What is the PHSI? | Auburn Maine Homes For Sale
What is the PHSI?
Each month I study the Pending Home Sales Index, issued by the National Association of Realtors. The index is based on pending sales of existing homes. A sale is listed as pending when the contract has been signed but the transaction has not closed.The NAR uses a large national sampling to come up with their report. It ties the level of monthly contract activity to the level of sales that will occur in the following two months. An index of 100 is equal to the average level of contract activity during 2001 the first year to be examined as well as the first of five consecutive record years for existing-home sales, and it coincides with a level that is considered historically healthy.The most recent index report for March looked positive: It rose 5.1% to 94.1, up from 89.5% in February. The index is below the 106.2 in March 2010. It’s important to note that March & April 2010 activity was at an elevated level in order to meet contract deadlines for the home buyer tax credit.

Down the River: Lisbon Falls
Perhaps Lisbon Falls’ largest claim to fame is that writer Stephen King attended Lisbon Falls High School. The fictional town of Castle Rock, which he used in several stories, is thought to be based on Lisbon Falls. With a population of 4,541 in July 2007, Lisbon Falls is approximately eight miles from either Brunswick or Lewiston. The average commute time for work is 24.5 minutes. In 2009, estimated median household income was $40,134 ($39,224 in 2000) and estimated median house value in 2009 was $138,904 ($86,600 in 2000). The town is also famous for its Moxie Days, a celebration of the Moxie soft drink, which is sold at Frank Anicetti’s corner store. The store’s official name is The Kennebec Fruit Company, but it is commonly referred to as The Moxie Store and is recognizable by its bright yellow paint. Lisbon Falls and Lisbon share schools, including the Lisbon Community School, Sugg Middle School and Lisbon High School. It is also home to the Lisbon House of Pizza and Beaver Park Recreation Area is very nearby—a lovely location for you and your family to check out!

Problem With Ants This Time Of Year? | New Gloucester Maine Homes For Sale
Problem ants?I recently had an interesting conversation with a representative of Orkin Pest Control. At this time of year in Maine, you may spot a few ants crawling around your home. Here is some useful info on carpenter ants:In nature, carpenter ants live in dead trees, rotting logs and tree stumps. They tend to build nests in deteriorating wood, but colonies can also extend to healthy wood. Carpenter ants make their homes in telephone poles, house porch pillars and roofs, windowsills and wood that comes in contact with soil. They prefer to burrow into damp wood rather than dry wood, and they typically seek wood that has been softened by moisture, decay or other insects….

For Safety’s Sake

For safety’s sake
In the event of a home disaster (such as a fire or theft), your memory may not serve you well in filing an insurance claim. Here’s a project that could be a real time saver in such a case.
Create a home inventory instead! It can be done on by hand in a notebook, by digital photo or by hand-held video. This is the best way to inform your insurance company of what you owned.
Record everything you own, including appliances, jewelry, collectibles and furniture. Include what’s hiding in drawers, cupboards and closets. Go from room to room and record narrative descriptions of items. Point out note whether something is an antique, or if there are special reasons to make it more valuable. A list of serial numbers is also useful. For more assistance, you can do a search online for a “home inventory check list.”
Store your information on a USB drive in a safe deposit box, at a relative’s home, or in an online file back-up service. Consider storing copies of purchase receipts in the same place.
Decline In Home Value — There May Be Help From HARP

Decline in home value — There may be help from HARP
If the value of your home has declined, you may be eligible to refinance through the Home Affordable Refinance Program. HARP is designed to help you refinance into a new affordable, more stable mortgage. The program has been extended to June 2012. You may be eligible if:
• You have a mortgage owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
• You are current on your mortgage payments and have not been more than 30 days late in the last year.
• You owe more than the home is worth, but your mortgage doesn’t exceed 125 % of the current market value of your home
• The refinance will improve the long-term affordability and/or stability of your mortgage.
• And you have the ability to make the new payments.
If you question if this solution would be helpful for you, please call me, or see your mortgage company today.
