Work with the best - we're #1! OR Listed at $619,00 last month and SOLD in 9 days! Seller overjoyed! Who's next?! Which of these messages (if either) do you prefer and why?

CONGRATULATIONS! Now you have the listing contract signed with the Seller for a saleable listing...what's next? What do you need to do to get your new listing "ready for showtime"?

As part of the research I've been doing in blogging for SEO "organic" results for my "home market" of Verrado I recently checked a number of sites that rank high for the same search phrases I've been testing. I was surprised to see some of them had up to 54 instances of the word Verrado on the same page! Notable, repetitive phrases present included the following for your edification and enjoyment! One might think that there were more repetitions of the word Verrado than there were words in between to make some kind of sense of the whole morass! Buckeye real estate … (10 comments)

sell: Why you should use a REALTOR to purchase new construction in Verrado
- 03/30/07 11:15 AM
Why should you use a REALTOR to purchase new construction in Verrado? Purchasing a new home in Verrado is an exciting experience for the Buyer. The purchase process for a new home in Verrado is significantly different than purchasing Verrado homes on the resale market. Each builder at Verrado has their own contract, which they REQUIRE Buyers to use, or they won't sell to them. Even if you have previously purchased real estate in Arizona, for example a home in the Phoenix area, even if it has been new construction, it's highly likely that the contract you'll be asked to sign is a document … (9 comments)

- 03/16/07 03:26 PM
Verrado, an award winning Master Planned Community in Buckeye is like any other residential real estate in Arizona, subject to the laws and regulations of the Arizona Department of Real Estate. One notable difference is the absence of For Sale signs or For Rent signs in the yard of any home in Verrado. The developer, DMB Associates, Inc., has done the same here as they did in DC Ranch, which is to impose very strict CC&Rs on the development, while at the same time opening Verrado Realty to handle the initial sale of custom lots, as well as being the only real estate brokerage with … (7 comments)

Conventional wisdom says that the holiday season is the worst time to try to sell (or buy) a home. Conventional wisdom is wrong in the case of real estate. While home sales usually slow down from November until January, they certainly do not stop. During this period it is not at all unusual for a half-million homes to be sold nationwide. Who buys homes during this period? Buyers, not lookers! These buyers tend to be without children and looking to "move up". This is especially good news for sellers of high-end market … (8 comments)
