scottsdale: "On the Fifth Green" is not a subdivision..... - 10/29/18 05:58 PM
 
Sellers, your listing agent may be costing you viewings of your home and potential buyers by being TOO specific, or too cute in their description of your home on the multiple listing service.
My subject line is an actual entry for the "Subdivsion" category on a home I showed last week to some potential buyers.  And it's not the first time I've come across subdivision entries that are incorrect.  Listing agents often hurt their clients inadvertantly by incorrectly labeling the subdivision in which the home is located.
We have a community in Surprise, AZ called "Sun Village".  It's an active adult community.  Within … (11 comments)

scottsdale: Is 12% worth avoiding a Realtor? - 10/20/18 02:37 PM
  
Over the past year companies like Open Door and OfferPad have made some inroads into the Phoenix real estate market. Small inroads (about 3% of total sales valley wide over the past year), but inroads nonetheless.
For those not familiar with Open Door and OfferPad, they are companies that promise to buy your home for "market price" and close within days, alleviating the stress and hassle of selling your home.  In turn, they then make any repairs/updates necessary and then list the home for sale themselves.
But here's the catch, the "fee" they charge to purchase your home ranges anywhere from 6-12% of … (2 comments)
