Reprinted from Home Value Leads blog https://www.homevalueleads.com/dont-need-no-stinking-badges/: “How’s the real estate market?” asked the elderly gentleman in line behind me at the grocery store.  At first, I was taken back by his question.  Why would a random stranger talk to me?  How does he know I’m a real estate agent?  And then I remembered:  Duh, I’m wearing my name badge! “The market’s continuing to rise, but a bit slower than this summer.  It’s probably going to level off in winter.  Why, are you thinking about selling your house?”  I asked with a grin. “Not right now.  We’re downsizing to a retirement home in about 2 years, so I’m trying to time the market for the best time to sell,” he answered. “Would you like me to send you some stats about your local area?” I asked.  “I ... 01/21/2015

Selling a fixer upper in San Marcos - San Marcos fixer upper I recently met with a man who's thinking of selling a fixer upper in San Marcos. He's lived in this home for 40 years and obviously hasn't spent a lot of time or money keeping up with the home because there were quite a few deferred maintanance issues that were easy to spot. He's met with investors because they knock on his door. The last investor who he allowed in his home wasn't very nice.
