Yeah, that's right...I said it....someone HAD to say it....Right now is the absolute PERFECT time to sell your Atlanta home...IF and ONLY IF,  you can wrap your mind around one simple idea......ROLL UP!!!

If you want to sell right now, but feel like you "can't" because of "how much you have into your property," let me shed light on a few things. For one, you are not the only one in that situation, but if you NEEDED TO SELL, absolutely HAD to sell, you would sell at a loss. This is why we have so many Atlanta short sales and Atlanta foreclosures on the market right now. People HAD to sell and couldn't in time. So, IMAGINE how many other distressed sellers are out there right now that NEED to sell, but aren't at the "short sale" or "foreclosure" point yet. Now let me clarify one thing, there is nothing positive about a homeowner who is in distress. Actually, the only positive thing about a situation such as that is how much joy the seller has when someone DOES come along and buy their property-even if it is for less than they paid for it.

Back to selling your home at a loss....So, you owe more than it will sell for right now or you've upgraded more than you can get out of it which means you will probably take a loss on the sale of your Atlanta home. If you can put your ego aside and realize that that loss can so EASILY be made up on the purchase of your next home, you could find yourself in a very equitable situation in this down market. I know this concept isn't the easiest one to comprehend, but if you bear with me for just a few more minutes I think you'll see my point.

I frequently work in the Dunwoody/Sandy Springs area and a lot of my sellers are moving to next phase of their life---Buckhead homes. So, they purchased a Dunwoody home in 2005 for $630,000 and right now things in their neighborhood are selling for around $530,000. Yes, I do understand how much that hurts and I sympathize with your situation-it's quite common today.

Now let's look at the upside...If you were to sell at $530,000, you would be taking a $100,000 loss give or take. All you need to do is find an experienced buyer's broker to help you find AT LEAST that good of a deal on your next home-and believe me, THERE ARE SO MANY GOOD DEALS OUT THERE RIGHT NOW.

You now purchase a $750,000 Buckhead home that's valued for over $940,000 and you just profited $190,000 immediate equity minus your loss of $100,000 and you are sitting with $90,000 in a bear market!!!

Sounds crazy??? It's not. It's happening EVERYDAY!!!  When will the market turn around?? When will my home generate massive equity?? These are questions only time can answer. But, one thing right now is for sure......Atlanta is an end-user town. There are over 5.3 million residents that live in this city. We have hundreds upon hundreds of the TOP global IT companies, major headquarters, National attractions, and I mean we are the Capital of Georgia. Equity WILL return and those who can get in on this buying opportunity, EVEN IF IT MEANS TAKING A LOSS ON THE SELLING SIDE, will reap the benefits.

Millionaires are made during recessions...If you want to become one of them, call me so we can sell your Atlanta house FAST and get you in your next CASH MACHINE while we are in this pivotal buying AND selling time!!!
