Although, the buyer is looking for a bargain remember that once you set your price according to the market you can have more than one offer on your property. I sold a property with 4 offers and then my seller got more than the ASKING PRICE. so don't be afraid to adjust your price.The buyer will pay for it if your make it looks like it's WORTH it in the end.

4. Easy showing: Make it easy for the buyer to take a look at your home.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN BUYING IN A TIGHT MARKET

2008-09-07T16:09:11Z

Increase your chances of getting your dream house instead of losing to another buyer,with these easy steps.

1. Get prequalified for a mortgage. You'll be able to make a firm commitment to buy and make your offer more desirable to the seller.

2. Stay in close touch with your real estate sales associate to find our first about new listings that come on the market. And be ready to go see a house as soon as it goes on the market.

3. Scout our new listing youreself. Look at internet sites, newspaper ads, and drive by the neighborhood frequently. Maybe you'll see a brand-new"for Sale" sign before anyone.

4. Be ready to make a decision. Spend lots of time in advance deciding what you must have so you won't be unsure when you have the chance to make an offer.

5. Bid competitively. You may not want to start out offering the absolute highest price you can afford,but don't try to go too low to get a deal. In a tight market, you'll lose out.

6. Keep contingencies to a minimum. Restrictions such as as needing to sell your home before you move or wanting to delay the closing until a certain date can make your offer unappealing. In a tight market, you'll probably be able to sell your house rapidly.

7. Don't get caught in a buying frenzy. Just because there's competition doesn't mean you should just buy anything. And even though you want to make your offer attractive,don't neglect inspections that help ensure that your house is sound.

If your considering purchasing your first home or looking to upgrade into a bigger home. Take notes on these tips they will help you reach your goal in the end.

Market report for Nassau county/ Suffolk County: LONG ISLAND

2008-07-21T21:53:09Z

NASSAU /SUFFOLK COUNTY HAS BEEN BUSY FOR THE MONTH OF MAY AND JUNE:

The Market has a lot to offer for a buyer: Lets look at what the market has been doing on Long Island

May 2008 Nassau County: Listing: Residential Properties....10,808: What sold in May: 657 at an Average Price: $577,400: Median Price : $438,500

In June: Nassau County: Listing: Residential Properties...11,067: What sold in June 808 at an Average price at 576,900 and the Median Price: 452,000

Suffolk County: May 2008: Listing: Residential Properties: 18,492 What sold in May: 756 at an Average Price: 430,500 and a Median Price at: 360,000

Suffolk County June 2008: Lisiting: Residential Properties: 15,332 What sold in June: 878 Average Price at 460,500 and at a Median Price ate 399,000.

Comparing these two months: You could see that properties sold in Nassau County went up during the month of June and the Average Price and Median prices for a home that sold during that time as remain the same...

Lets take a look at Suffolk county sold properties also went up during the month of June and the Average price of selling a home also went up... I wonder what will happen during the month of July.. maybe the properties that are sold during this month will go up since everyone wants to move before school starts or they are taken advantage of the low interest rate before it goes up.... or before the changing of the guards..

WHAT DOES INDEPENDENCE DAY MEANS TO YOU?

2008-07-04T10:05:52Z

Independence day means different things to everyone.. but for me it means that we have a country that has made us free to make our own decisions. We are so Blessed to live in a country that respect our own Religion and our own opinion about the government.

Lets take a look at the countries all around us that doesn't give it's people the opportunity to live a FREE During this day lets remember all our hero's who has lead the way for us to have this FREEDOM.

We have a lot to give God thanks for unlike many other countries their Government makes decision for them and then they have to follow the rules, but has a nation we have freedom to make our own decisions.

How to Speed up the sale of your home

2008-06-15T20:23:50Z

The market has changed and everyone is trying to sell and sell it faster than their competitors..Just take a look at how to speed up the sale......

1. PRICE IT RIGHT.Set the price at the lower end of your property's realistic price range.

2. GET YOUR HOUSE MARJET-READY for at least two weeks before you begin showing it.

3. BE FLEXIBLE ABOUT SHOWINGS. It's often disruptive to have a house ready to show on the spur of the moment,but the more often someone can see your home,the sooner you'll find a seller.

4. BE READY FOR THE OFFERS. Decide in advance what price and terms you'll find acceptable.

5. DON'T REFUSE TO DROP THE PRICE. If your home has been on the market for more tham 30 days without an offer,be prepared to lower your asking price.

THE MOST IMPORTANT IS TO SHOW THE BUYER WHY YOU LOVE YOUR HOME AND WHY YOU BROUGHT THIS HOUSE AND THEN THEY WILL BUY IT TOO.

Do you need Inventory to stay in the business.......

2008-06-10T12:12:49Z

Inventory.....Inventory....We need inventory to stay in the business, but with the changes in the market you have to find a nich to staying in business. I think that if you don't have any inventory you can still stay in the business. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I think that working with buyers will give you a great income and also expand your knowledage. Many Buyers are waiting for the special Realtor that will educate, and give them a helping hand, so that they can find that Perfect home at an afforable PRICE.

The cost of working with a buyer:

1. What are they looking for: The call comes in.....I would like to view that home listed on the internet..before doing anything....make sure you discuss with your client what exactly what they are looking for...guide them gently on what is availabe and what price they can afforable. MAKE A LIST OF WHAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IN THEIR HOME.... REMEMBER TO TAKE THAT LUST WITH YOU WHEN YOUR SHOWING THEM THE HOME.....IF THEY FORGET WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING FOR. YOU'LL HAVE THE LIST TO REMIND THEM OF WHAT THEY REALLY WANT IN THEIR DREAM HOME.... The list will guide you and keep the buyer on track.

2. Do they have approval for a loan: Many buyers have DREAMS .... but we all know that dreams with out the money will not buy the home...so make sure the client can get the loan amount before going out to look for that dream home.... It will save you time....

3. Buyers are a great source for REFERALS: Once you have assist the buyer in purchasing their home and walk them through the process step by step.....Don't forget them... make sure you keep in contact with them and don't wait for their annverisary date of their closing. They will remember your name whenever their freinds are families are looking for a home to buy.

4. They can bring out the beast or the best out of you: after that phone call and you've sit with them and explained how you work,but they didn't commit ( sign a buyer's agreement). You decide to take them out and then they stated that they would sign the contact later. After showing them a few properties, they decided to work with another Realtor.... What do you say at this point....just don't let the beast come out... remember that you have to show another home to another buyer, so you have to smile all the way through it....

If you have the inventory and you are consider working with buyers don't forget the cost, but I think it's worth it. You can a friend for life.
