Home Pricing to Sell
Friday, August 28th, 2009 at 4:07pm. 960 Views, 3 Comments.
In today’s real estate market buyers have a lot of choices. When selling your home, attractive pricing and perception are arguably the two core essentials, and making a distinction between your home and the dozens of others for sale is the key. Where pricing is concerned, establishing the asking price is part skill and part “gut check”, and there are several things you should consider before establishing the asking price:
Study past sales. This is the starting point for any thoughtful and successful pricing strategy; think of it as the "skill" part. Take the time to study past sale statistics for homes in your area and areas similar to yours. None will be identical, of course, but having a clear understanding of true market value is the first step in…
Turn Those Red Flags To Green Dollars
Thursday, August 27th, 2009 at 12:35pm. 563 Views, 0 Comments.
When selling a home, two situations may occur which are red flag indicators of a lengthy sale time. Each requires the property owners' attention in cooperation with their sales agent, and involves either the price or condition of the home.
The first involves a home that has been on the market for 60-90 days, but has been shown only once or twice. More buyers are beginning to enter today's real estate market, and homes for sale should be attracting a number of prospects.
When buyers choose not to tour a home, the reason is often the price. Homes that are attractive, but not being shown, are often priced “above” the market. The key to increased showings, then, is to learn the market price of the home, then reset the price.
The second “red flag” occurs…
How To Buy A Short Sale
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009 at 9:58am. 527 Views, 0 Comments.
A short sale is different from a foreclosure. When a foreclosure occurs the lender has taken title of the property and sells it directly. On the other hand, during a short sale the homeowner can avoid foreclosure by working with the lender and selling the property for less than what is owed on the loan. The homeowner's incentive to do this is to avoid foreclosure, and the lender's incentive is to mitigate its loss so it does not have to take title to a home and then manage it until sold.
Short Sales can offer a good opportunity for the right buyer. Things to consider include:
- Understanding the Process. Even after you come to agreement with the seller to buy a short-sale property, the seller’s lender has to approve the sale before you can close. Lender…
What is a Short Sale?
Friday, June 5th, 2009 at 12:53am. 567 Views, 0 Comments.
A "short sale" is terminology used in the real estate business to refer to a bank that forgives a large part of the entire balance due on a property and, instead, accepts a reduced amount to sale it. The bank can either report the transaction as 'settled for less than total balance' or 'fully paid' to the credit bureau. A short sale will not necessarily be adverse to you and, in some cases, will help your credit ratings because you are avoiding foreclosure. All parties typically stand to win. Real estate agents who facilitate the sale collect their commission, home owners avoid foreclosure and can sell the property, and the bank gets back most of their money and does not hassle with managing a property.
Why Do Banks Short Sale?
Rather than getting back the…
