home selling tips: Short Sales Are Seldom If Ever Short - 02/07/15 10:09 PM

So, if the roof leaks, the microwave blew up and the carpet is stained, they're your responsibility. Buyers need to consider the cost of making repairs to the home. Typically, these repairs include new paint, new carpet or flooring, drywall repair, and other standard maintenance items. You must … (10 comments)

One thing that we have plenty of in our neck of the woods are expired listings. Many years ago I did some training with the great Floyd Wickman. 
In fact I wrote him a note saying that I heard it said: When the student is ready the teacher will come... I asked him what took him so long.  I thought he was great 28 years ago I still think he is the greatest.
 
At any rate he did a session on Expired Listings and how  a Property Saleability Checklist would help agents close for a listing appointment and … (20 comments)

home selling tips: Why don't they at least make an offer - 06/15/13 05:57 AM
 
     
 
 Homeowner: “Why don’t they at least make an offer”
Agent: “Mr. Seller people don’t make an offer on a property unless it meets their requirements. When they look at a house for $499,000.00 they want the amenities that a house in that price range offers.  The comps show that your home does not offer those amenities and therefore it is not what they want and that’s why they don’t make an offer.  Would you like to review the amenities that homes recently sold for $499,000.00 offered?”
Beth's explanation:  Now… to get this straight imagine that you have … (6 comments)
