real estate: 10 Ways to Sell Your House During a Recession - 04/15/10 02:42 AM
Here are 10 sure fired ways to sell your house during a recession:
1. Acquire the documents that are required to legally sell your house, such as a legal sales contract for your state, a certificate for inspection of your septic tank, if you are not on a city sewer system, and a home inspection to assure your buyers that your home has been inspected for any defects.

real estate: Things Improve… Across the Pond - 02/08/10 05:36 AM

Some non-local world news:  China’s real estate boom continues.  3Q profits of the major players all reported a large incraese in profit.
Some analysts think the 4 BRIC nations (emerging markets of Brazil, Russia, India, and China) will lead the global economic recover.  Maybe the real estate markets will follow a similar pattern.  Maybe we’ll see recovery there first before US/Europe.

If your thinking about selling that Tallahassee home but know the Tallahassee real estate market is just too low then why not start preparing your house now?
The order of things:

real estate: The American Dream is a Safe Bet - 10/20/09 01:16 AM

It’s a hard statement to swallow for all the Americans currently paying more on their mortgage than their home is worth.  But longterm it makes sense.
At the worst, real estate home prices will remain stagnant for five years.  That makes some panic.  However, buyers looking for security, a place to raise their family, a place to call their own should be looking at staying in a home longer than 5 years.
On the other side of the coin we have sellers.  Sure, there may not be as much ‘easy money’ in doing weekly ‘flips’ (remember all those TV shows that emerged … (0 comments)

real estate: Words from Zillow Co Founder Lloyd Frink - 10/06/09 02:27 AM

Here's an excerpt (with link to entire letter) from an open letter by Lloyd Frink, President of Zillow:
For Tech-Savvy Consumers, Real Estate Agents are Still the Experts
Despite the number of websites that now offer consumers never-ending information, traditionally only available through agents, most consumers still-and should-prefer to bring in a professional if they're serious about transacting.
Back?  Me again.  The main takeaway for me was that an informed consumer is easier to help.  For those scared that they'll no longer need your service, remember:  you're a trained and qualified professional who has been working in the sector for … (2 comments)
