Having an open house is an excellent way to market the home. You will definitely get a lot of curious neighbors coming into the home which is a great way to get the word spreading.
To prepare for the open house make sure the home is as clean as possilbe and free of clutter. Turn on a few lights and open the curtains to assure a bright feeling to the home. Would not be a bad idea to bring along a bottle of air freshener to give the home a nice smell.
The outside of the home is the first thing your potiental buyers will see. Make sure the lawn is cut and the bushes are trimmed and there is no clutter in the yard. Park the cars along the curb if you can, free up the driveway.
Let the neighbors know, they will no doubt wonder why there may be a bunch of people coming and going from the home. Have a sign up sheet ready at the front door. You want to get their name, address, phone number, email if possible and how they heard about the Open House.
You are going to run across buyers who may not be serious but just looking. Making a good impression without giving out too much of your valuable time will give you opportunity.They may call a friend who is looking for a home and recommend you. Have your business cards ready.
Your buyers will arrive with questions. Make notes of key places and the distance, like grocery stores, schools, malls, airports ahead of time. Inside the home will bring questions as well, how old the air conditioner is or the roof, make sure you have an estimate time frame for this as well.
Give your buyers reasons for the homes potential . Maybe it has a bonus room that could be used as another bedroom or office. A garage turned into a game room. Let them know that any large or construction improvements will need to be checked with the county or city permit office and they can answer questions too.
Other key tips are:
o Have the Open House on the Weekend o Keep the Hours between Noon and 5PM o Advertise the Open House with Flyers and Classified Ads o Place signs along the main roads leading to the home o Bring Drinks and Snacks for you and/or your Guests

Here's a simple exercise to a more promising future. First, print this quote. Next, cut it out.
Then tape it to your bathroom mirror. Tape it to the bottom of your computer monitor at work. Heck, tape it to your treadmill, the back of your cell phone, your kids' bedroom doors.
By reading and reflecting on this quote each day, you allow all of life's minutiae to fall to the floor.
And you remain focused on what's truly important: Family, friends, health, career, and happiness.
The best source for pre-foreclosure information is the county courthouse. Real estate transactions are recorded in the county in which the property is located.
You will need to look for the pre-foreclosures in the county you are interested in. A property in residing in county #1 cannot be found by looking in county #2. This information is public record and anyone can simply go and look at it. Most county courthouses are big imposing buildings filled with lots of official departments and offices.
The first trip to the courthouse can be intimidating to the nervous visitor. Make the process easier by getting some information in advance. Call and ask which office or department handles real estate transactions. Generally, it is the county clerk or county recorder’s office. Call this department and get some basic information such as where in the courthouse they are located, what hours they are open to the public, etc.
Courthouse records have valuable information for pre-foreclosure investors. What exactly are you looking for? That depends on what phase of pre-foreclosure you are dealing with and the state in which you are located. In trust deed states, for example, you will look for Notices of Default. In states that use the mortgage system, look for a Lis Pendens.
Other public records of interest can be found at the tax collector’s office. People who are seriously behind on their property taxes are often also in default on their home loan. In addition, keep an eye out for notices (either in the newspaper or at the courthouse) of current lawsuits. You may spot information on a legal battle involving a home in pre-foreclosure.

A one year extension of the first time home buyer tax credit bill has been passed by the House of Representatives unanimously, for service members serving overseas. This will apply for men, women and their spouses of the Foreign Service and intelligence who served outside the US for at least 90 days in 2009 and served an official extended duty. Another benefit to this bill is that if the service member sells their home within three years of purchase because of deployment, it will eliminate the repayment penalty for firt time home buyers. It is now in the Senate for consideration after passing 416-0.
Updates on the first time home buyers credit does not stop there though. There has been a call from Realtors, bankers and home builders, starting a campaign for an extension and expanion of the $8,000 tax credit that is set to expire November 30th of this year.
This is what they are asking for: $8000 tax credit might be nearly doubled to $15,000 November 30, 2009 is when the current tax incentive ends, may extend to the end of 2010 Restrictions will be removed for those who currently already have a home or earn $75k per year
The current tax credit has helped to save over 1.2 million home buyers who entered the market since February of 2009 and of that 1.2 million home buyers, according to a study by the National Association of Realtors, 350,000 wouldn’t have bought a home at all.
The tax credit is having an impact in lifting sales, and now is the best time to be out there doing Short Sales.
