- 04/05/12 03:28 AM
Hassayampa Mtn Club Home For Sale, 732 Seri Prescott AZ I have been playing with video of my listings for months now, but recently decided to make the jump into high definition video. What I have found is that home buyers really appreciate being able to view high quality HD video of homes for sale. It saves them time and energy finding the best home. And since I already do 30 home previews each week, I simply pick the best deals to video with my GoPro HD2 camera.

Over the last week world markets have been gripped by a tremendous amount of fear and uncertainty. These kinds of events are very unnerving for all of us. This is especially true if you are considering a major financial commitment like a new home. It is our job as real estate professionals to help our clients understand what all of this means to a home purchase transaction. Many people assumed the downgrade to US debt would mean a rise in mortgage rates. That is not currently the case. Mortgage bonds are the source of virtually all … (0 comments)

short sale: Retire In Prescott Arizona
- 10/20/10 04:52 PM
Thinking about retiring in Prescott Arizona? My parents did the same thing 25 years ago. They searched the entire United States and parts of Canada only to pick beautiful Prescott AZ for their golden years.
Located at an elevation of 5300 feet in the mountains of central Arizona, the City of Prescott (population almost 43,000 in 2009) was the original territorial capital of the Arizona Territory. This old mining town and now popular active adult retirement community borders the Prescott National Forest to the south and west. The towns of Prescott Valley (7 miles east) and Chino Valley (16 miles north), … (2 comments)
short sale: Real Estate Agent Referrals and What They Say About People Who Use Them
- 10/17/10 10:54 AM
Real Estate Agent Referrals are the bread and butter of my business here in Prescott Arizona. After nearly a decade of business I have come to some interesting conclusions about referrals. 1. Clients who find me via referral are about twice as likely to close a transaction with me then clients who find me in other ways; sign calls, craigslist and other online property marketing etc.
When a friend or family member says "hey you should really talk to Dave about helping you find the best deal on a bank owned home", there is a level of trust that … (5 comments)
short sale: Why Its Important To Work With The Best REO Agents
- 09/27/10 10:32 AM
When you visit a new city do you ask where you can find an average Chinese restaurant? Or do you ask for the BEST Chinese restaurant in the area? If you needed heart surgery would you pick a doctor out of the yellow pages or would you ask friends who the BEST doctor for your surgery is? The point is clear: we don't look for mediocrity; we look for excellence. And in today's Prescott Arizona real estate market we can choose to work with the best. Someone who specializes in a particular niche and takes extra classes and has more experience. … (2 comments)
short sale: Why I Love Selling HUD Homes:)
- 09/10/10 09:55 AM
In Prescott Arizona, HUD or the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development sells houses. I love selling these houses for several reasons. Primarily its the lack of competition. You see, to sell a HUD home requires that your Realtor buy a special HUD Home key and learn how to navigate HUD's system. Also the brokerage must be registered with HUD. These are some relatively minor hurdles to overcome, but most Prescott AZ Realtors don't want to learn new skills. In fact I have found that a large majority of real estate professionals tend to travel the familiar path. But in … (0 comments)
short sale: When is a Short Sale a Good Deal for a Buyer?
- 07/22/10 07:50 AM
One of the things I find myself explaining frequently to buyers is "when are short sales a good idea for me?". First lets take a look at the Prescott AZ market breakdown:
Right now Bank owned or REO sales make up the lion's share at nearly half of all sales. Then retail sales come in at 42% with short sales making up only 8%. This is interesting because if you look at type of sales by listing, short sales make up between 25% to 30% of all the Yavapai County listings. So why the big discrepancy? The fact is … (0 comments)
short sale: Short Sales, Trustee Sales, and Foreclosure
- 02/16/10 03:49 AM
For the past year I have been working with a client who's property is going through the foreclosure process. And for many people this process runs in a similar pattern. First upon realizing that they can no longer make the mortgage payments they seek a short sale. A short sale package is submitted to the lender(s) and then we wait and wait and wait. Finally after three months or so, a notice of trustee's sale is issued to the borrower. This is notification that the lender is going to try to collect the debt with a sale on the courthouse steps. … (0 comments)
short sale: Short Sale Pricing
- 12/24/09 06:16 AM
There are many ways listing agents choose pricing on their short sale listings. All too often the method involves pullling a price out of nowhere. Rather than doing careful research or a broker price opinion. Certainly listing a home at below market value will get buyers looking at it, but the gap between the list price and market value still needs to be bridged for the lender to agree to the sale. One of the biggest challenges when working with buyers on a short sale is trying to convince them that the list price is not related to the market value. … (3 comments)
