 906 Main Street
On December 22, 2004, this Victorian beauty, built in 1871, at 906 MAIN STREET, in the Historic District of Van Buren, became the new home of MEDLOCK & WEST REALTY. With 3000 sq. ft. of heated area, it fits out needs perfectly.
When we purchased the property it was the residence of the Armstrong family, who had done extensive remodeling and restoration, and had turned the original front porch into a glassed in sunroom. In order to fit our needs, we undertook another remodeling project striving to keep everything as original as possible. The original floors, throughout the entire home were pine, but we were only able to save the upstairs floors, now refinished to their original beauty. The main floor now has new wood plank flooring. The staircase, made of African mahogany with pine treads, was in remarkably good shape and is now as beautiful as the day the home was built. Like many of the other old buildings in downtown Van Buren, this home, supposedly has its own ghost, but we have not met him yet!

About Appraisals >Working With A Real Estate Agent
It is not unusual for homeowners to yield to the temptation to try to sell their own home. It seems easy enough--just place an ad in the weekend paper and wait for buyers to show up. Although it may seem simple, real estate sales transactions are extremely complex proceedings.
The first pitfall can come with pricing your property realistically. Homeowners often price their property too high initially, then drastically slash the price when weeks go buy without an offer. Even if a prospective buyer agrees to the initial asking price, there could be complications if the buyers begin to feel that they have agreed to pay too much, or if the lender's appraisal values the property at far less than the agreed-upon price. Some clients hire agents to market their home professionally after weeks or months of trying to sell their own home without success, or after their FSBO transaction fell through.
