April – June 2022 Real Estate Market Update for Roseville

Kaye Swain REALTOR shares April-June 2022 real estate market report for Roseville CA

April - June 2022 Real Estate Market Update for Roseville 55+ Homes The Federal Reserve raised rates in March, May, and June of 2022. June 15, 2022 was the largest since 1994. I wondered if that was making a difference in the real estate market.

Real Estate Sales Are Blooming in Winter In Roseville CA

Balmy weather and roses in January are two reasons I love Roseville CA-Kaye Swain REALTOR

It's the middle of winter and most of the country is turning into a ginormous ice cube. No snow for half my grandkids, which has them quite bummed, but they are freezing away nonetheless.  Not so here in Roseville, California - and throughout most of our lovely state. Oh, it is a bit chilly. But as you can see in the rose pix, today's temperature as I write this at 2:47 p.m. on January 11, is a balmy 60 degrees. And that rose picture itself? I shot that at a home I was showing to a real estate client - two days ago. I do love Roseville and its roses! All of this to say, we are not as … Continue reading...

Painting your house is a great way to prepare to sell your home-via Kaye Swain REALTOR Roseville CA

Getting Your House Ready To Sell - The Sequel In my last post, I shared ideas about getting your house ready to sell by DEcluttering, DEdecorating, and DEpersonalizing. Today, it's all about DEep Cleaning and REpainting - maybe even REcarpeting? Cleaning is Key This is the time to go through each room, cleaning all surfaces. It might be good to remove shelf paper - either leaving it off or, if you are more coordinated than I, putting fresh new shelf paper down in a quiet color like beige or off-white. (In my case, the shelves generally look much better if I do NOT add shelf paper. I use it … Continue reading...

Selling Your Home? Keep Those Utilities On Along with Your Heater Or Air Conditioner!

Warm lap blankets are a big help in the car when transporting elderly seniors AND grandkids.jpg

After writing my last post about buying or selling your home during the winter, I've spotted a few other winter advocates in blogs and on Twitter. Two writers, Jean Richer and  Lenn Harley, each made an especially important point - which is quite applicable for all seasons. They reminded all sellers to make sure to set the heater for a comfy and WARM temperature, at least for showings. After all, if your house is not warm enough prospective buyers will hurry OUT of your house, back to the car where there may be a warm blanket, and on to another home for sale that might be … Continue reading...
