Home Improvements That Pay Off - Odessa TX

When selling you home the temptation is strong:

 When interviewing agents you focus all of your attention on how much they charge and what they claim the house is going to sell for. In reality you may be getting less than you bargained for. Some real estate agents recommend you do little if anything to get your home ready for sale. This could work if you price the listing to look like a bargain. However, most buyers in today’s market are nervous and picky. They aren’t in a hurry and they want a house that’s move-in ready. An agent who is looking for a fast sale might steer you away from doing any fix-up work. It takes a lot of time and coordination to get a home properly prepared for sale in today’s market. Some agents don’t want to take on the effort, or haven’t the vision to see the home’s potential. This could cost you on the sale.

REAL EXPERIENCE:

Case Study: Agent B Agentagent didn’t tell her clients what they needed to do to get their house ready for sale. True, the house had good features but it needed attention to the details. It looked undersized, worn and uncared for. All of the items needed to give it a face lift could have been completed at little or no upfront cost but the sellers never were properly advised. The house didn’t sell until the sellers hired me and I recommended a laundry list of items to take care of before selling. The home was then staged, received a high quality photo shoot and heavily marketed online – including video! The house then received great reviews from agents, numerous showings to buyers and most important – a contract.

YOUR ADVANTAGE:

It’s a new start for you; I have experience helping people like you successfully sell their home the second time around. If you’d like to ask me a few questions – no pressure, no hassle, no obligation – just a friendly conversation about your plans, please call me directly at 432-934-4439. Let’s get your home sale moving,

Owner Finance Homes - Odessa TX

A Rare Find In Odessa TX

Question from Buyer- Are there any owner financed homes in Odessa TX? Owner financed homes are a rare find in Odessa TX. Out of all homes for sale in the MLS, only about 1/2% or less offer this finance option. With this in mind your chooses are limited; so you will need to throw out the “wish list” and focus on “must have”.

I am assuming that your are focusing on homes financed by the seller becauseyou have been turned down for a mortgage loan. Today’s owners who are willing to finance are expecting larger down payments ($15,000 & more), charge a higher than market interest rate and many will only finance short term (usually only 2-3 years). This means that you will not only have to make monthly payments but you also need to get credit worthy because your loan note will become due and payable at the end of the loan period.

All this said, if you want the best deal in Odessa TX

Get into credit counseling – they can help you rebuild your credit.
Hire a good Realtor who can advise you on all your options and which is best for you.

Be patient, pay every bill on time and save as much money as possible in the mean time.

What's A Phot Worth When Selling Your Home - Odessa TX

$1,000s... Don't leave money on the table when selling your home in Odessa TX

 real estate photography odessa txPROFESSIONAL QUALITY PHOTOS

 Don’t want to de-value your home? Consider better photos. Listings with great photos get more online attention and command higher asking prices. And yet, only a very small percent of agents incorporate higher-end wide angle photography into their marketing. Surprisingly, even when marketing homes in the upper price range, they don’t always invest in quality photos to showcase these homes. Real estate listings that use photographs taken by the higher-end 24mm WIDE ANGLE cameras tend to do better than those that use photos from cheaper point-and- shoot cameras. As The Wall Street Journal 10/4/2010 reports, “listings with nicer photos gain anywhere between $934 and $116,076.” Wide angle cameras capture more of the room’s features and tend to produce high-quality images. They cost more than point-and-shoot cameras, but considering the data, they are worth the investment for a home seller. Rather than wide-angle photography, most agents photograph using a simple point-n-shoot or camera phone. The biggest surprise is that they just don’t want to invest the extra to make the best first impression to buyers.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU?:

 Do you believe your home is worth it? Let’s not mince words: If your home is not being marketed using quality photography & video, this could cost you on the sale. A wide-angle, professional-looking photo dramatically increases the likelihood that a potential buyer will click through to view your listing, and drives more buyers to tour your home. Ultimately, the more people interested in your house, the better your chance of receiving an attractive offer. A photo really can be worth a thousand dollars.

YOUR ADVANTAGE:

So, What's a photo worth to you when selling a home for sale in Odessa TX?
