Soooo...you think the housing market is feeling a little "under the weather" ? If you live in the frozen tundra of the north where we REALLY know how to get ready for Santa's sleigh....then you REALLY know what "under" is all about....
If you REALLY want to contribute to the recovery we know is on the way...here are some things that will speed the process...Just do or in some cases...don't do....and watch what happens !
- Price to SELL,...Not to SIT ! Realtors...if you buy into a Sellers' : "I need, I have to have, I know my house is worth, the one down the street 3 years ago sold for..." Shame on you...you contribute to the inventory on the market, a poor image of realtors....and the very worst, dashed hopes of a seller who may end up in foreclosure as the result of staying at too high a price for too long.....not a good idea.
- Short Sales....If you have not done any....have not been successful,....don't understand the required marketing strategy, timetable and huge amounts of extra effort required...refer the listing...KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ! (We can refer you to a short sale specialist anywhere in the country...call our toll free number: 877-525-0563.)
If you don't have commercial experience...Don't be fooled by the tales of exhorbitant commissions and 9-4 commercial realtor hours with no marketing dollars...those days have disappeared ...if you think that ROI and NOI are oriental appetizers....refer the listing....KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW.
Know What You DON'T KNOW... Practice What You Know..Refer What you don't know... and very soon we will all live happily ever after ! Best wishes to every realtor, lender, professional...seller and buyer....the very best times are right in front of us...outstanding interest rates...super selection and homes in the best condition they have ever been in to compete for housing dollars,...sellers to get the best price...buyers to get the best house..realtors to sell them...lenders to mortgage them...Go for it....Enjoy..."Live Long and Prosper !"
