Freddie Mac Lists Average Mortgage Rate at 3.94%

According to a report on the Freddie Mac website December 15, 2011 the average rate for a 30 year mortgage is currently 3.94%. This low rate will hopefully lead to more mortgage approvals and home sales to help bolster our still battered economy.

There are other considerations to buying a home besides the mortgage rate though, especially for someone buying a second home for use during the vacation season. When it comes to buying a vacation home the three most important things to consider may still very well be, “location, location and location.”

The Hamptons has long been the top luxury vacation spot of the east coast for many reasons. Aside from the most beautiful beaches on the east coast, there are the shops, four and five star restaurants and many art galleries to visit. There are also concerts, film festivals and celebrations all year round that make the Hamptons much more than just a summer vacation spot.

Top Hamptons’ area realtor Bill Williams has been serving the needs of buyers here for over 11 years. His expertise in all facets of home sales, construction and renovation makes him the number one realtor for you to consult with when purchasing a home in the east coast’s number one luxury resort. Whether you want a new home, a historic mansion or something in between, Bill Williams will use his expertise of the area to find it for you.

It may a little unusual to go off on a long weekend for Christmas but seeing in the New Year in the Hamptons can make the holiday all the more special.

Contact the area’s top realtor and make arrangements for a luxury rental property to be used to celebrate the holiday or for the coming summer.

South Fork Place Names, Sag Harbor

I picked up this nice little Book called “South Fork Place Names” written by the late William Mulvihill of Sag Harbor. It is a very interesting book describing how and why Hamptons places and streets were named. I will be sharing some of there facts with you from time to time. The first entry is Sag Harbor. ..Early English settlers on the south fork discovered that a mainstay of the Indian diet was a tuber that grew in abundance in low swampy areas. This tuber had many names including  Bog Potato. The original pilgrims ate them during their first precarious New England winter, and botanist consider them to be one of the most important wild foods. If it had not been for the potato, the bog potato would have been the first tuber to be cultivated. the indians called the plant “sagga”, and the word founds its way into Saggabon, Saggaponak, and Sagg. The harbor of Sagg evolved into Sag Harbor.

Winding Down the Year in the Hamptons

The year of 2011 will be soon gone and there are still many reasons to ease into next year by having a getaway to the East Coast’s most luxurious resort haven. The relaxation offered by this vacation spot will of course include seasonal treats. The Westhampton beach performing arts center will be offering two ballet performances of The Nutcracker Suite that is perfect entertainment for the whole family.

There will also be the annual East Hampton and Amagansett stroll which will have all the stores and shops decked out in full holiday regalia. The usual activities that are in the area like horseback riding and antiquing and just plain hanging out wherever your feet take you offer the rest and relaxation that the holiday’s in the city just can’t provide.

This time of year can be a great time to check out a luxury rental from Bill Williams. The place you visit now could be available for your family’s summer vacation and it would be nice to have a tryout before you make your final decision. There are many styles of homes available and whether you want a seaside residence or something more remote you can be sure your needs will be attended to by the area’s top realtor.

Contact the office and make arrangements before it is too late. The year is going by fast but you can still see it out with a nice relaxing farewell.

Walking in a Winter Wonderland

The Hamptons is undoubtedly the number one luxury spot of the east coast. The summer time there can be the most enjoyable time of the year. Summer isn’t the only time of year when the activities are hot though – many people think that the most enjoyable time of the year in the Hamptons are the holidays. The winter is coming to the Hamptons but it’s still warm enough to put on your walking shoes and explore some of the most relaxing activities anywhere in the state.

A check of the calendar shows that art is being given the royal treatment by the east end of Long Island. Cutting edge art that combines abstract expressionism with digital imaging of can be viewed from November 27 to December 17 at Arthur Kalaher Fine Art. For those who want to get more hands on with their art there are some crafts classes offered for adults and children in December as well.

In most cases these incredible activities will be practically right outside the door of your amazing Hamptons’ luxury rental property. It is easy to get the luxury rental of your dreams by calling the area’s top realtor Bill Williams. At this time of year the quiet streets and relaxed atmosphere of the Hamptons is just what you need to decompress a bit from the hectic shopping season.
