$19,000 raised for Special Olympics in 1 night by Fort Smith Board of Realtors!

Ray Nellum Fort Smith Real Estate (Warnock Real Estate, LLC.) — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 13:54:00 -0600

Trivia Night with the Fort Smith Board of Realtors has turned out to be a huge success for raising money for Special Olympics. Last year’s event raised $14,000.

This year, an amazing $19,000 was raised!!

People got teams together for an evening of fun in support of a great cause; Special Olympics! Even in a struggling economy, it’s great to see people come out and continue to give freely with their time and money.

Trivia Night is one event the Fort Smith Board of Realtors supports for Special Olympics. Last year, the FSBOR raised almost $25,000 for the organization, and was one of the largest board contributors in the state!

I am positive we will raise more that $25,000 this year!

The Fort Smith Board of Realtors have raised a lot of money for the Special Olympics, but we know our job is not complete. We’ve got more events during the year to build upon our current amount. So many lives have been positively influenced through such efforts. You can do your part and donate to Special Olympics!

I would really like to thank Brenda Garrett with Bradford and Udouj Realtors! Brenda takes great ownership as our Chairperson for Special Olympics. Her passion and commitment is a testament. “Good People, Can Do Great Things!” The Fort Smith Board of Realtors could NOT have a better Ambassador for Special Olympics than Brenda Garrett. Thanks Brenda!!!

Multiple Offers, a Myth in Fort Smith Real Estate Market??

Ray Nellum Fort Smith Real Estate (Warnock Real Estate, LLC.) — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 19:16:13 -0600

The Fort Smith Real Estate Market saw the good old’ days of multiple offers and short times on the market. That was a couple of years ago, and everyone loved it.

Are those days long gone? Not totally!

The Fort Smith Real Estate Market still has some very competitive homes on the market, and the Fort Smith Housing Market is getting better.

I just listed a house. A few days later. Baam!!! Kaboom!!! Multiple offers on the table and I’ve got a seller that has some decisions to make!!! Problem? That’s a good problem to have!

Home sales in Fort Smith are down, but not drastically.

If your home is on the market in the Fort Smith area, it is vital that you POSITION your home to sell! You’ve got to do more than just slap a coat of paint on the wall. You’ve got to do more than just plant some flowers in the front yard. My good friend, Lynda Eisenmann has an awesome Blog post pertaining to Position vs. Pricing.

You’ve got to POSITION yourself ahead of your competition! The pricing of your home is very important, but in a difficult market, you’ve got to do everything you can to POSITION your more effectively in a competitive market. You have to POSITION ahead of of your competitors with: Price, Condition, Appeal, and Value. I will cover these key components in a future post.

Multiple Offers are NOT a myth in the Fort Smith Real Estate Market! I see the opportunity for more seller’s receiving multiple offers with the appropriate guidance from a professional Realtor. For more information on how to POSITION you home, please give me a call at 479-414-1894 or email me at Ray@RayNellum.com . Remember, “To Buy or Sell’um, Call Ray Nellum!”

Fort Smith Real Estate, Southfield Heights Market Update

Ray Nellum Fort Smith Real Estate (Warnock Real Estate, LLC.) — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 00:02:20 -0600

The Fort Smith Real Estate Market has had it's fair share of ups and downs just like any market. Southfield Heights in Fort Smith has stayed relatively steady. It's important to understand. ALL MARKETS ARE NOT THE SAME. There are area's around the country and in the state that have taken a sad turn for the worse. The same can apply to different area's of town.

The average home sold in Southfield Heights over the past 6 months is $159,966. The average sold price per square foot is $91.91 and 135 average days on the market. The average day on the market is pretty consistent for the area.

So if you are selling, be patient, price it right, and your home should sell. I did say, "Price it Right" didn't I?

Below is a list of homes that are currently on the market and homes that have sold within the previous 6 months. Those familiar with Southfield Heights are aware the subdivision is less than 5 years old, and all of these homes have a 2 car garage.

Is Life Really Good??? Life IS Good!

Ray Nellum Fort Smith Real Estate (Warnock Real Estate, LLC.) — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 12:55:52 -0500

Sometimes Life just stinks! Your business is suffering. Your personal life is in the toilet. You debate whether to fill up your gas tank or feed your family. Is Life Really Good??? Yes it is!!!

Your life/business being good or bad begins with YOU! It is all how you look at it. Gas is too high! Well you could be walking 15 miles in 95 degree heat. Food prices are outrageous! You could be going to bed starving every night. The roof is leaking! You could be living on the streets. It's your outlook, perception, it's just how YOU look at it. Life is Good!

Start with you: Get up off the ground and dust the dirt off your butt. Change your attitude and begin thinking positive. Wake up and say "Life is Good" or whatever your motivational saying that exists at the very core of your soul.

Believe IT: You've got to believe the positive nourishment you're feeding your body, or else it's all null and void. It simply won't work. You can't fool yourself. If you don't believe in yourself and your own philosophy, how can you expect anyone else to? If you buy into "The Market is Horrible." You will begin to believe it and your daily actions will be reflective of a slowing market. Life is Good!
Practice IT: You've got to believe the positive nourishment you're feeding your body, or else it's all null and void. You've got to Practice at being more positive. It's not going to happen over night. Yes, you can be conditioned to be negative, and so many are. Tiger Woods is by far one of the best Golfers the world has ever seen. Yes, he practices! Do you think he goes up and thinks I can't make this shot??? Heck no!!! Life is Good!
Embrace IT: You've got to "talk the talk, and walk the walk!" Get away from the negative people, news, or anything that does not have a positive influence on your life. If someone's down, lift them up. You may need that encouragement someday. Becoming more positive will attract more positive things into your life. Smile!!! You will begin to see positive things in your life and your business. Life is Good!
Take IT home: You've spent the entire day being positive, and encouraging to everyone else. You're tired, drained, and you can't give anymore. Wrong. Take it home! Keep the most powerful of your positive vibes for your "Loved One's!" They deserve it the most. They are there for you through the good and the bad. Don't cheat them!! Chat, play, love, and laugh until your heart is filled with joy. It will be much easier to jump start tomorrow. Life is Good!

How does this apply to Real Estate? Simple, if your attitude and outlook is negative, then so will your business. If you're a seller and you don't listen to your professional and make the positive changes to make your home sell, then your home will just sit on the market. If you're a buyer and you think you'll never find the right home, or you're always looking for something wrong in a house, you won't be able to enjoy the benefits of owning your own home. Your life and perception are what you make it! Make it a positive one!

Life is good my friends!!! Now go out and live it to it's fullest. "Shoot for the moon! Because even if you miss, you are still among the STARS!!!"

LIFE IS GOOD!!!

I Cried at A Closing This Morning!!! Fort Smith Real Estate

Ray Nellum Fort Smith Real Estate (Warnock Real Estate, LLC.) — Fri, 09 May 2008 16:29:07 -0500

It was not a sad occasion at all. I've got some clients that have officially become Arkansas Razorbacks!!! This closing was far from the norm. I get a Tweet and my client tells me that they beat me to the closing office. I walk in and he's working on his laptop. Then, we go back to sign docs and it happened!!!

David Ballardhad one joke after the other!!! The closing agent could barely focus because she was laughing so hard. I had to take his Iphone from him because he kept jumping on Twitter!!! Then he said, "Hey Ray, we forgot to do a Radon test!" jokingly. I said, "This Ray done his job so sign the papers!!!" We laughed so hard, and we took up so much of the closing agents time, but it was a blast!!! I was in tears.

Here's what he put on Twitter about me: okjedi @raynellum thank for everything you're the best agent ever! Don't forget your sign about 6 hours ago from txt in reply to RayNellum

Sebastian County April Market Report.. Fort Smith Real Estate

Ray Nellum Fort Smith Real Estate (Warnock Real Estate, LLC.) — Thu, 08 May 2008 14:43:03 -0500

Fort Smith Real Estate Market has seen a gradual increase in residential sales. Sebastian County sales for the April 2008 are proof of a good market shift. I've been posting about getting out to view homes because I've seen an increase in activity in the Fort Smith Real Estate Market.

You as a buyer, can continue to wait and hope rates drop even lower, or you can make a great investment in your future to purchase a home now. The pricing of most homes on the market have been brought in line with area sales.

Many Seller's have caught on to this and are now pricing their homes to sell in a more competitive market. Sebastian County saw a 12.6% increase in units sold in April 2008 in comparison to April 2007.

Year	Bedrooms	Baths	Sq. Ft.	Avg. Sale Price	DOM	Units Sold
Apr-08	3	2	1,698	112,838	125	134
