Camarillo Home Sold in 3 Weeks, It Could Happen to You!!

By
Real Estate Agent with 805 County Real Estate

 

This Camarillo Home Sold in 3 Weeks!!!!! 

That is after the tenants moved out of a home that they made almost impossible to show to any interested buyers.

A few days after the tenant moved out, I posted new interior pictures of the home with its fresh coat of paint and new carpet on to Ventura County MLS.

Before Tenant Moved Out      After Tenant Moved Out

Before the week was over we received 3 Offers from 3 qualified buyers. All offers were extremely close in price, but my client decided to accept the offer that allowed us to close in 2 weeks and was an All Cash Offer!!!

We never had to lower the asking price or add any incentives to attract buyers. We just listed this 3 sold homebedroom 2 bathroom Mission Oaks home at that right price.


What is that right price? As you prepare your home for sale ask your Realtor to provide you with a Competitive Market Analysis, CMA. Study the homes that have recently sold in your area. Also, see if there are any short sales, and/or bank owned homes offered for sale in your neighborhood. If you are able, try to price your home as close or lower than what lenders have to offer home buyers. Then just sit back and watch your home sell.

Kimberly, That is a mirror believe it or not. Thank you my friend. It was hard to close an escrow (1031 Exchange) in 2 weeks. I did not have a life, but it's done and I have one satisfied client.

Teri, The home went on the market in March. From the begging I told my seller If your tenants move out I can find you a buyer in 1-2 weeks. And guess what? We did!!!!!

Mana, good job I was asked last week, what do we need to do? Paint and carpet!  That's it? Yes, nothing like a fresh coat of paint and new carpet to make it shine.

Mana... Are you on Twitter?  I'll have to go look you up so I can be a cyber stalker!  Still getting used to the silly thought that people actually consider themselves Twit's.... Makes them sound like DimWits!

Dan, Not yet. To be honest I'm afraid that once I join I'll get hooked. As it is between blogging and work I don't have enough time for my family.

Mana,

Changing out the marketing pictures on the MLS was a very wise choice.  What a difference!  Congratulations on this quick sale! Continued success!

Connie, Thank you. I am now back to having a normal life.

Michelle, Thank you very much. I felt it was necessary to change the pictures. The home just looked like a different place after the tenants moved out.
