staten island house for sale south shore: Financially Aggressive Buyers - 03/23/13 12:25 AM
 
Financially Aggressive Buyers
Recently I listed and sold a short sale property here in Staten Island.  Funny thing about it was that I had 4 buyers, 2 were very aggressive financially.  They kept outbidding each other, until I emailed both the same message.  Please submit your highest and best offer, we can't keep going on like this.  One of the buyers had his  own Escalation Clause without me saying anything about outbidding the other buyer.  Both were my buyers so there was never an issues with agency.
The funny thing about it was not too long ago I did a … (4 comments)

staten island house for sale south shore: How do you "Make it PINK" - 03/28/12 09:16 PM
I think by now, we have all seen the Verizon ad that Susie takes her business to the next level by "making it pink".  So, my question to you is "How do you make it pink"?
First, for me, I try to make the marketing of the property easy to find when a buyer does a search.  So, I'm all over the place.  I make the property a "Feature" on my website, kennethcolerealestate.com
I'll use my High Definition Virtual Tour of the house as in 782 Barlow Ave.
I even make a Youtube audio video as in 82 Pacific Ave, which … (2 comments)

staten island house for sale south shore: How can a Good Realtor save me money as opposed to selling by myself? - 02/15/11 11:56 AM
How can a Good Realtor save me money as opposed to selling by myself?
If you sell your own home yourself, you will not have to pay a commission but by doing that will you actually SAVE  money?
If your unit is perfect, and you are good at pricing houses, and negotiating terms and conditions, and have the time to market properly, then yes, you can save money.  So, what about the other factors that most home owners never think about?
#1-What are the possible future expansion options of your unit allowed by your town or city that could impact price?  … (7 comments)

staten island house for sale south shore: MOLD - 01/07/11 12:08 PM
Water Vapor Moisture in the air. We need it, we want it.
It can make you feel comfortable, or it can make you feel uncomfortable. Too much is bad for the house, and too little is also undesirable. So what’s a person to do? Let’s start with what we need.
Did you know that, in winter, some homes are dryer than the Sahara desert? True.
We heat the air in our homes without adding moisture, bad news for our sinuses and our furniture. Also, if the relative humidity in our homes is what it should be, between 50-60% in summer and … (1 comments)

staten island house for sale south shore: Real Estate Appraisal, what it is and what it's not. - 12/16/10 02:54 AM
We are talking about Real Estate.  Real Estate Appraisals to be precise.  Let's take a look at common mistakes appraisers could make, because your sale price could be compromised.
#1 It's an opinion;  OK, a "professional"opinion, but not the bottom line.  Banks that make loans for real estate property rely heavily on it, but it could be faulty.  You do have a right to question the report.  Don't be afraid to call the person who did the report and ask.  If you paid for the report that is.  It's your report.  No one other than the institution that is making the … (11 comments)

staten island house for sale south shore: How NOT to make friends and clients - 12/10/10 11:24 AM
An experience I had just yesterday prompted me to write two posts.  #1 was about a business, a local Locksmith who treated me like gold.  And the other was about a grocery store chain that also treats customers like they are what they really are, gold.  You can read them later.  This is about the other end of the spectrum.  Make the customer NEVER come back.
It all started when I downloaded a program that was not compatible with my system.  It crashed.  Now, I know a little about computers, and I mean a LITTLE.  So I tried to fix it.  … (9 comments)
