seller: Seller, think carefully before sending the counter offer out.
- 06/07/11 09:56 AM
Seller, your house is on the market for sale, you are hoping it will be sold in a reasonable amount of time. Better yet, you got a very nice offer in the first week after it is on the market. Yippee! I know it will be ideal to reach the goal of netting certain amount that you hope for. But, it is very hard to have a pre-approved buyer in today's market, if the offer is good and may cost you a little short from what you want to net, yet you are still ahead, think thoroughly before countering back for more money.

seller: Selling your house AS-IS means nothing to a buyer at all in Marion Ar
- 05/09/11 06:29 AM
Selling your house AS-IS means nothing to a buyer at all in Marion Ar Are you trying to sell your house? Do you try to sell it the way it is, without doing any repairs, updating, and the unfinished painting? Unless you are really selling it real cheap, giving it away, AS-IS otherwise means nothing to the home buyer at all. Many time, the seller wants to sell their house AS-IS because they simply don't want to do the work that needed to be done and put more money in the house. Even a bank owned foreclosure sometimes can't sell the … (10 comments)
seller: If someone told you have to buy from them but no one else, you'd better run!
- 05/03/11 05:51 AM
If someone told you have to buy from them but no one else, you'd better run! I am a listing agent and also a buyer agent, I represent my seller or buyer, and I know how and what it takes to carry a transaction all the way to closing on either side. We are licensed real estate professionals, also independent contractors; which means we get paid when we close a transaction, not just showing a house to a buyer or help a seller to put their house for sale alone. I wish it worked that way, but we are not. We are strictly commission based. … (10 comments)

In a real estate transaction, a buyer and a seller takes an opposite role, everyone knows about that, no need for explanation. But they both also share many things in common, no matter they agree it or not. And lots of times it is human nature is trying to take its course:
Ego - There are times that a buyer and a seller can't come to an agreement of a negotiation is because each party wants to see who gets the last word. It is human nature … (14 comments)

seller: Is it necessary to get a home warranty?
- 03/26/10 05:49 AM
Is it necessary to get a home warranty? Home warranty is not the same as home insurance, and you don't get it through your insurance agent. Just like anything else on the market, there are different home warranty companies for you to choose, ask your REALTOR® to give you some recommendations. As I mentioned earlier, home warranty is not the same as home insurance, you don't have to have it before closing, you can purchase it anytime. There are certain things that the warranty will and will not cover, you can custom what you need for your home. Ask your agent to give you the brochure to see the coverage, … (11 comments)

Sellers-What you need to know before listing your house on the market No matter what is your reason of selling your house, there are a few things you need to know before putting your house on the market for sale. How many competitors in your area- if you want to "win" this game, you need to do your homework. You need to know about the competition you are up against, know how to compete. Be realistic of pricing-why do you think everybody keeps saying it is a buyer's market? Because there are plenty of inventories out there, when it is overstocked, price will … (8 comments)
seller: Home made project-you started it, you finished it the right way, not your way
- 11/15/09 05:01 PM
With the new $6,500 tax credit for existing home owners till 4/30/10, I can foresee more home owners are more ready and willing to put their home on the market. Is your house ready for sale, or you need to do some projects first? Do you like to watch "Weekend Warriors" on HGTV, doesn't it bring the inner contractor side out of you? All the demolition, design, vision, color matching......just can't wait to start that project you have been putting away, can you? There is nothing to it, it only takes those home owners one or some weekend/s from start to finish, I can … (5 comments)
