What makes real estate different from any other product? Hint: It’s the location!

Yes Sir,

Location Location Location.

Thanks for the post.

Good luck in your area.

It's location every time. I've seen some beautiful houses ... too close to the freeway, too close to a school, too close to a commercial area, too this or too that. Newnan sounds like a wonderful place to live.

Hi Richard,

What a colorful picture of your down town.

Location involves many things. The insides and the outsides.

Isn't that the truth...I have some buyers who were so focused on price, they were heading into "less than ideal resale areas" shall I say?  There is so much more than price!

Yes that is right Richard... you can have that beautiful home on that large lot paid for in cash from the sell of your previous home. But if the city has a pig rendering plant up wind from your new home....you ain't going to be a happy camper.

Check the location out first!

Richard...I love the looks of your Downtown Newnan, It's similar to Downtown Harriman but I do think your area is more renovated than mine.  We're working now on a revitalization of the Downtown area. I can't wait to see what all unfolds!

Richard...Location is the key, but one person's locationis not the ideal for another.

I think timing timing timing is a close second to the 3 L's too. The buyers loves the location but can not get a bridge loan, not carry two places. It's all about timing for him if he is your buyer. He is not ready to buy that great location. The seller would sell if they could find an affordable one floor rancher in this (circling sound with very odorous magic marker making your head woozy) region, but one he wants is not on the market yet. Timing again a factor, and it's off. Or it works perfect for everyone that does not have the option of being more flexible when all the real estate planets line up.  Great post Richard!

Hey, Richard!  I included this post in Last Week's Favorites.

We get pounded with location, location, location. But you are right. There really is much more to the story.
