Check out my new video trailor... - 09/23/11 11:49 AM
I LOVE this.  i just made this clip with the help of my Lyon Fair Oaks Office, for use at the end of my seller-oriented videos.
 
Get Listed... Get an Offer... Get Moving is our company slogan which is plastered on billboards all over town. I thought I would make use of that and the fact that our office is so teamwork oriented.  We all truly help each other with our businesses, and have a culture of support.
It's super short... What do you think?

Smart Sellers Appreciate their Realtors... - 09/21/11 03:28 PM
A tale of two sales.  Both homes listed after advise, tweaking, repairs, decluttering, late night spent on pricing strategy and market analysis.
Seller #1 after accepting an offer within one week.  "Wow, I'm an easy one for you.  You barely had to do anything to earn your commission."  Hmmm think I. He wants me to reduce my commission, I bet.
Seller #2 after accepting one of two offers within one week on the market. "Wow - you were worth every penny. No one can believe we sold so quickly.  And for full price! You really know your stuff!"
I asked him … (3 comments)

How to Sell Your Home - Three Critical Factors - 09/16/11 09:22 PM
Everyone knows the three most important factors in real estate... LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION.  But when you sell your home, there are three factors that are even more important.
No don't scream at me.  Location IS important. But once you own a home, you can't change the location.  Or the floorplan.  Or the direction if faces on the street.  Or interest rates.  Or whether there are buyers looking.
Nope... you can't change any of those.  But there are three factors you DO have control of, and that's where you need to focus your attention.
 
 
Price, condition, and marketing.  These factors … (18 comments)

Should a Seller disclose EVERYTHING? Not always! - 09/11/11 10:55 AM
Should a Seller disclose EVERYTHING? I used to think so, until I listed CW's* home. "I can't fill out the Transfer Disclosure Statement", she said. "If I do no one will buy this home".
"REALLY??"  I'm thinking mold in the attic and a dead body in the backyard.
"So, what's wrong with it?"
"Well, we get turkeys jumping on our roof... TURKEYS! They're terrible. And planes fly overhead.  I've even seen helicopters."
"Really", I say. "What else".
"The neighbors.  They are terrible.  I hate them".
"Uh hmm... What else".
"I've seen termites fly out of the ground before... behind our … (97 comments)

The Neighborhoods of Fair Oaks - Video Tour by Realtor Sally Dunbar - 09/05/11 09:26 AM

Is the market turning? Or am I a blind guy describing an elephant? - 09/02/11 10:49 AM
I have always felt that as soon as people gain confidence in the economy, and jobs start becoming available, our housing prices will begin to rise.
Today the paper said the US economy is heating up. Hmmm... maybe it's happening.
In trying to figure this out, I feel like one of the blind guys describing the elephant.  "Long and tubular with a hole in the middle." "Oh no, very flat and thin." "No, you are both wrong... it's big and round and flat on the bottom. and wrinkly." No view tells it all.
But here is MY view of this elephant … (12 comments)
