53 Rye Ln | Larkspur | Shamong | Burlington County | New Jersey | Home for Sale - Success

I know that I've been talking a lot about all of the good news out there in the housing market, and I just wanted to take a minute to thank all of my clients, and the people like them that are making this recovery happen. I think one of the best examples of this recently were my clients at 53 Rye Lane in Shamong. They listed their house with me a little over a month ago, and it was under contract within 30 days. Now there home is in an area where several other homes have sat on the market for months, and in some cases years.

I'd like to tell you that this quick sale was all due to my innovative marketing methods and my incredible negotiation skills, but those weren't the only factor's involved in finding a buyer so quickly. I believe that the most important factor was my clients willingness to price their home realistically for the market. Notice I didn't say give their home away, I said price it realistically. After looking at the few comps that were in the area, we figured out an approximate value for the home, and then priced it very close to that value. When I suggest this method of pricing to many clients, they are afraid to do this thinking that they will only get low-ball offers, but these clients were savvy sellers and understood that maximum traffic leads to the highest sale price. Now we did receive one low-ball offer, but with a little negotiation, that offer turned into a very close to full price offer.

It's realistic sellers like my clients here that are creating the environment for the housing recovery. If you are interested in learning where you should price your home in today's market, give me a call.
