I spent 8 hours yesterday showing homes for sale in Cumming Ga. The inventory has grown, but with the number of homes for sale, I had a hard time finding a home that was in excellent showing condition and priced right. In the 350-400K price range there are a lot of vacant homes for sale - when a home is vacant is makes the home feel very cold and abandoned. Some of the homes I showed were in the Fieldstone Enclave and have been on the markets for 2-3 months with no price decreases. My buyer will probablly end up buying a new home in Cumming - here is my advice for Selling a home:
1. How motivated is the Seller? - if the Seller needs to sell the home then price the home to sell. Where does your agent think you should price your home? If the homes sits on the market at the same price for a month - the market is saying your home is overpriced - this is key.
2. Prepare the home for Sale - ask your agent for opinions about showing the home. Us the "Dress Your House for Success" program to prepare it for Sale.
3. Become a featured Home on Realtor.com and advertise on Yahoo, MSN, Google and other websites.
4. Us the talking house technology - this is a private radio transmitter that plays a 5 minute loop about the features of your home - highlight your homes best selling features and when people slow down in front of your home they see a sign that says "STOP turn your radio to 1610 a.m." and they hear about the inside of your home. This really works well.
There are Buyers who want to buy homes right now in Cumming Ga - as long as your home is priced well, in excellent showing conidtion and marketed well - it will sell
