Selling in a Buyer's Market it can be a good thing. Here is a few thoughts from my RE/MAX TEAM to all you current Sellers or Potential Sellers
Even in a slower market, the good homes go fast! Smart sellers are realizing that a proactive selling strategy can go a long way in getting their home sold, even when inventories are high. Here are three tips for today's sellers:
I truly believe that this has to be One of the most important elements in getting your home sold in a timely fashion is pricing it correctly.
When you fail to do that, the wrong buyers are coming through your home. But when you set the correct price, you'll be attracting buyers who are looking for exactly the type of home you're offering.
You may have seen online sites that place values on homes throughout your neighborhood. While some of these are very technologically sophisticated, they don't take into account the things that make your home special - and more valuable: the beautiful landscaping, the new kitchen you've just installed, the bathroom you've updated, the incredible view, the loving care you've given it.
An experienced agent such as myself, one who's make sure she is always familiar with your area, considers every factor involved and make sure I can give you the best advice on how to price your home. Together, we'll set a price that will maximize your net return.
So, Whether you're looking to sell today or are thinking of selling tomorrow, please feel free to call me anytime and ask for a computer analysis of our recent market activity or even check out one of my link such as Zillow. I would be more than happy to answer any questions you might have. 423-817-2004
Have a great day.

Hey Guys as you know I like to pass things on when I think that my fellow activerainers would appreciate every now and then A good laugh or even a pause just to think about how TRUE IT IS....
YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2009 when...
1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.
8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.
10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.
11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )
12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.
14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.
AND NOW U R LAUGHING AT YOURSELF
Go on, forward this to your friends. You know you want to...
