(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) If over 80% of all buyers are shopping on the web, then as real estate professionals we need to be there first.  They are looking for property and are hungry for information on how to go about purchasing that property.  Eventually these buyers end up with real estate professionals to guide them through the process as evidenced by the large blue wedge in the following chart.  Almost half of the buyers who buy homes come directly through the agents. What Does That Mean to You as a Seller?It means you need an agent who can be found on the Internet.  Found by buyers and found by other agents.  Because when your agent knows how to be found, he/she will know how to get your home found on the Internet.  To Get Buyers to Come In:Your agent needs to be:Using a blog to comm...

The Crescent Trail is traveled by bikers, runners, skaters and walkers.  The path is absolutely beautiful with water falls.  The Potomac River runs along it as well.       On my last ride -- I ran into a painter who was enjoying the delightful weather on a beautiful November Day.  I had to stop to take a picture of his wonderful painting.  Personally, I think he did an excellent job of capturing the scene.  What do you think?   Here's the scene he was painting!   There's no better way to view DC than on your bike on a Sunday --     Need I say More!   I am ready to ride whenever you are!

(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) When a buyer looks at a home, they look at all the factors: foreclosures, distressed sales, bankruptcies, divorces, and area market fluctuations. All too often sellers mistake the appraisal value of their home as what a diligent buyer would pay. An appraisal is an opinion of value for an entirely different purpose than selling your home - often to provide a bank information to fund a loan. If a lender is motivated to loan you money, his appraisal may come in higher than the true market value of your property. The appraiser might ignore other issues in his analysis, such as foreclosures in the market or distressed sales. Thus the real picture of the market is clouded by an overly optimistic assessment.Many sellers use the appraised value of their home in order to j...

(BETHESDA REAL ESTATE) Some of the traditional advertising tools agents have used are print ads and open houses.  In truth, print ads bring little to no activity to the home and less than 1% of houses ever sell at an open house. Agents use open houses to attract buying prospects, not to sell your home, although the more buyer prospects I have as an agent the better I am able to market directly to them.  Knowing that 3-4 buyers are looking right in one area for a certain home means I can match them up when listings come up that meet their criteria.Successful marketing of your home - getting the best price, at the right terms, and with the fewest problems - requires much more. In fact, over 80% of all buyers start on the Internet so that's why the most competent agents will have a broad r...
