Palm Beach Real Estate and Loans

Now that we've talked about MARKETING AND PRICING, I'd like to go over another item that is often misunderstood:

Restricting when your home can / can not be shown.

It can't get much more simple then this -

If you want to sell your home, you have to let people see it!

We are still in a Buyer's Market - there is a lot of inventory out there and if you try to pick and choose when when your property can be shown you are definitely hurting your chances.

I've had Owners say: "If they really want to see my home, they'll .... blah, blah, blah."

Sorry, no.

In a lot of cases people will only be in town for a day or two, over the weekend, etc.  They'll have a list of homes that they want to see and if they can't see the ones they want, they'll just buy another.  It's that easy.

Now I'm not talking about showing at ridiculous hours (sometimes Buyers can be too pushy) - but you have to make your property available.

Perfect example: I have a family coming in from Europe in a few weeks.  We've gone over all of their requirements and pared down the homes that are available.  They are serious buyers and will be buying something in the 2 days that they are here. I'll let you know what happens.....
