wake forest nc real estate: Don't Gamble In The Wake Forest NC Real Estate Market And Become THAT House
- 01/08/10 09:25 AM
If you want to sell your home in Wake Forest NC AND you contract me as your Realtor® you can be sure that you will receive a thorough, in-depth and detailed CMA prior to suggesting your listing price. Now, what I don't understand from past sellers is their need to take all of the work that I have put into that CMA and decide to gamble in the Wake Forest NC Real Estate market. When I suggest a listing price it is based on several criteria: The CMA that I prepared for your home which takes into account the current listings … (14 comments)

wake forest nc real estate: I know Those Homes Sold For That Much...But They Were Foreclosures and My Home Isn't
- 09/11/09 02:34 AM
One thing that I always bring with me to a Listing Appointment is, of course, a CMA (Comparable Market Analysis) to show the potential sellers what is currently happening in their area. The list incorporates current ACTIVE listings, any PENDING listings in the neighborhood and recent SOLDS in the neighborhood. These last few month have show a dramatic increase in the SOLDS column of foreclosed homes. I am always faced with disheartened sellers who feel that their home is "automatically" better since it is not a foreclosure - surely it should be worth more that "those" homes. Well, please read my … (9 comments)

wake forest nc real estate: Wake Forest, NC Market Report for October 2008
- 11/21/08 12:47 AM
The number of Active Listings in Wake Forest comparing the current year to 2007 has had a minimal increase of only 2%. This lends to the stabilized Absorption Rate that we are currently seeing. See next graph.
Wake Forest is STILL under that National Trend for our Absorption Rate. We have maintained an Absorption Rate of 9 for the last 5 months. It will be interesting to see where this trend goes going into the Holiday Season. While many sellers and buyers shy away from the housing market during this time it is ironically one of the best times … (6 comments)
