Sellers, Now is the Time

Sellers, Now is the Time --- If you need to sell, there is no time like the present. The government tax credit is going to expire (contracts must be in place by the end of April). Buyers are now coming out in increasing numbers.

Inventory is low.

Interest rates are starting to go up (which will eventually reduce the number of qualified buyers).

In order to be able to market your property to the maximum number of buyers at this point, and get a contract that is acceptable to you into escrow, the time to list is now. We highly recommend preparing your home to be on the market no later than February 1st or as soon as possible.

We can immediately guide you through the process:

  • Preparing your house to show at its best
  • Doing the homework necessary to establish a price based on current market realities
  • We can then prepare the critical initial marketing material
  • We will provide you with continual guidance throughout the contract process

 

If you need to sell, now is the time. Please give us a call.

Hi Roy, this is the perfect time for sellers that need to sell . . . they just need good professional help to get it done right.

I am going through past clients who purchased 5 or more years ago and sending them letters with an attached brochure on the tax credit.  Hopefully I can help these people to benefit from making a move now.  Also, I am sending a news release to the local paper.  Hopefully they will print it and get this in front of more people because it seems to have fizzled out a bit!  Do you have any other ideas?

Robin those are the right things to do, however we can continue to bring the facts to people. I think we need to keep breaking down the issues into manageable pieces and help those looking for assistance. I think going through our networks as you have suggested, and creating new ones each day in an effort to reach out is also important.
