Agawam, MA

Looking for some amusement park fun? You've come to the right place! Six Flags New England is located in Agawam, MA close to the city of Springfield. When I was in 8th grade, we took a school trip to the park that was then known as Riverside and since converted into one of the Six Flags family members. A day at Six Flags is guaranteed to have something for everyone. There are thrill rides such as the Superman and the Mind Eraser, 3 kids areas including Thomas Town and Wiggles World, a water-park and more! The park is HUGE so be sure to wear some good walking shoes. The park is open from April through Halloween in October. With a season pass you can enjoy even more fun with FREE friend passes, discounts on food and special offers. Season passes are for 2010 are for sale now and just $13 above the price of a one day pass. If you purchase a season pass now, you can enjoy the rest of the 2009 season FREE as well.

Is this the sign that you want buyers to see?

If your listing has expired with one or more REALTORS and you still want or need to sell then you need to be very careful with your next agent or the impression that the public will get is just that....STILL for sale. Long term listings can cause a property to have a stigma within the public eye, one that can keep the right buyer from even looking at the home.

So, how do you choose the right agent to take your move to the finish line? Here are a few suggestions:

*Look for the agents that are using new and non-traditional marketing. Someone with a creative use of marketing will be more likely to see something new and exciting in your home.

*Research local agents on the internet. Look at their websites, their blogs, their online presence will tell you a lot about who they are and how they work.

*Find an agent who is able to help stage (or can connect you with a stager) the property for re-marketing as part of the refresh.

*Ask the agent if they will hold a broker's open house after the home has been refreshed. The fastest way to change the perception of the home is to convince the area brokers and agents.
