Getting the most money for your home ~by Cidalia Matukas ~ www.homesbyci...



There are three factord that impeact the sale - ability of a home. Location, condition and price. We can control two. Condition _ you always wany your home to be in showcase consitiond. It will be uncomfortable but homes sell when they are perfect and look like a Jordan's show room. There will be another video on this topic soon. Today let us focus on pricing and getting you the most money possible. When you speak to your rRealtor make sure that they have a strong sense of what the market is doing in your town or city. The Realtor should then be able to explain to you and analyze the numbers. Ultimately, they should be able to tell you where the Gaps in the market are and how you can price your home to create 7-10 showings in 7-10 days and multiple offers in 30. If you would like more information on this top, have questions, concerns or are thinking of selling please call or email me. I would be happy to help.

Who is going to buy your home?



Who is going to buy your home?
From: CidaliaMatukas | November 16, 2010 | 0 views

One of the first things I do when I take a listing is discover who the potential buyer will be. Why you may ask ? This allows me to target my marketing and my lead generation and create ofers and results for my sellers.
Keller Williams recently conducted a study that helps me discover the demograohics of the buyers in this market. AS we would expect, the largest buyer pool are first time buyers. 46% of these buyers are married. With single females compsoing 21% of buyers. Most buyers have 2 pople in their household with a median age of 28. The average home they are looking to buy is a 1600 square foot home with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. So, if you or anyone you know has a home that fits this criteria and are thinking of selling please call me.

5 Economic Indicators Every Seller Should Know ~ By Cidalia Matukas ~ ww...



There are 5 economic indicators that every agent should share with their sellers.

1. Home Sales are on the Rise. ~ This is a sign of stabilization. This is variable from town to town. If you are curious about your hometown please let me know I would be happy to share that information with you.

2. Drop in Median Home Price. ~ there are three reasons why this has occurred. Surge in sales of distressed properties that sell for 15-20% less. Influx of first time buyers purchasing lower priced homes. Slow down in the high end market and jumbo loans.

3. Market Inventory is low. This is variable from town to town as well.

4. Mortgage rates are at their lowest.

5. Homes are more Affordable now than ever before. In 1981 it took 36% of a families income to pay the mortgage. Now it only takes 15%.
