Lending a helping hand

The Erie Otter's offer a Big Assist Wednesday's throughout their hockey season, promoting local non-profit organizations around Erie. 

This year, Marsha Marsh Real Estate Services volunteered their time to help collect donations for the ExpERIEnce Children's Museum and the Erie City Mission. Our Erie real estate agents care about the Erie community and are always looking for ways to not only lend a hand, but to promote the great organizations that make living in Erie a great home for your families.

Tuesday, January 22, 2013 the agents of Marsha Marsh Real Estate Agents met to go over New Construction for 2013. Discussed in the 2 hour meeting was information on builders in our area and also types of new construction.

With inventory at all time lows agents need to understand the new construction process and the advantages to buyers.

Builders like Mike Peck might allow the buyers to build a “pre-built spec” that finances like a resale home and not have to get a construction loan which is more expensive for buyers due to draw schedules and inspections with the bank.

Mike Peck has a new subdivision in Northwest Millcreek, Asbury Point with over a dozen lots available for spring. Mike Peck also has lots to build in Fairview close to Kahkwa Club off Swanville Road.

Building allows buyers to build what they want and get a great value, plus no deferred maintenance on the home. New Construction due to new building codes, makes the home ENERGY EFFICIENT and this is very important moving forward with cost of energy today.

Agents need to get their buyers familiar with new construction because 2013 will be a great year for new construction !!!!
