New Listings This Week in Wyckoff, NJ

The post Bergen County Sales Week of Dec 29, 2013 appeared first on Michael Shetler's Buying In Bergen.

As we enter 2014, Glen Rock has a real estate problem. There are very few homes on the market. So few in fact that Glen Rock has the lowest available inventory in the state.

That’s good for sellers, not so good for buyers. Many homes that closed recently sold over the asking price with multiple offers. If you’re a buyer, you probably already know that if a good house comes on the market, your offer needs to be extremely competitive.

As of Wednesday, January 8, there are only 17 single family homes for sale. 167 homes sold in 2013.  There were 26 on the market at this time last year.

For more information about buying or selling in Glen Rock, NJ, call Michael Shetler, 201-421-0506.

The post Scarcity of homes for sale in Glen Rock appeared first on Michael Shetler's Buying In Bergen.

It took us every bit of a year to find “the house” in Bergen County. Being from Somerset, Bergen might as well have been the Moon. Went through our share of Realtors as well but fell upon Mike at an open house in Ho-Ho-Kus, one of our target areas. He was very soft spoken but don’t let his quiet demeanor lull you into believing he is not going to work for you — Au contraire — he pulled data together on demand – and trust me – we are very demanding. I am sure his family thought we were nuts, calling him early in the AM and late at night with ideas and online listings. But at the end of the day (ore really year) and just in time to get our kids into the fabulous schools in bergen, he made it happen and we have our home. So what, you ask, is the above and beyond issue — It had to do with a swing set that we really did not need but did not negotiate the removal of — so Mike found another person – likely another satisfied client — to come and take it. Mike Shetler DELIVERS !!

I am very pleased that we used Michael and his team’s services to sell house. He provided the correct suggestions in order for us to get our house ready to sell. The staging and his media presentation skills were exceptional and it created a buzz and a frenzy at our open house. Many of the buyers agents had positive comments about the way our house was listed on the internet. Our house sold in 3 days with 7 solid offers to choose from… all above asking price. I was mostly out of the country during the closing process and it was great to have Michael always available while he took care of the details. Selling a house can be stressful but Michaels calm and professional attitude made it easier.
No regrets here.

Michael is the consummate professional and the only realtor I would recommend to any potential buyers in Bergen County. He tirelessly worked on our behalf to find us the perfect home as oppose to “getting us into a house.” He provided key insight into issues my wife and I never considered allowing us to make educated decisions in our best interest. Moreover, he has a clam, affable yet professional disposition which is seldom seen, but deeply valued.

“It was good to work with Mike Shetler; we started our search for homes in the Ridgewood area towards the end of 2008. Mike, with his detailed knowledge and expertise helped us find and close on our home in Ridgewood. All thru the process he assisted us with not only information on and showing of available homes, but also on buyer-seller contract/closing trends, stats and research analyses that enabled us to make our final decision in the summer of 2009. I would highly recommend Mike Shetler to family and friends.”
