Where In The World Is Sarah Bandy?


CIMG1597I wanted to take a moment and share some photos from my trip.

Today I’m in St. Thomas. It is extremely beautiful here.

The harbor is one of the most visited in the Caribbean.

The views are stunning no matter what direction I point my camera in.

I spotted the helicopter sitting a top of one of the yachts in the harbor but no need to start her up, I’m only semi–homesick. I’ll be back soon enough.

“Come one, come all. Come with the kids, or come as you are.” 

That calling came from the    Chase bank family of Colts Neck.

This newly built branch office conveniently located on route 34  pass Delicious Orchards celebrated their Grande Opening in  “Colts Neck Style.” today.

Many residents were on hand to show their support.

JP Morgan Chase,  a leading financial institution, continues to strengthen its leadership position by expanding into Monmouth County, New Jersey. Events like today exemplified the bank’s commitment to provide a personal touch to their customers needs.  Chase employees were on hand to directly field any questions from simple checking issues to financial investments queries.

Large crowds gathered throughout the day to enjoy the elegant free buffet and children were entertained by the very talented balloon artist and the inflatable jungle gym.

Even the Chase Pup was on hand to greet visitors.

Fellow Keller Williams agent Marilyn D’ Angelo was the lucky recipient of a hug and kiss from the big dog himself.

Speaking of pups…..Rescue Ridge an all volunteer, non-profit, animal rescue group was on hand to bring to light the need to adopt homeless pets.

Blue skies, great friends, and amazing neighbors…..This is what Colts Neck is all about.

Come chase your dreams CIMG1505to Colts Neck!

The New Jersey Real Estate Misconception


DinnerThe other night I was out to dinner with some relatives that are visiting from another country. They flew in for our annual “Family Reunion Cruise.” With about 30 people, you can just imagine, it’s the yearly vacation you need a vacation from.

As I was sitting at the dinner table I noticed a man staring in my direction. I glanced over and thought maybe we knew each other. His continuing glances then led my EGO to believe….Well, you know, but to clarify matters, NO, he was not staring for that reason.

Staring

I am often heard saying that my family is very cultural. This time was no exception. What I realized after carefully examining the pity in his eyes is that he was under the misconception that I was getting yelled at. Why would he think that you may ask?

Culturally there are traits that are common to a particular group. My family’s are that they are very loud individuals. All this poor man could think was that I was getting yelled at by a bunch of older people speaking in a foreign language.

I came to the conclusion that misconceptions can translate to many areas including the real estate industry.

With home buyers making extremely low offers based upon the medias overall assessment of the current real estate market, buyers are not realizing that real estate is a local industry. They are under the misconception that they can offer 50 to 100 thousand off the asking price and get an accepted offer.

Monmouth County’s real estate has seen an increase in sales and is continuing to pick up. Homes that are priced correctly are actually seeing multiple offers come in.

Do not be drawn into the hysteria that the media portrays. Speak with a real estate professional that can help guide you locally, this way there will be no misconceptions.
