Building a home with Ball Homes

Friday, February 6, 2009
by Bob Sokoler

Buiilding a home is always a risky business. You have hundreds of decisions to make and more often than not you have to make decisions that you may 2nd guess a day later. As Louisville Real Estate Agents we work with hundreds of clients a year. When we started working with Rebecca and Joe last year we first looked at older homes. But soon our client’s attentions turned to building and buying a Ball Home. Today after a 5-month period, we closed on Joe and Rebecca’s new Ball home in Cooper Farms and we are thrilled for them. In fact watch the faces on this couple; their excitement is really contagious.

Save Money and Time When Looking for a Louisville Home

Tuesday, January 27, 2009
by Bob Sokoler

You can waste a lot of time looking for a home on your own. Driving around calling signs can take time. May internet websites take several days to load hot properties and by then a great home could be under contract. Save time and money working with the right Real Estate Team.

Louisville gets hit with Snow

Monday, January 19, 2009
by Bob Sokoler

One of the biggest questions I’m asked by people moving to the Louisville Kentucky area to buy a home is about Snow. How much, how often, what are the roads like and how long does it take to clear them? Well today 1/19/2009 we received what I would consider a standard snow amount for a Louisville winter. We get one of these dustings about 3 times a winter during most years. In our continuing video blog, I show you the snow and how Louisville road crews spring into action with even the smallest amount of snow. It’s all because of the blizzard of 1994. The City got slammed with 24 inches of snow and everything grinded to a halt for a week. . The mayor, Jerry Abramson vowed never to let Louisville get to that point again. That’s why we have an elite crew ready to hit the roads with even a little dusting.

Buying a Foreclosure - Mold Problems

Friday, January 16, 2009
by Bob Sokoler

We have a number of clients looking for great deals on Louisville Kentucky Foreclosures. Yes, there are deals out there but it takes work to find them. We’ve been out with “Mike” on a regular basis. So far the deals we found have had problems. In this video, we find Mold growing in the basement. That’s one of the biggest problems this time of year. If a home that’s been foreclosed on or has been vacant has not been properly winterized, water lines may have broken and the water can easily cause mold. In fact it’s said that if water stands more than 3 days mold can start to form. Treating a home with mold can be a long and expensive process. Leaving mold untreated can be a health hazard. FEMA has a series of reports on the problem. For more information head to www.weselllouisville.com or www.louisvillehomestoday.com.

What are some of the risks in buying a Foreclosure

Friday, January 9, 2009
by Bob Sokoler

Every day you hear the media talking about how easy it is to get a great deal when buying a home that was in Foreclosure. In Louisville Kentucky, there are an estimated 200 foreclosure sales every month. But what you don’t hear about in the media are the time delays associated with foreclosures. As part of our Live Video Blog series we talked with one of our clients just as they closed on a foreclosure home we found in Jefferson County.
