You informed your tenant(s), hired a real estate agent, your selling price is competitive, had a wood-boring bug test and have your certificate, cleaned up the outside of the property, and put a new coat of paint on the walls.

Your real estate agent has called to schedule quite a few tours of the property; but you haven't sold or received an offer - and you are wondering why!?

You question your realtor; could it be the selling price or could it be the profit margin on the property is not sufficient enough to be attractive to an investor?

Your realtor reports back that your selling price is still competitive, but - it could very well be the profit margin!

Those wanting to buy investment property want to have more than a break-even bottom line! There must be enough monies left each month to cover any and all repairs required on the property. To be attractive to a buyer, an investment property must accrue equity and turn a profit!

Another scenario; realtors are calling for appointments to tour the property; but just can't seem to make the dates and times match the availability of the tenants. And your property is still sitting unsold! At issue, your tenants are concerned that with a new owner their rents will be raised beyond their ability to afford; so they make it almost impossible for a potential investment buyer to get into the property!

Of course no guarantees can be made by the property seller or realtor; but perhaps it would be in the best interest of all parties to explain to the tenants that an investment property buyer wants a fully rented property! It would be in no one's best interest to cause a good tenant to move out leaving the new owner the burden to find a new tenant!

Contact me and I will help you sell your investment property!

You want to, you hired a real estate professional to list your property on the MLS, those first-time buyers are wanting that $8000 tax credit (so where are they?) but it has been more than 30 days ... And Your Property Is Still Not Sold! Why Not!?

You watch those programs that tell you:

You must declutter!

You must stage your home!

You must have curb appeal!

You must upgrade the appliances!

You must paint the rooms a neutral color!

What those programs don't tell you is that to do most of those things - you need money!

And the other thing that those programs don't focus on; is when you are selling your home; it must be priced right! Priced competitively, which is pricing based on what other homes in your area have sold for! This is not based on the fancy kitchen counter tops, not based on the pool in the backyard; which actually can be the reason your home hasn't sold, and not based on what you paid for it!

When selling your home:

Yes, take the photos off the wall and you can even use a small dab of toothpaste

to cover the hole!

Yes, have a yard sale and/or donate reusable goods (get a receipt) to be rid of all

those "things" that you have not used in the last six months!

Yes, clean up the yard of debris and store away all those toys (child's and adult's)

so that a buyer can imagine their family enjoying that big backyard!

Yes, grab the soap, bucket and rag and wash the walls, woodwork and windows!

(Clean is the next best thing to new!)

And the most important thing to do when selling your home...

Price The Property To SELL!

Yes, I said "Property"! This is no longer the home you have enjoyed; this is a "piece of property" that you want to be rid of! You may believe that you are losing dollars when you sell; but what you want to buy is also priced lower; so you will benefit in the long-run!

When selling your home, if it is not priced right - it won't sell! Don't chase the market, price your property right from the start; and you will be packing up sooner rather than later!

When Selling Your Home - You Are In A Beauty Contest & A Pricing Contest!

Do it right from the start, and you will be the WINNER!
