I was listening to radio talk last night and heard a lawyer from LA who took a call from homeowner and gave the following advice:
Homeowner's house was now worth $320,000 - his mortgage was at $400,000. He was just laid off and was wondering if he should try and sell his home. ADVICE lawyer gave was to interview several realtors and try and see if he could list his home.
QUESTION: Lawyer indicated that when interviewing realtors --- SHOULD NOT HIRE THE REALTOR THAT SAID IT IS A "BUYERS MARKET". Said that is not TRUE -- should hire the realtor who "HONESTLY SAYS THAT PRICES WILL GO DOWN MORE.....not a buyers market....... but let's list your price at a fair market value for now so it won't be on the market for 6 months to a year!
Would love to hear comments on this advice! Marcia Leary
