Here are some secret home selling tips to make your home  attractive to a buyer.

You should pay attention to certain steps to help you sell it at  the highest potential your house will sell for.
Being just familiar with the market to price your home does not cut it anymore. 

The Internet has created more sophisticated buyers out there and they are very intelligent to the buying process.

Price is only a portion of what influences your home to sell.
Plan some strategy with your Real Estate Agent as to how to advertise and promote your home to sell.

As an example, 
A big misconception is when someone boasts that their home SOLD on the very first day.
A savvy real estate agent knows that when a home sells in one day..

It was under-priced!

There is no way anyone can achieve the full  potential of a marketing strategy ..to sell a home ...in one single day.

Selling a home is easy...at any price.
Selling a home for the highest potential of value is an art form.

You need to  consult with a listing specialist to assure yourself the recovery of 100% of equity from your home.

You deserved and are entitle to receive it...

When Bad Neighbors Hurt Your Home's Sale

When Bad Neighbors Hurt Your Home's Sale


This post was inspired while  speaking to a potential seller who stated .. .
"We are considering selling and getting away from here because of a bad neighbor"

After more than 20 years in real estate, this was not a surprise for me, but I reflected on this particular homeowner. ..
What an awful position to be in. .
You are moving your whole family, selling your home . .just because a neighbor?

As you know, pricing and condition are key factors in selling any  home, but there’s one  factor that could influence a buyer’s decision and trump all others. .
Your neighbors!

When buyers come looking to your home for sale, 
They are not just looking at your home but the whole neighborhood as well. .

Then how do you sell a home when bad neighbors create a bad impression when selling your home? 

This is the time where homeowners appreciate HOA's 
If you have an HOA, you may want to enlist and tackle the problem with their help. .remain anonymous if possible

There are also  likely ordinances in place from city ordinances  that require lawns to be reasonably maintained, failure to do so can result in fines, which is usually enough to persuade some homeowner to take better care of the property.

Dealing with bad neighbors can be annoying, but it could cost you money if you are selling your home
A tactful plan of attack using a good listing agent is very important here
Because of a bad neighbor, you should not have to sacrifice the value of your home. 

Watch the video for more tips and focus on successfully selling your home with the right person representing you.

Selling Homes. .. (The Logical Way)

Selling Homes. .. (The Logical Way)

If you know about real estate, you've most likely heard the term already
"Location, Location, Location"

This is a little too disingenuous for some people and it distracts them from the actual true 
In reality, location is only one factor.. 
Condition and price are just as important.
The actual order of these three are in my opinion as follows.. .

"Price, Location, Condition"

Location may indirectly affect the price of your home but the price always affects directly the selling of any house.
as condition remain a distant objective that can be solved when time passes and more money is invested.

You may have the best location, a penthouse in the middle of Washington DC overlooking the Washington Monument .. 
The wrong price trumps and stales  this property no matter how superbly is located.
You may have a rowhouse in Baltimore around  bad neighborhoods...and crime all around 
The right price will sell it every time! (no matter the location) 
Price moves houses
Price determines the market 
The buyers  acceptance of price determines the actual value of your home

PRICE- LOCATION -CONDITION

 If you are seller. .you should write this down


A home inside a bad location will  sell if the price is right 
A home in bad condition will sell if the price is right

A home with the wrong price
 will not sell until its corrected!

PRICE is what sells a house! 
not LOCATION..nor CONDITION

Life goes on and listings sit unsold, 
Many blame their agents .. but the blame should be is mostly on the seller's side 

There is no hope when you are selling a house for several thousands of dollars. .
Is a major purchase and  buyers will not overlook a seller's greed when they are obviously 
overpriced...They know you are overpriced and their rejection is very clear

Not your agent
Not your flyer 
Not the marketing. .
Not your sign

it's the price...as simple as it sounds

Buyers will overlook burgundy tile and flower wallpaper in the bathroom
Buyers will overlook 70's wood paneling in your basement
Buyers will overlook the water stain on the ceiling under the top floor bathroom. .
But. . I can assure. .
Buyers will not overlook when you overprice your home!
Your home will become stale. .
with  no showings anymore
You see. .

Don't put blame on the number of open houses. .or the lack of
Don't put blame on an agent that was just trying to please you.
Is not about home much you need to net. .
or 
How much money you need to  retire to Florida. .

It's about the price.
nothing else. .

    Is simple and to the point:
    "Is that your final and best price?"
    You must say this at the instant you receive their estimate
    And don't say another word. .count to five slowly or 
    Let them speak once. .and then say.
    Thank you for your time and I promise to let you know of my  decision  after I receive the 'OTHER" bids. .please let me know if you want to make some adjustments to your estimate. .
    Don't ever make it appear, that you are only calling one repairman.
    Get multiple bids whenever it's practical. . .Make sure they know they are competing with someone else. 

    Don't act like a friend or a distant relative. .be polite and leave it at that.
    Check them out. .
    Don't just hire them by appearances  or price
    Check them out or risk consequences beyond a shoddy job!
