An astonishing thing has been happening lately with Sacramento real estate agents out in the field. It appears they don't have an app they can use to find listings. MetroList pretty much sucks, if you want to know the truth, and it doesn't work in a user-friendly way on mobile. MetroList is a mon

Among the 5 new listings I am pleased to introduce to the market in Sacramento today, all of which are impressive, a home on a country club golf course in Elk Grove, located at the 4th (par 3) hole, is likely to draw the most attention. It's a custom built home, almost 4,500 square feet, 5 bedroo

There is generally more than one way to sell real estate and to move homes in Sacramento. Couple those options with brand new technology, much of which seems to move at the speed of light, and you'll realize that real estate constantly changes, constantly evolves, and no 2 real estate agents are

An agent from out-of-area sent me an offer with a very nice letter from a buyer, sharing a horrific event in the buyer's life. The agent also included a letter from the agent, letting us know that although the home is absolutely perfect for the buyer and the buyer appreciates the seller's upgrade

The thing about working on the Elizabeth Weintraub Team is you never really know when you get might get called to do an interview for TV. Radio is not so bad and neither are newspaper reporters because they don't have to meet you in person, but there is something about being in front of a video c

Left to their own devices, sellers can do some of the craziest things to prepare a home for sale. Sometimes, believe it or not, they leave decisions up to the contractors who are doing the work. I listed a home in Sacramento recently that was undergoing a major rehabilitation project. No idea wha

When I asked an agent why her buyer had submitted an offer below the comparable sales, so out of reach with reality, the answer had little to do with any research on market value. It appears that the buyer felt that even though the sales price was already reduced to account for compensating facto

There are days recently in Sacramento real estate when I feel like some of us agents are the butt-end of a joke about how many home buyers it takes to screw in a light bulb or buy a house. Is the third time a charm? The fourth? You tell me. It seems buyers are signing purchase contracts like they

I encourage Sacramento listing agents to step up their game a notch and to reach out, touch their home sellers more often. Let your sellers know what's going on with the sale of their home. Keep your sellers informed, even if you don't have any good news to report. Call, email, text. Write a lett
