I am moving to Phoenix & plan to buy a 4BR home in North Phoenix. How much time does it normally take to?

Asked Mon Apr 7 2008, 22:53 by Mathew - 85085 - Home Buying - 8 answers

Anna Goodman answered:

Mathew,
Jason is right. If home ownership is your goal there is no better time and place than Phoenix right now. We have lots of inventory to choose from, many of them vacant and move in ready. Find a great agent and use her to help you research properties. Get in touch with a lender and get your financial ducks in a row. From there you can hit the ground running.
If you are not already working with an agent I would love to apply for the job. Welcome to our city!!

Realtor Fees - what % are Phoenix Sellers really paying their agents?

Asked Wed Mar 19 2008, 13:26 by Margaret - Phoenix - Home Selling - 9 answers

Anna Goodman answered:

This is a really tricky question to answer. Every agent can work for what ever price he/she wants. Generally speaking, you get what you pay for. If 6% seems high to you I would go back to the agent and clarify what it is he does to earn the service fee charged. Keep in mind that he will need to pay the buyers agent out of the fee you and he negotiate. Good luck on the sale of your home. - Wed Mar 19 2008, 14:54

looking for a home

Asked Sun Jan 20 2008, 08:15 by Thomas Desha… - Phoenix - Home Buying - 5 answers

Anna Goodman answered:

Thomas,
The Valley is huge! I can see you are out of state. I would love to have a chat with you to learn more about your situation and what area you might enjoy living in. If you are coming to the Valley for work you may want to live nearby. If you are coming to retire you will have a different set of needs. While in a family neighborhood a 2bed can be a detriment, that is not always the case in a retirement community.

How do I compete with a foreclosure two doors down?

Asked Thu Jan 17 2008, 07:43 by Eric S. - South Phoenix - Foreclosure - 10 answers

Anna Goodman answered:

Unfortunately as soon as that property closes, foreclosure or not it will be a comp in your neighborhood. The only way to compete is to stay competitively priced and make sure your property is in top condition. Hopefully buyers will see the value of a clean, move in ready home over a bank owned property and buy yours instead of the one down the street. I would caution though, that although your property may be in better shape than the foreclosure, in this market buyers seem unwilling to pay more for it. It seems buyers are really focused on price. They will choose the lowest price home in the best condition. Good Luck. - Thu Jan 17 2008, 07:58

Has anybody else in the Phoenix area noticed rental signs being more prominent? Just seems that more homes

Asked Mon Jan 14 2008, 19:27 by David Baker - Phoenix - Market Conditions - 5 answers

Anna Goodman answered:

For many sellers who bought or refinanced in the boom and are upside down on their mortgage, renting is a good option. Especially since many buyers seem to be waiting for the market to "hit bottom" and they are waiting in rental properties. I see am regularly seeing sellers become landlords. Sometimes it is easier to loose a couple of hundred a month than to write a 50K check at close of escrow. - Tue Jan 15 2008, 05:59
