Sellers, Do You Know Who Is Knocking At Your Door?

February 24, 2009

Who’s knocking at your door? Do you know who is standing outside?
Are they a buyer? Or, are they looking for a way into your home?

It’s a tough real estate market. I know Atlanta sellers are anxious to find a buyer. But…

Please, don’t open your door to an unrepresented buyer.

Insist buyers make an appointment to view the property with your real estate agent, or theirs.

If you are not represented by an agent, schedule an appointment for a later time.

What Home Sellers Want

February 18, 2009

Home buyers ask, “What do sellers want?”
Sellers want to know, “What do home buyers want?”

Every transaction requires a home buyer and a home seller, so it’s only fair to ask both sides the same question.

Using the same research tool from yesterday, we discovered what home sellers want to know.

I don’t see a meeting of the minds. Do you?

How Many Geeks Does it Take to Sell a House?

March 6, 2008

Can You Sell a House and Move Using the Web Exclusively?

Drew raised some interesting questions after stumbling across a post on Proud Geek earlier today.

The blogger (and his wife) conducted a 8-month experiment to sell their home using the web. No phone calls. Only e-mail, text messaging, and web tools.

There were 6 main steps they went through during the experiment (you can read their findings on Proud Geek):

  • Find a realtor via the web and who’s willing to do everything through email
  • Advertise the home on the web
  • Find a lender who’s willing to deal exclusively via the web
  • Switching or starting new utilities and services for a new house
  • Find a moving company willing to deal via web and email
  • Changing addresses for a range of organizations, stores, banks, employment-related sites, etc

Can you, as a real estate agent, meet the criteria the blogger set forth? What about you mortgage folks?

Sellers, how important is electronic communication to you?

Our team always get hung up with the utility vendors.

What’s your experience?
