Michael Travis—Your Waterfront Agent
Michael Travis was an agent with Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in Portsmouth, gets a call from a lady in December, 2008 to sell her waterfront on Northwood Lake–well that part isn’t unusual since he is known as the waterfront agent [...]
Michael Travis—Your Waterfront Agent
“You cannot plow a field by turning it over in your mind.” A great statement that relates to so many people on the fence to do something–like buying a home—so let me help you push the plow.
For one, this is a great time to buy a home–the rates are manageable–with all kinds of lending options including the ability to make chunk payments toward principle and drop your payment right away. .
For two, all indications are that the market in NH isn’t really looking to drop — after all New Hampshire is the wealthiest state in the country per capita with the third highest number of second homes and the lowest poverty rate in the country—hey not bad.
For three, there is some great inventory–and all indications more is coming in the horizon. Just go to my site and see the deals at www.WaterfrontAgent.net.
New Hampshire is considered the healthiest state in the country–just ask my blood pressure and cholesterol–it has dropped just living on my little Northwood paradise with the loons compared to NYC and Boston where I resided prior to here. Didn’t need pills to do the job.
I can’t say this is a time to grab and flip properties in general–but there are still deals for that. Cash is king. This is not a rehearsal for another life for sure–so enjoy it now.
Let me help you plow through all the maze called real estate so that together we ca turn that field called home. Just email me at michael.travis@verani.com or give me a call at 603-303-2599.
Enjoy, Michael
You don't have to look far to see how insane prices have become in the last few years especially on waterfront homes. People blame the pandemic. Maybe the government. Maybe the very low interest rates creating demand. Of course we see a different picture now with very hig rates, new assessmentts coming in way higher and the fear our taxes [...]

About 50 years ago, just after finishing graduate school in Ohio, I made the decision to decline some good job offers and move back to New [...]

Inevitably, there comes a time in life when adult children of seniors need to be closer to their
senior parents, or even other close relatives at that. This need may become even more
apparent when they aren't able to take care of their daily needs on their own. But how do [...]
Living the good life in New Hampshire
To think I spent 16 years living in the heart of Manhattan followed by 5 years in the North End of Boston before coming here. What I did discover was when I moved here on a small lake in Northwood surrounded by the sounds of loons and birds and a night sky that had stars in them which I hadn't seen for [...]
Living in a state consisting of 86% trees I am blessed with fresh air all the time. So every year is the consideration of a live cut tree or the ever more realistic fake ones. Things have come a long way from when I lived in NYC 30 years ago, and was charged $3 for what didn’t even count as a “Charlie Brown” [...]
I see a lot of homes in every style and every shape and size --just like the people behind their stories.
In my NYC advertising days with Jerry Della Femina I created perfect for a home equity loan ad for Chemical Bank in NYC and found the perfect house--one house in the shape of a [...]
Selling an antique historic home in a modern world.
Seems buyers these days are looking for new, turnkey homes that don't need anything done and in perfect condition. They may miss the perfect antique home thinking it is just simply too old--or is it that people are afraid of the ghosts from the past? Or do people don't know how to use a [...]
In New Hampshire things are nutty. I had an open house on a wonderful waterfront home in Northwood New Hampshire and over 250 people showed up. 15 offers well over asking waiving everything from inspections to covering significant appraisal [...]
