New Listing at 801 Highland Trail

Wednesday, August 25th, 2010

I have a great new listing in Highland Forest, almost one acre of really beautiful land and big windows throughout.  It is a wonderful home with easy access 15-501 and a quick commute to UNC, Duke and RTP. 

Call me for more info and I will post pictures asap.  Check my page on Facebook - Chapel Hill Real Estate Search to see the picts and more info now. 

This is a great time to buy, rates are at historic lows.  The lowest since 1956 and this can’t last.  Looking over the numbers you can get under 4%, making a home a great investment.  There is a lot of inventory out there right now and sellers are looking to…SELL!  Let’s get out there.

I can send you current listings and keep an eye out for something that might be a great buy or just a great place for you to downsize, upsize or invest!

It’s time to call Reg Morgan, your Chapel Hill realtor, with over 22 years of experience buying and selling real estate in our area.

UNC Football Debuts at Number 18

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

Good news for a football program that needs some light right about now.  With all the talk about the NCAA inquiry, it’s time for some good news on how the team looks for this year.  And the news is good!  The Heels are ranked at number 18 in the AP poll - their highest in more then a decade.   LSU, the first opponent scheduled to play Carolina on Saturday, September 4th in the Georgia Dome is ranked 21st.  That could be a big win - but alot depends on what we hear from the NCAA in the coming days, weeks and even months.Waiting on this investigation requires alot of patience — sort of like selling a house in this market!It’s hard to have patience when our housing market is sloowww…so I try to work around the market.  Using different and innovative strategies, tweak the house, renovate the kitchen, open houses, internet, inspiration - PERSPIRATION!  Whatever it takes - and it does work.  Houses are still selling and buyers are still out there!  And this year the Heels are good!  Good news from your Chapel Hill realtor - Reg Morgan.Call me to come take a look around some of our great Chapel Hill neighborhoods.

Social Networking Sites for Real Estate Sales

Thursday, August 12th, 2010

Recently I’ve been asked a number of times if I tweet.  Some people just want to know if I am twittering.  Well, yes, I certainly do.  Twitter and Facebook have become necessities for real estate sales these days and if you are not out there on the web, you’re doing your clients a disservice.   I don’t have to tell you that buyers and sellers…and just people with a passing interest in our current Chapel Hill real estate market are getting their information from other sources then the old time Sunday newspaper real estate section.

Prudential has a great app you can download - just click on it and it will tell you what homes are for sale in the area you are standing in right now.

So I tweet - follow me at @RegMorgan and I’ll keep you 140 characters worth of updated on home sale trends in our areas.  I also send out info on new listings, open houses and special deals.

On Facebook you can look for Chapel Hill Real Estate Search, another way to stay up on what is going on in Chapel Hill - things to do, new openings and home and mortgage trends.

Or just pick up the phone and call me on my new Droid — 919.624.3434.
