"Magic letter" makes some Knoxville sales fly. - 01/31/08 02:36 PM
Whenever you submit an offer on behalf of a customer or buyer client, have you thought of writing a cover letter to go along with your offer to give the sellers some idea of what your buyer is about, why they want to buy the seller's house, and any other information that might cause the sellers to see the buyers as real people instead of just a couple of names on a piece of paper?

Knoxville Tennessee 2007 Home Sales Report is now available - 01/19/08 08:56 PM
The long awaited 2007 Sales Report for the greater Knoxville Tennessee area is finally available.
It shows the numbers for the greater Knoxville area were't too shabby at all. Sales volume declined 10.8% overall but average sales prices increased the usual 3-5% coming in a 4.4% for 2007.
Days on market increased 9 days from 83 in 2006 to 92 in 2007.

Stay tuned.

The most heavily visited days are now Wednesdays and Thursdays whereas … (4 comments)

So this week I'm over at Hilton Head Island for a little winter getaway.

I've just finished emailing a home inspection contingency release to a buyer after negotiating a cash settlement for some defects revealed during our home inspection back in Knoxville yesterday.
I called my buyer via cell phone and instructed him to fax the signed copy to my MyFax email account so I can forward it to the seller's agent who is also back in Knoxville.
Since we arrived Sunday I've also scheduled closings for the 3 sales I completed … (4 comments)
