real estate: Negotiating Advice for Buyers and Agents Alike - Some Perspective from my 13-Year Career - 06/25/10 07:39 PM
Great advice for buyers in this market from Jason Crouch.
Via Jason Crouch, Broker - Austin Texas Real Estate (512-796-7653) (Austin Texas Homes, LLC):
One of my favorite things about being a real estate broker/agent is helping my buyer clients to negotiate the best deal on the home they have chosen. Having represented hundreds of buyers over my 13-year career, I've found that each situation is unique, and that's part of what I enjoy. The mental challenge makes it....fun? That may be too strong a word to describe it, but the strategy part is intriguing to me.

real estate: How To Disconnect From Your Home When Selling - 05/17/10 07:55 PM
What makes a house a home? The people that live in the house and everything they place in it are reflections of their lifestyle. When it's for sale, your home becomes a product. To capture potential buyers' attention, it is important to allow them to visualize living there, in "your" space. Real estate staging allows that to happen.
The secret is to turn the home back into a house. You, the seller, will be moving, so it helps to begin packing up personal belongings and collections. This alone opens up each room by decluttering and depersonalizing. Model homes sell lifestyles. Everything … (12 comments)

real estate: Are Home Inspections for Renegotiation or Buyer Protection - 12/09/09 12:09 PM
Via Rick Schwartz (William Raveis Real Estate):
It's fairly ubiquitous today to hire a licensed home inspector when purchasing a home. This is a good thing. For most folks a home purchase represents the largest amount of money to be spent in their lifetime. The home inspection contingency is typically one of the "big three" contingencies in an offer to purchase.
While specific language and format will vary, the basis of a home purchase agreement has, in essence, three components from the buyer's point of view.

real estate: 10 Don’ts When Buying Foreclosures - 11/24/09 07:26 PM
Via John Mulkey, Housing Guru (TheHousingGuru.com):
While there are sometimes bargains to be found in the purchase of foreclosures, there are also serious pitfalls. Foreclosures are not for the inexperienced. Use the following to help guide you through the process.
1. Don’t buy a foreclosure in the wrong area. Even if the home is a great deal, if you are planning to live there, you’ll probably regret your decision. Price is never the only factor. And even if you are an investor, if the home isn’t in the area you wanted, it may be better to look for another.

real estate: Deed Street - A new way to make your real estate tweets work for you (and help consumers). - 10/31/09 02:37 PM
Via Matt Stigliano (RE/MAX Access - San Antonio Real Estate Rockstar):
Take a walk on Deed Street.
I was introduced to Deed Street at Blog World 2009 thanks to Doug Lazovick, the founder and man behind the curtain. During the conference I actually spent quite a bit of time with Doug and got to know him and chat with him about Deed Street.
The idea of Deed Street is pretty simple. As you tweet about real estate in your local market, Deed Street pulls those tweets onto its site and lets users search through them in real time as they happen.
