Hi y'all ---

Just had to pass along this little ditty to all my friends and family. You know who you are...

Did you know that your kids can bowl free all summer long at AMF bowling centers?

No? Didn't know that?

Well...now you do!

Just go to KIDSBOWLFREE.COM and sign your child(ren) up. I did it for my two girls and they've been enjoying bowling since the beginning of May.

The program goes throughout the summer ('til early September) and it's for children 15 and under. There is the option for a family pass (I'm guessing this is how they make money off this deal...) where parents (grandparents, sitters...) can join in the fun as well. It's quite a deal at $24. You don't have to purchase this to take advantage of the 'kids bowl free' option, though.

I've really enjoyed bowling with my girls. I'm imagining those pins are annoying buyers; the kind that want to see all 54 of the hits off the MLS.

This weekend.

Great stress-reliever. I'm averaging nearly 200. BaHa...

Did I mention it was for the entire summer?

Go on over to the site, find a center near you, and sign up, y'all.

Bye for now,

Lanette in Bel Air

Selling Your Overpriced Home: It Ain't For the Faint of Heart

Selling your home in today's marketplace is hard. Selling your overpriced home in today's marketplace is downright MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE.

You're doing yourself, your home, and your agent a huge disservice by overpricing your home in the current buyer's market. Overpriced homes get shown last, if at all, and they sit un-sold much longer than homes that are priced right. You think that old strategy of pricing higher than your absolute minimum acceptable sales price will work because now you're adding some ‘padding'?

Seriously?

You think that's a good strategy?

Uh...no, it's not.

It's a terrible strategy and it absolutely does not work in today's market. Moreover, you're doing a great thing for your neighbors' agents. You see, by pricing your home too high, you are helping to sell your competition's homes -- hard pill to swallow, but oh-so true.

Today's market is not the market of just a few years ago and your home will sit on the market while the seasons change, the well-priced competition goes to settlement, and the days roll by.

Do yourself a favor and listen to your well-informed, professional real estate professional. This is what we do. As Realtors we research your specific area and give you a price range that reflects myriad factors affecting your home's saleability. We listen to your needs, your wants, and your motivation in order to create a marketing plan specific to your home.

Personally, I spend lots of money out-of-pocket on the marketing of your home and I won't touch your home with a 10-foot pole if you and I are not on the same page when it comes to pricing. Why bother? Why waste time, energy, and MY money? A broke Realtor + a frustrated Seller = 1 Hot Mess.

You want sell your overpriced home? -- change that ACTIVE status to PENDING and then SOLD? Realize the gold mine you have at your disposal. Your agent did the hard work, researched the information you needed to make a decision, and provided that information to you quickly and efficiently, right? Now, the onus is upon you to use that information to make a well-informed decision and price your home right the first time. Don't get caught ‘chasing the market'!

What's ‘chasing the market', you ask?

Well, ‘chasing the market' is...another blog altogether!

What will you be doing when the weather breaks? I fully expect the real estate market in Harford County to get HOT! I look forward to working with clients to find some great deals - there are plenty to be had! - and then taking it easy on the bay - maybe catching some rockfish!
