A Note From Our Sellers “This is the second time we have used the Beltran’s for our home sale and purchase of our next home. There is no one else we would trust to do this personal and life-changing transition! The Beltran team provides unparalleled support from start to finish. Their experience, maturity and attention to detail sets them above other real estate agents and will make you feel confident every step of your journey. We recommend them a hundred times over!”

A Bit About The Featured Home “We have loved our home on Denmark! We will miss being one block from the elementary school, because walking our daughter to school every day has been a dream. We felt it was the perfect size home for our family since we had room for an office, a spare bedroom, a kids room and our spacious master. We will miss all the closets and storage space and our over-sized garage which is hard to find in Villebois. Denmark is also a very quiet street with very little traffic and it has extra large sidewalks. It’s truly an ideal location in Villebois!”

Stats Man Strikes!

This is a very special Stats Man article this month.

Every year Keller Williams has Red Day, which is a day where agents step out of their business and into the community for a day of volunteer work. Our office choose to help out at the Oregon Food Bank.

Two weeks before Red Day, our agents at Beltran Properties Group went around to a couple of areas in Wilsonville and left grocery bags with a flyer about the upcoming food drive and a promise to come back and pick them up.

Beltran Properties Group ended up with 40 bags filled with groceries and a box from Costco with two bags worth!

Food Drive Stats:

T

his city has heart! And we at Beltran Properties Group thoroughly enjoy being a part of it.

In May, our team dropped off hundreds of empty paper bags (in various neighborhoods around town) to be filled with food donations for the Oregon Food Bank.

Wow, did Wilsonville respond! Thank you to everyone who participated by filling a bag. Our team was able to bring over 40 bags of food supplies to the Oregon Food Bank, where our teammates later volunteered their time.

Next? How about a golf scramble fundraiser hosted by the Wilsonville Chamber? We hope to see you there!

Determining a Home’s Value: Fact & Fiction A

ppraisals may seem like a scary monster under the bed. First you decided the price of your amazing home with your BPG listing agent, then you find a buyer who agrees … and then you wait for the appraiser to come in and make their judgement on the value of your home. Nail biting! Right? Well, it doesn’t have to be, if your agent knows what to do and how to navigate this critical part of the home selling process.

Not-So-Simple Math

We at BPG have heard many appraisers take on determining value, and it varies a bit. The one thing we have always told clients is that if it was just math, there would be no need for appraisers or anyone else to determine final value. But it’s not just math, it is a combination of art and science that helps determine a home’s value.

How Appraisals Work … and Don’t work

What the typical appraiser does is look at similar homes within about a mile radius of the properties that have sold in the last 6 months.

It is easy to look at price per square foot as long as the home’s finishes and quality are similar. Sometimes that is comforting, in that, it’s easy to find very similar comparables. However, this cookie-cutter approach may make it more difficult to fully take advantage of a rising market.

This is a very simple and easy approach when you are in a homogenous neighborhood with brisk sales. If you are in a hodge-podge neighborhood where several builders built random homes of varying size and style, that’s when things change. That’s when the math gets tougher.

When you have a unique neighborhood, pricing can be moved more by which comparables are pulled. When we sell a home, we meet the appraiser at the home. We provide the appraiser with our comparables so that he or she can see why we priced the home as we did.

Curious About Unique Properties?

One appraiser said he would have to look back years in order to find the right comparable homes (or “comps”) for unique properties. He talked about appraising a unique riverfront home. While there were no good comps for that property in the current market, what he did was find similar homes away from the river and determine that home’s value. Then he looked at other riverfront homes to see what bonus in price that riverfront location provided. He then put the two values together to determine the riverfront home’s value.

See? Nothing to be afraid of here!

The Final Sale!

We often say you have to sell a home to three people. The buyer, the buyer’s agent, and the appraiser. We do everything we can when we list your home to put you in the best position to successfully sell to all three. Call today if you’re looking for a current market value of your home: 503-502-3330, option 3.

Float On With These Boat Safety Tips

D

oes a wave of anticipation wash over you before each day on the water? With common sense boat safety training, there can be less worry and more excitement.

Are You the Captain?

The captain of the boat is the leader on the water.

Knowing how to avoid incidents and having a plan if something does happen will give all your passengers peace of mind.

Completing a boater’s safety course before

embarking will help you understand state laws and brush up on first aid. State links can be found at boat-ed.com.

Carrying lifejackets for all passengers and having them

actually wear them, especially if skiing, tubing or swimming, as well as having a spotter when pulling skiers or tubers, keeps the Kyle Bunch good times going.

Advanced Safe Boating

Carbon monoxide detectors alert you to what you

can’t see, smell or taste. Carbon monoxide can affect you in seconds, so turning on your bilge blower every time you start your motor is recommended. Making sure that carbon monoxide isn’t building up in your cabin, that all enclosed areas are ventilated, that swimmers avoid exhaust fumes and that you’re not downwind and breathing CO from other boats can be lifesaving.

Using a topographic map

can keep you from grounding yourself or causing damage to your hull.

Navigational boat lights

Keep your distance. Staying 100-150 feet from shores, docks, buoys, other boats, swimmers and mooring or swimming fields is required.

are vital for legal operation whenever visibility is hindered, and helps you know the position, direction and state of boats you may be approaching. Displaying red/portside, green/starboard lights and white stern and mast lights tells other boats you’re present. White lights are required when visibility is low, even when drifting or at anchor.

The rules are designed to keep everyone safe, not

Having an emergency kit with flashlights, blankets, to hamper enjoyment. Asking an American Family jackets, towels, maps, flares, fire extinguishers, first aid supplies, sunscreen and bottled water is smart. Not drinking while driving, since outdoor variables change a body’s reaction to alcohol, will also help.

Check weather reports before leaving, watch radar

apps on smartphones, monitor warnings on radios and be willing to change plans when shifting winds, changing skies and falling barometers signal weather swings.
