shepherdsville homes: Shepherdsville Homes are Flying Off the Shelves
- 05/25/09 04:13 PM
Shepherdsville investors and first-time home buyers are coming out of the woodwork and snatching up homes. With low interest rates, great selection and incentives for first time home buyers, the message has started to get out. Now is a great time to buy Shepherdsville Homes!
I was contacted by a young couple early last week who were interested in seeing homes. Due to his work schedule, Saturday turned out to be the best time to go looking. Over the next few days, we emailed properties back and forth to confirm an itinerary. What was easy a few months ago, has suddenly become a little difficult. Despite the fact they had only … (5 comments)

shepherdsville homes: Louisville Homes Sales Heat Up - Sold, Sold and Sold
- 04/13/09 05:30 PM
In the last few weeks, I have sold 3 of my listings and have 1 under contract. In addition, I have helped buyers find some great homes at very fair prices. While area sales are still down compared to past years; homes that are Priced correctly, Prepared well and Promoted properly are selling. Look at the stats below and decide for yourself whether the Louisville real estate market is healthy.
4-Bedroom Mt Washington Home One of the best values in Mt Washington, this home also offered a finished basement, huge deck, and good-sized yard. The buyers moved from a condo in Louisville and were thrilled to find … (6 comments)
shepherdsville homes: Selling My Shepherdsville Home ~ The Closing ~ Part 9
- 04/09/09 03:22 PM
Continued from Negotiating the Offer Once the repair request is successfully negotiated the rest of the home selling process involves completing tasks in an orderly manner and dodging landmines. In our case, we were moving into a small investment property while we continued to search for a new home. This involved a little more planning as we had to determine which of our belongings we were taking and which went to storage. Goodwill and Eco-tech also received their fair share.
The agent is generally responsible for defusing the mines or taking the brunt of the impact. Fortunately, we barely encountered … (7 comments)

We were thrilled to receive an offer as quickly as we did, but were shocked to see that it was for less than full price. Don't these people know how great our house is? What the heck are they thinking? This is insulting! I don't even want to respond. Well....maybe it wasn't that bad. Besides, I always recommend countering an offer no matter how ludicrous the initial offer. In this case, the buyers were not too far from the number my wife and I expected. After a couple passes back and forth, we were able to come to a price that … (9 comments)
The Tuesday after the insane woman viewed our Shepherdsville home, another agent called to setup a Wednesday showing. The good news was the kids hadn't been able to do much damage to the house during the preceding days. The bad news was the combination of a 4:30p showing time, my previous plans and the fact that both kids had colds meant my wife basically had to drive them around for 15 30 45 minutes while this couple toured our home. Oh well, we all have to make sacrifices :) As I turned into The Pointe around 6:30, my phone rang. The buyer's agent wanted to know … (10 comments)
shepherdsville homes: Selling my Shepherdsville Home ~ The First Showing ~ Part 6
- 02/23/09 02:43 PM
Continued from Listing My Home This isn't my first rodeo. I've sold homes before. I've even sold investment properties that I owned. For some reason, every day that passed and I didn't get a call, was nerve-racking. The remnants of the snow and ice storm pretty well shot the first weekend. People were too busy cleaning up and restocking their current homes to bother looking for a new one. By mid-week, my buyer clients and leads started calling. They wanted to schedule showings or get more information on homes. The work was distracting, but I still kept waiting for that first call on … (10 comments)
All of the preliminary work is complete and it is time to let buyers know that my Shepherdsville home is for sale. The next step is to implement the marketing plan. You simply cannot sell a house if the prospective buyer does not know it exists. Therefore, I concentrate on informing as many people as possible that the house is for sale. By casting a wide net, I increase the odds that I find THE buyer who is willing to pay the most money in the shortest amount of time. Like average listing agents, I put a … (6 comments)
Completing a full CMA and determining a reasonable listing price and expected selling price is normally one of the first things I would complete for prospective clients. As I pay particular attention to all real estate activity in The Pointe, I have a fairly good idea of my home's selling potential. Since, I was comfortable with the price range, I put this exercise off until I was ready to list the home. Once all of the preparation was complete and the marketing materials were ready, it was time to get serious about the numbers. Today's market demands extra vigilence when setting price. Even being off … (6 comments)
shepherdsville homes: Selling my Shepherdsville Home ~ Promotional Materials ~ Part 3
- 02/17/09 03:39 PM
Continued from Preparing the Home Although the house is ready for buyers, I wanted to have all of the promotional materials completed BEFORE the house hit the market. In order to accomplish this goal, I needed to lay the foundation for my integrated marketing campaign. Among other things, this includes Take photographs and resize them for various outlets Create a Virtual Tour Create and order Flyers and Postcards Research Neighborhood, Schools, Taxes, Etc Photographs - Of course, a wide angle lens is a requirement.
Create a Virtual Tour - Upload photos and develop descriptions for each.

Continued from Selling my Shepherdsville Home ~ Part 1 Once we decided to sell our Shepherdsville home, we immediately made a list of everything required to prepare it for sale. To compile this list, we went room by room and tried to see the home as a buyer would. The biggest areas of focus were the 3 C's of Staging... Clean Clutter-free Color From dusting the ceiling fans to wiping down baseboards, our first priority was to make sure that buyers wouldn't have any reason to think that this was not a well-kept home. The carpets had been … (9 comments)
shepherdsville homes: A View from the other side - Selling my Shepherdsville Home ~ Post #1
- 02/12/09 01:44 PM
I spend hours every month analyzing the Louisville area housing market. I note which homes are selling and which ones are not. I pass this information along in my Market Report posts along with general recommendations for buyers and sellers. While I try to avoid using the copy-paste function, my advice has been pretty consistent for some time now. Buyers should buy. Sellers should hold unless they are trading up or their house has become a burden. When interest rates slipped under 5%, I knew it was time to practice what I preach. My wife and I made the decision to put … (8 comments)

shepherdsville homes: How to Market your Louisville Area Home Online
- 01/06/09 03:20 PM
If you are thinking about selling your Louisville or Bullitt County home, be sure to consider the following 3 points closely. 1) Eighty-Five percent (85%) of buyers start their property search online. They want information, pictures, virtual tours. If they do not find it, the move on. I have had clients literally refuse to tour a home because there was only one photo online. 2) There are dozens of places that a buyer can search for homes and a large number of them are NOT fed from the MLS. If your agent doesn't put your home on the site, the buyer will never find … (6 comments)
