powder springs: So how's the market?
- 07/30/07 02:39 PM
We get that question all time. I got asked again today and I have to say our market here in Powder Springs, Marietta, West Cobb county is pretty good. I know it's good compared to other areas of the country. Yes, our inventory has grown from last year. It's up about 20% to an 8 month supply of homes.

All in all it's nothing like (12 comments)

Since FLowering Dogwood is is sold I just have that domain point (3 comments)

powder springs: Why hasn't my home sold?
- 07/20/07 03:40 PM
Whether I am talking with a FSBO, expired listing, or a new listing prospect I always make this same point. There are only 3 reasons that a home does or does not sell.

powder springs: Neighbors of mine went For Sale By Owner
- 07/20/07 08:49 AM
I don't want to say that they are close friends but they decided to sell their house by owner. They live in my neighborhood so they are really just neighbors. So, their house has been sitting on the market for several months. They called me to tell me that someone was coming by to give them a contract and wanted my advice. I don't mind giving it, because if they can sell it on their own - more power to them. I will be helping them buy a new home. Anyway, this guy comes over with an offer on an old (7 comments)
