(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) If over 80% of all buyers are shopping on the web, then as real estate professionals we need to be there first.

realtor bethesda: Problem #5: Not Considering All the Factors
- 11/14/07 02:14 PM
(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) When a buyer looks at a home, they look at all the factors: foreclosures, distressed sales, bankruptcies, divorces, and area market fluctuations. All too often sellers mistake the appraisal value of their home as what a diligent buyer would pay. An appraisal is an opinion of value for an entirely different purpose than selling your home - often to provide a bank information to fund a loan. If a lender is motivated to loan you money, his appraisal may come in higher than the true market value of your property. The appraiser might ignore other issues in his … (2 comments)
realtor bethesda: Problem #4: Limiting the Access and Exposure Your Home Has
- 11/14/07 01:33 PM
(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) Some of the traditional advertising tools agents have used are print ads and open houses. In truth, print ads bring little to no activity to the home and less than 1% of houses ever sell at an open house. Agents use open houses to attract buying prospects, not to sell your home, although the more buyer prospects I have as an agent the better I am able to market directly to them. Knowing that 3-4 buyers are looking right in one area for a certain home means I can match them up when listings come up that meet their … (0 comments)
realtor bethesda: Problem #3: Not Making the Right Home Improvements
- 11/14/07 01:32 PM
(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) If you make the right improvements often it will help your home stand out from the crowd and become that #1,2 or 3 home on the buyer's list. If they can get the feeling of space, newness, light, privacy or security the emotional desires are met and the buyer has an instant feeling of "home." Very simple and inexpensive improvements can provide an improved emotional response in a potential buyer. The improvements we are talking about are not the major renovations but the minor changes that can add great value and help the house show better. There is something … (2 comments)
realtor bethesda: Problem #2: Pricing Your Home Incorrectly
- 11/14/07 12:50 PM
(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) Everyone wants to realize as much money as possible when selling their home. It's a completely natural inclination to price the home high, thinking you can always come down in the future. The old "let's just try it at this price to see what the market will do." The fear of leaving money on the table overwhelms the desire to make an actual profit. But the beauty of the market is it corrects for under pricing with quick or multiple offers. The correction for overpricing follows... A listing price that is too high frequently nets the seller even less … (0 comments)
realtor bethesda: How to Sell Your Home for the Most Money the Market Will Pay!
- 11/14/07 12:49 PM
(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) The decision to sell your home can involve any number of stresses. So many of today's sellers are motivated by circumstances outside their control: foreclosure, job change, job relocation, health issues, financial changes, divorce, death. Other sellers need to move because their families have grown or they need different school systems or it's just time to downsize to something easier to maintain. Whether you've lived in your home for one year or for a lifetime, it's not just a roof over your heads but it's really a central core where memories were created and where dreams were either … (3 comments)
realtor bethesda: Nothin' But Net...
- 11/13/07 12:31 PM
(Bethesda Real Estate) The net sheet is really the crux of the whole transaction. I've developed this handy spreadsheet that serves not only our purposes at the beginning of the process but for understanding how an offer price will affect the bottom line. There are so many numbers to track but really in the end the number in the red circle is what we generally care about! What I find is that when clients focus there instead of on individual costs they really make better overall decisions. In Montgomery County, we generally split the transfer taxes between buyer and seller since this can … (3 comments)
