lise howe group advice for sellers: Don't Listen to the News to Find Out What Is Going on With Real Estate
- 12/30/22 07:47 PM
If you’re thinking about buying or selling a home, you probably want to know what’s really happening with home prices, mortgage rates, housing supply, and future demand. That’s not an easy task considering how sensationalized headlines are today. After all, it is hard to figure out what is going on with regard to nearly any topic from sports to politics to even the weather. Every news channel has its own view and own message - and each seems to conflict with the next one. Why should the news about the real estate market be any different?

- 01/13/19 06:43 AM
Family rooms can be one of the most fun and busiest rooms in a household. It’s where everyone gathers to play games, make arts and crafts, watch television, listen to music and play with toys. It’s also the type of place that accumulates a lot of stuff, and if you’re selling a home and haven’t cleared out the family room, it’s time to get going.

- 04/27/18 07:48 PM
ALL ABOUT WYNGATE
Wyngate home values have changed rapidly recently. For years, builders have eyed the ramblers, Cape Cods and small colonials in this neighborhood on the north side of Bethesda, where prices haven’t soared as high as they have in other parts of town. One by one, these modest, aging homes are being torn down and replaced by much bigger four- and five-bedroom homes that maximize the lot size—and double the price. Families can still get an older home for less than $700,000, but you also have the larger new homes. In fact, many of the buyers of the new homes are Wyngate … (7 comments)

Don't make the mistake of overpricing your property when you go to market. You really only have a very small window of perhaps a week to get a full priced and clean offer so why would you put your listing outside its sweet spot.
Sellers have lots of reasons.
You are hoping that someone will buy your home on an impulse. But how likely is that when you have fewer buyers looking at your home to begin with because it is in the wrong price range? It doesn’t happen! Instead, you make the other homes on the market look better to … (16 comments)
