Why isn’t your house on the market if you want to sell it?

Many sellers have decided to pull their homes off the market because they think they better wait out the slow market and stay in their home a little longer. I have heard this many times, they fear that they will not get what their home is worth, and negotiating too low is not something that they can afford to do. But, keeping your home off of the active real estate market here in southern New Jersey is not the right thing to do right now. Home buyers are very busy looking at homes right now, and many are frustrated because they can't find what they are looking for in Camden and Gloucester County.

It is true that house hunters are looking for a good deal, but many really cannot find the perfect property to fit their needs because of the apathetic attitude of the current real estate market. When you look at the real statistics, the market is not that bad, and buyers are willing to pay the right amount of money for a home, if in fact, it has what they are looking for! I have been showing these buyers homes that are just not right for them, and they may end up either giving up, or buying something that they can "work with."

Don't make them do that... get your home listed for sale, and help them find the perfect home for them! When they buy, you will be able to do the same... and this will help everyone down the line! Maybe we can even get the reporters to notice and start reporting the positive side of this current market.

There has never been a better time to consider buying or selling a home. There are great homes on the market, and more to come; the interest rates are pleasingly low; the first time home buyers are very much interested in buying, which helps others to move up, and so on; and the real estate agents are very eager to help! Don't miss out on this terrific spring and summer market this year!

Call a full time agent that specializes in your area... one that knows how to stage your home for it to sell for the most amount of money in the least amount of time. You want an agent who knows how much a home is worth in your neighborhood/town. One that can help you to know you are buying or selling for the right price. If you don't know any, I can do the research in our vast data base to find you one who is competitant and active to refer you to one.

So, bottom line.... you absolutely cannot sell your home if it's not listed for sale, so what are you waiting for? Get your home listed for sale and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how much the market has improved.
