sellers: Honesty is the Best Policy in Ann Arbor Real Estate

Several years ago, I met a professor in the Psychology Dept. at the University of Michigan. She had found me on the Internet and wanted me to preview her lake house to sell. The house was a cute cottage on the Horseshoe Chain of Lakes. We walked around the cottage, it was only about 30 feet to the water. Really cute cottage. As we continued to walked around the house, she told me that the air conditioning unit was encroaching on the house next door and she asked me if she should move it? My response was, “What is your … (62 comments)

Most of you know, I am a listing agent with four buyer agents. Buying a home in today’s market is wonderful. Buyers are able to get some great homes for very good prices, something maybe out of their price range several years ago. Buyers are fun to work with they are so excited when they find their future home. You can see the light in their eyes and a smile on their face when they know it is the house for them. I am sad, like a big weight on my shoulders after I meet with sellers and do their … (60 comments)
sellers: In This Market????
- 01/25/08 08:23 AM
Here's your Friday chuckle: ( this is true ) My daughter was setting up showings today for tomorrow. The listing office told her to call the seller. So she called and said, "Hi, this is Christa from Keller Williams and I would like to show your home tomorrow between 11:00 and 12:00." Silence "Sir, would it be possible to show your home tomorrow?" "Oh, hell.........I'll have to get up and clean up the house" In this market, in sub degree weather, is this seller motivated or what? Seriously...this happened 5 minutes ago. Have a great weekend... sell lots of houses. … (52 comments)

A few days ago I wrote on post on the Pre-Listing Questionnaire, I send out BEFORE I meet with clients, to determine their motivation for selling, their financial situation or their ability to sell. I mentioned how this helps me be prepared before I show up for the listing appointment. The other items I include in the email is my Marketing Plan. I ask them in advance to please check out all the web sites I am sending them so they will get a clear idea of where all their home will be marketed on the Internet. Most sellers don't have … (103 comments)
sellers: How will YOU Know when YOUR Market has Turned ?
- 10/13/07 05:25 AM
We read so many posts here on Activerain, about the market, the inventory, the lack of buyers, frustrated sellers, the economy, and the sub-prime mortgage industry, foreclosures, and the media. There is tons of finger pointing.........the buyers signing things they didn't understand, the lenders for selling mortgages to uncredit worthy people, the appraisers for appraising houses higher than they should have, Realtors pricing too high. We have seen and read it all. As a licensed Broker, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, we saw the market turn back in summer of 2001. Yes, I said summer of 2001, before 9-11. For example, I … (83 comments)
