georgia: Why are we enemies ???
- 01/15/10 01:53 AM
Isn't it amazing that in the negotiation process one party decides to take on the posture of being in battle? During these days, when a buyer comes along to make an offer, they are your friend. "But they are making such a low offer on my home!", you may say. First, as difficult as it may seem. This property you are offering will one day not be your "home". Do all you can to make it as if it will be the buyer's "home". Second, start with a good introduction. Your negotiations whether as a buyer or seller may come down … (3 comments)
georgia: No more "sissy" rides!

- 02/27/08 02:02 AM
The Georgia Association of REALTORS has honored my Father, H. Ray Williams acknowledging 40 years as a REALTOR.

georgia: Auctions, the alternative to waiting on the sale
- 02/26/08 12:50 PM
It's as old as dirt and Auctions are here to stay. Real Estate Auctions have been around for centuries and today they are being used to bring value to our market. Recently, driving down a busy corridor I saw an arrow sign promoting $100,000 discounts on new homes. Then making my way to the office an agent told me of a builder who planned to give his houses back to the bank. That afternoon I reviewed my "Short Sale" training. Once again, I was hit with the answer, an auction. Think of the benefits provided to the seller: No Inspection Contingency No … (0 comments)
