This week...this month in retrospect...

What a fabulous month July has been. Median home prices have increased and average market time decreased. Promising news as we continue into the 2009 selling season.

During a recent Sellers Consultation here are some pointers I suggested:

• Have a pre-inspection. Find problems and fix them BEFORE listing the home for sale.
• Consider a professional home stager. Statistics show homes sell significantly faster when staged.
• Hire a professional cleaner. Clean sells and it's cost effective in the long run.
• Price right. This is the biggie. The first 2 weeks are imperative. Price right and reduce as needed!
