightly below market value will increase the visibility of your listing and drive more buyers your way. This strategy actually increases the number of buyers who will see your home in their search process. Why? When potential buyers look at your listing and see a great price for a fantastic home, they’re probably going to want to take a closer look. This means more buyers are going to be excited about your house and more apt to make an offer.

When this happens, you’re more likely to set up a scenario with multiple offers, potential bidding wars, and the ability to drive a higher final sale price. At the end of the day, even when inventory is tight, pricing it right – or pricing it to sell immediately – makes a big difference.

Here’s the other thing: homeowners who make the mistake of overpricing their homes will eventually have to lower the prices anyway after they sit on the market for an extended period of time. This leaves buyers wondering if the price drops were caused by something wrong with these homes when in reality, nothing was wrong, the initial prices were just too high.

Bottom Line:

If you’re thinking about selling your home this year, make sure you have THE LAUGESEN TEAM on your side to help you properly price your home and maximize demand from the start.

🧸 HOW TO KEEP YOUR NURSERY SAFE 🧸

🧸 HOW TO KEEP YOUR NURSERY SAFE 🧸
Make It JPMA & GREENGUARD Gold Certified

Creating a safe, loving environment for children to grow and play is the goal of any nursery. However, it can go unregistered that furniture can release harmful pollutants and emissions into the air.

 

🌟What Makes a Product GREENGUARD Gold Certified?

For a product to be GREENGUARD gold certified, it must meet a widely accepted standard for safe furniture and other household products that release a low level of emissions.

GREENGUARD gold-certified products can emit no more than 360 VOCs and must comply with the State of California’s Department of Public Health

 

🌟What Makes a Product JPMA Certified?

JPMA, or the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association, has advocated for safe baby products for over 40 years. Products must be sample tested at independent laboratories and meet rigorous safety standards in order to be JPMA certified.

The JPMA certification differs from the GREENGUARD gold certification in that it focuses on meeting a bar of functionality and performance rather than a level of emissions.

🌳🌵 PRIVACY PLANTS FOR SCREENING YOUR YARD IN STYLE 🌵🌳

🌳🌵Privacy Plants for Screening Your Yard in Style🌵🌳

BAMBOO
We begin with bamboo, which adds height and modern style to the outdoor spaces it adorns. Below we see how a row of bamboo creates a poolside wall of greenery.

FARGESIA BAMBOO
Not all bamboo is invasive! While some can quickly get out of control, try Fargesia bamboos, which have clumping roots and grow more slowly than their unruly counterparts. There are many perks to Fargesia, including the fact that it’s fast-growing, evergreen and hardy, even in the cold.

BOXWOOD
Boxwood makes a lovely option for the ground, and it adds English garden-style charm when trimmed into spheres or hedges. If height isn’t a huge factor with your privacy screen, you don’t need to wait for the boxwood to grow tall before achieving the results you desire.

ITALIAN BUCKTHORN
We continue on our evergreen shrub kick, this time getting back to the real variety! Consider Italian Buckthorn for your privacy planting needs. This shrub will grow rather quickly, and its upright formations make it ideal for screen purposes.

ARBORVITAE
There’s something unique about the clustered, textured feel of Arborvitae’s greenery. This tree is often layered with other selections, such as Boxwood. Below we see a lush garden filled with manicured trees and shrubs. Note the Arborvitae growing tall behind the Boxwood.

🏠 🌺 THE NEW SPRING REAL ESTATE MARKET IS HERE, ARE YOU READY? 🌺 🏠

🏠 🌺 THE NEW SPRING REAL ESTATE MARKET IS HERE, ARE YOU READY? 🌺 🏠

Which month do you think most people who are considering buying a home actually start their search? If you’re like most of us, you probably think the surge happens in the spring, likely in April. Not anymore. According to new research, January 2019 was only 1% behind February for the most monthly views per listing.

SO, WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
The busiest season in real estate has just begun.

The same research indicates,

“Historically, April launched the kickoff of the home shopping season as buyers would come out of their winter hibernation looking for their new home. However, the spring shopping season now starts in January for many of the nation’s largest markets.”

With the reality of fewer homes on the market in the winter, and that supply naturally increases as we head to the spring market, waiting for more competition to list in your neighborhood this year might put you behind the curve. Perhaps now is the time to jump into the market.

REMINDER: When should you sell something? When there is less of that item for sale and the greatest number of buyers are in the market. That’s exactly what is happening in real estate right now.

BOTTOM LINE
The new spring market for real estate is underway. If you’re considering buying or selling, reach out to The Laugesen Team your local real estate professionals, so you have the advantage in this competitive market.

2020 NEW YEAR TIP

 

Don’t abbreviate 2020 when you sign documents, police warn.

When writing the date in 2020, write the year in its entirety. It could possibly protect you and prevent legal issues on paperwork.

Example: If you just write 1/1/20, one could easily change it to 1/1/2017 (for instance) and now your signature is on an incorrect document.
