A reader emailed me last week and asked, “I live on a very quiet, very exclusive court and I’m wondering how much this is worth.”
I’m not sure I can put an exact dollar value to it, but the subject warrants a discussion…
I figured this would be a timely follow-up to Wednesday’s top-ten list, as I’m starting to realize that more people know about the what when it comes to staging, but not as much the why.
But if everybody is doing it, then it must be working, right?
Comparables, or “comps” as we call them in the biz, are properties similar to the subject property that can be used to determine the subject property’s value.
In my experience, choosing the right comparables is half the battle…
This is the most ridiculous listing “strategy” I’ve seen in a long time, and as a buyer or a buyer’s agent – I would NEVER get involved.
These people have been playing pricing games for months, and when all else fails (and it has), they’ve listed the property at one dollar…
On Tuesday afternoon, I drove through my old stomping grounds in Park City, Utah and saw what has become of the city I last visited in 2001.
The real estate market boomed, then crashed, and now they’re still left sifting through the rubble…
Yes, I’m in Idaho, but I’m still checking new listings on MLS multiple times per day!
On Tuesday morning, I found this listing for a home owned by the Toronto Community Housing Corporation…
I’ve seen a few instances of moving the offer date lately, and I think it has just as good a chance of backfiring as it does improving the seller’s chances of top dollar.
So why would a seller or listing agent move the offer date?
Any more hits and you could call me the Hitman! Ugh that was cheesy…
But was there ever a cooler wrestler than Bret The Hitman Hart? Real men are confident enough to wear pink…
