selling a home: Is losing money selling your home now a sound investment stragtegy???? - 01/15/09 12:50 AM
No one likes to lose. Absolutely NO ONE likes to lose big. And nobody ever wants to lose especially when it comes to things that they have put time effort money and so on into or are emotionally attached to.
But of course here in lies one of the biggest mistakes many of today's home owners are making. How many of you have recently met with or spoken with a home owner who wants to "wait out the market?" Or who has their home currently listed too high to compete? All of us have. Now waiting it out, or renting it for the … (1 comments)

selling a home: Crunch the numbers--buying now or waiting...... - 12/27/08 05:02 PM
It's so so funny, when it is a "Seller's market" Sellers do not even hesitate to go ahead and sell if there are ANY compelling reasons to do so and in many cases their reason it to sell and buy a nicer or bigger house.
Fast forward to a "Buyer's market" . This is when buyers should be buying right? But instead it often becomes a time of great uncertainty for buyers. Why? For one thing many of them want to "Time" the market. The problem is....no one really can. If this were possible, those of us who worked in the … (0 comments)

selling a home: False information posted on FSBO Site about Realtor.com - 11/18/08 03:20 PM
Just got this from our Realtor Group here in WA, thought I'd pass it along.--
Contrary to what the ForSaleByOwner.com news release says....
1) They are NOT in a partnership with REALTOR.com2) The settlement between NAR and the DOJ did NOT force REALTOR.com to accept FSBO property listings3) Properties from sellers not represented by Realtors will NOT appear on REALTOR.com4) MLSs still get to decide which listings to distribute to REALTOR.com
As Michael Wurzer explained on the Flex MLS blog, "So, this is just another version of a limited service listing, not some revolution in policy regarding FSBOs."
Also, as … (2 comments)

selling a home: Real Estate Article in Boston Globe - 09/14/08 10:18 PM
I was contacted by a reporter from the Boston Globe a couple weeks back she was working on an article about truth in advertising for getting a house sold. (pretty much that it is good to tell it like it is.) She came across a blog I had written, "Personal Ads/Real Estate Ads, reading between the lines." She contacted me for quotes and had some questions. I just got an email today to let me know that the article just came out. A fellow KW agent was also quoted. I hope it helps get the much needed information to sellers and … (8 comments)

selling a home: Organizing your fridge, tips for home sellers and everyone else - 08/04/08 10:34 AM
Ok, I admit it cleaning and organizing your fridge is a weird topic. However I have shown homes to many many buyers and almost every one of them looks inside the fridge if there is one.

So.....here are some tips for those of you with a home on the market, and for everyone else who will feel better and save time with a clean fridge, after all, likely you look at … (2 comments)

An ideal time to sell a home? Really? Yes really and here is why........
***Right now ab out 85% of the inventory ( and there is alot of it ) is over priced. So.....a home that is priced right really stands out.

Well, the homes are priced right or even below market, these homes generate lots and lots of interest. This is a chance for your home to stand out. List it, but list is competitively. Think of it like … (0 comments)
