How much is my home really worth? You have probably heard of the term CMA before.  In simple terms, a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) is the process by which Realtors compare your home with other homes In the area that have sold.  This process is fundamental to determining the value of your home.

Selling Information

Everyone has a different take on the state of the real estate market. Some experts say prices will drop more, some say they'll flatten, while others say they'll increase slightly this year.
Because real estate rates are determined locally, it's possible for all three scenarios to take place.  According to the National Association of Realtors, The Housing Bubble and Its Implications for the Economy, "The inventory of unsold homes on the market is at an all-time high of 3.9 million, which is a 40 percent rise from a year ago."
Sellers need to be savvier and more strategic in order to sell their home within a shorter timeframe and at a good price.
When we list your home we will consider these four points :

1. Know Your Home's Worth
Don't rely on real estate websites alone for home valuations. While instant home valuations are fun to use, they are based on past home sales and use computer formula that do not necessarily reflect current market trends. Your best bet is to get a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), a professional assessment of your property's value.  With a CMA in hand, you are prepared to set your list price.  In most circumstances I can have a CMA in your hand within 24 hours.
Once you've settled on a list price, have I will reevaluate it every couple of weeks to stay current. If you don't get any interest or offers within the first three weeks, your asking price might be adjusted.

2. Condition Counts
Quirky fixer uppers are a thing of the past. Today's homebuyer is all about instant gratification, and the last thing he or she wants to do is move into a house that requires immediate cleaning or repair. The best thing you can do as a seller is to present your home to potential buyers in the very best possible light.

To present your home at its best, repaint tired and dirty walls, thoroughly clean all carpets, flooring and windows, and update front landscaping. Organize and update kitchens and bathrooms, the most problematic areas of a home. Make sure all kitchen and bath appliances and plumbing are in good working order.
A home in a less-than-sparkling condition can suggest a desperate seller and may yield a smaller profit.  A couple hundred dollars in repairs can net you thousands on the bottom line.

3. Cover Part of the Buyer's Costs
A generous overture can make you more attractive to potential buyers. Offering to pay some of the buyer's closing costs, funding a portion of the buyer's financing, or paying for inspections or repairs that reduce the buyer's out-of-pocket expenses can help distinguish you and your home from the competition.  On average buyers will make a higher offer when they know the seller is already offering a buyer incentive.  Remember that a Lowes Gift Card or a weekend vacation voucher will help to sell your home!
