             Determining Market Value is a job for Realtors
The value of a home is determined by it's "Market Value". Market Value is defined as the price a willing seller will accept and a willing buyer will pay for a property that has been exposed to the market for a reasonable length of time.

st lucie county: Listening to Win a Client and Close a Transaction - 11/12/11 07:23 AM
 
The Rewards of Selling Real Estate- Positive Reinforcement

 Not long ago I wrote a Blog about Listen or Lose the Sale – Well someone did not and did which brought me a Great Success Story. Again a client was referred to me from a trusted lender who was frustrated with her current realtor (turns out realtors). One realtor was only showing her “junk” and was not listening to what she wanted to really see. Now this client was not a fan of house hunting to begin with so needless looking only added to her frustration. Another realtor bound her … (3 comments)

WHAT HAPPENED TO SERVICE WITH A SMILE?
 
I was just thinking today that some parts of this business have become so un-personable and sloppy it is a true shame. I had a closing yesterday that did not go well due to the unprofessionalism of the title company, no one present from the lender or selling side and a Notary conducting the closing despite it being AT the Title Company’s Office!
Now I have been to this Title Company’s office before. Yes- they have a gorgeous conference room with the Cherry table and tall Leather Chairs. The pen holders on the … (3 comments)

I WANT MY MOVING MONEY SO LET’S SHORT SALE…          BUT HOW DO I WRITE A HARDSHIP LETTER?
A Short Sale Package included a number of items required by the bank but one in particular always seems to stump home sellers. How do I write a hardship letter?
What should a Hardship Letter include?  Below is a sample hardship letter. A few things to remember…
·         Don’t come off blaming the bank or anyone else. Take responsibility for the inability to now pay. – The letter should be humbling and in a sense asking for forgiveness and help (regardless of … (1 comments)

st lucie county: Market Report Port St Lucie Florida Real Estate. Prices up from 2010 - 11/02/11 08:42 AM
Market report for Homes Sold in Port St Lucie the week of 10.24.11 to 10.31.11. These are homes that have closed/settled – not merely under contract.  
 

There is quite a swing from high to low. For kicks I went back and took out the highest sold to see how that would change the avg/median stats which was quite interesting. It only lowered the Median by 1400. and the avg by 9700.

Not a huge swing at all when you consider the amount of properties sold. The Avg. sold based on these numbers does seem high compared to … (1 comments)

st lucie county: Why Get Pre-Qualified? Buying Real Estate in Port St Lucie FL - 11/02/11 03:11 AM
Why should I get pre-qualified?
 
When you submit an offer to buy, banks and private sellers alike want to see if you are qualified to buy the home. A “pre-qualified” letter if often requested to be submitted with the offer to purchase. Getting pre-qualified for a loan will also determine the amount of loan an applicant is qualified for considering the debt to income ratio and purchase ability of the applicant. It is best to know how much home you can afford before shopping for the home.
 
What is the difference between being pre-qualified and pre-approved?
Pre-qualification is normally … (2 comments)

Listen or Lose the Sale
 
 I had a homebuyer call me today frustrated with "her realtor". Why.... She would not listen.
Caller.... "she is just wasting everyone’s time... she is showing us junk...she is NOT LISTENING!"
WOW... Long story short, she signed a short sale offer the other day for a house she does not want to wait for. She no longer wants to move forward with the short sale having later been educated by someone else about the short sale process. She also feels her realtor is trying to force her to stay with this offer … (10 comments)
