Sometimes when this market is rough and times are stressful is it always nice to get a great e-mail such as this.

Dear Jason,
 
 My wife and I can't thank you enough for all of your hard work and effort in getting our house SOLD!  In arguably one of the toughest times to sell a house, you not only found a buyer, but went above and beyond to coordinate and advise to make it an extremely easy process for us.  Having moved three states away and trying to sell a house was a scary thought, but you handled eveything from getting repairs made and documents shipped to attending our closing for us, which made it truly an effortless experience for us. 
 
 Your professionalism and attentiveness as our subdivision's property manager and as my realtor was comforting and enjoyable.  You kept us informed and always made us feel welcome if we ever had any questions or concerns.
 
 We sincerely thank you and the whole Backyard Realty team for your dedication and quality of service.
 
 Best wishes in the future.
 
 Sincerely,
 
 John and Lea Trant

BUYERS:

There are a lot of deals out there and you don't need to be an investor to get one! If you look you will see that there are a lot of homes on the market with a lot of equity and one of them could be yours!  The media is drawing a lot of attention to the banks and loan companies stating it is impossible to get a home loan and that you need to have cash.  This is only partially true.  Yes it is more difficult than in the past to get a home loan but that does not mean that they are not out there. 

 There are many down payment assistant programs out there as well that you may qualify for:

•·         Georgia Dream Homeownership Program: GA Dream Homeownership Program works with low to moderate income families by assisting with fixed, low interest rate mortgage loans.

•·         American Dream Downpayment Initiative (ADDI): Assisting families with incomes below 80% of the median income in their area and are first time homebuyers.

•·         NE Georgia Down Payment Assistant Program: Assistance for down payment funds that are available for first time home buyers and repeat home-buyers.

•·         Atlanta Development Authority: ADA offers 4 different mortgage assistance programs to help with the purchase of your home.

•·         Dekalb County First-Time Homebuyer Program: Assists first-time home buyers that have not owned a home in the last 3 years.

•·         Cobb Housing, Inc: Offers 4 loan products for first-time home buyers.

I work closely with Andrew Kelly at Multi Mortgage Corp who can work with you on all your mortgage needs.  Visit his website at: http://www.multimortgagecorp.com/

SELLERS:

Yes it is true that it is a buyers market the odds are not necessarily in your favor.  However, do not let this discourage you.  I see properties being sold daily and you do not have to practically give it away.  There is a lot of competition on the market right now and a house that is priced according to the market and is in great condition is very likely to bring a buyer.  Homes are not selling as fast as they once did but times change.  Many home experts are saying if you want to sell your home right now make sure it is completely ready to be sold and is in good shape.  Because of the competition out there homes that need a lot of work and do not have curb appeal may sit longer than those that are in great shape.  There are many small things that you can do to prepare your home for the market.  I would be happy to meet with you and discuss preparing your home to be sold. 

Here are some of my articles that may be of help:

The way you think determines your attitude.  Your reactions to the situations you are presented with can determine how the outcome plays out.  The media is bringing a lot of negative attention to the current economy and the recession.  Like any issue that you face this recession is a large speedbump that you must get over.  The more postively that you think about the situation the easier it will be to conquer the negative.  Think about this as a time to work on the things that you need and want.  This is a time to catch up to all the people you have envied and who have been ahead of you.  Set goals, live up to them, adapt with the times, change the ways you think and don't just think about ideas act on them!

I found this article to be very interesting and empowering.  Its Not the Recession, It's Your Reaction

If you are selling your home for sale by owner then do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I am here as a resource if you need me!

Have you decided to sell your home on your own, For Sale by Owner (FSBO)?  The process of selling your home FSBO can be very empowering and rewarding when resulting in a sale.  However it can also be very confusing, time-consuming and stress-inducing.  You have to prepare the home to sell, market the home, effectively price the home, negotiate the sale and make sure you are filling out the proper paperwork.  It is also important that you hire a real estate attorney, title insurance  company, inspector, etc to help with the process.  Unfortunately there are drawbacks to selling FSBO such as: incurring legal liability due to paperwork being filled out improperly, receiving a lower sale price due to lack of negotiation or improper pricing or having a hard time finding a buyer.  Buyer's agents may not show a home that is not paying full commission.

How can I help?

•If you are up to the task of selling FSBO and need help...please contact me.

•I can help you price your home by providing you with a free Community Market Analysis to help you decide the correct price for your home. (Your home should be priced according to the SOLD price of the homes around you in the last 6 months)

•I can recommend various professionals to help with the process such as real estate attorneys, inspectors, etc.

•I can also give suggestions on how to prepare your home to sell, how to stay within the time restraints after a contract has been expected and how to utilize and fill out essential paperwork.

If you are selling FSBO and have any questions please feel free to use me as a resource!
