brentwood: When "Better than new" really IS! - 06/30/13 12:16 AM
In all my 20+ years of selling real estate in Middle Tennessee, I have been the curmudgeon when it comes to being a believer that ANY house could be “Better than new.”

There IS such a thing as “Better … (3 comments)

brentwood: 105 Timbercrest Ct, River Oaks, Brentwood, TN $499,900 - 04/05/12 01:58 AM
Simply Remarkable 4000+ SF House with Open spaces, Retreat areas, expansion potential - Prime Brentwood Location
 
  
  
105 Timbercrest Ct is exceptional in SO many ways for the Buyer who has a thirst for getting away from it ALL while being just a short hop to the interstate and all things Nashville, TN. What’s most exciting to me about this house (other than the location) is the flexibility of the space . . . Everything from myriad “Play Spaces” . . . Places for retreating and relaxing . . . or exercising . . . or working (Home Office) . . . The lower … (2 comments)

brentwood: SO! Do we REALLY "Sell" a house to a Buyer? #in - 10/21/10 02:43 AM
So - Do we SELL a house to a Buyer?
Posted on October 21, 2010 by Barry Owen
I'm a believer that we cannot SELL a house to a Buyer.
No! REALLY!
The house has to do all the selling . . . by being in the right place (location) at the right time in the right condition with the right amenities/features and number of rooms at the right price for the right Buyer who just happens to be looking for that precise blend of stuff and enough money to buy.
The Buyer is the decision maker . . . the one who ultimate determines … (1 comments)

brentwood: Nashville Market Up-date - January 2009 - 02/17/09 07:32 AM
HERE’S what we have been hoping to see . . .
Especially after a particularly dry November, December, and January, we REALTORS are feeling a welcomed bit of SPRING in the air already in the Local Real Estate Market. It’s not ALL blooming roses yet but we are seeing some good signs towards the beginnings of recovery.
Comparing the numbers from January 2008 and January of 2009 (as told by the reports from the Associations of REALTORS at the bottom of this message), the number of closings are WAY off the pace – In a BAD way. What those reports … (1 comments)
