I started a blog last night called "What do you do next?". It was supposed to be more for people that don't know if they should continue to market their home or if they should test out the rental market. Anyway, before I knew it I was on a tangent about short sale candidates.
This morning I wanted to reproach the subject of options. As a seller in a market with more than 57,000 listings you need to have options. Do you sell, sit on, or lease the property. The answer is different for every seller. Several of the conditions rely on: how much equity do you have in the property? If you have plenty of equity your choices are much easier. If you don't have much equity...what do you do? What sign do you put in front of the home?
If your only option is to sell your home then make sure to take every step to market your home to SELL. Don't bother testing the market because the market is declining still and you will end up losing. Make your home the nicest and the best priced home in the area. What do you look for in an agent?
If you are interested in putting your best foot forward and learning how to market your home to sell give JG Realty, llc a call and watch the results.
If you have been trying to sell and situations are such that you can't afford your monthly mortgage maybe you need to consider renting your home. If you do decide to rent make sure you hire a property management company that will protect your ASSetts (again we can help manage your property). If you're not sure what to rent your home for that's what we're for. We will let you know what the market will bear in your area.

Rob,
It sounds like to you have put together an impressive value proposition for sellers in your marketplace, This is the type of thing i always tell brokers to do in order to be competitive and create a point of difference you need to be able to communicate an intriguing value proposition to potential clients.
Good Work!
Andy Rooney summed it up pretty good last week when sent a book on 1001 Ways to Sell Your Home and his response was, "there's really only one way, lower your price!"
