Marti: Your local real estate agent can provide you with that information. Most realtors will be happy to provide you with the information. If you want me to provide you with a contact with Coldwell Banker email me back at paularushing@comcast.net. - Wed Jun 18 2008, 11:38
No you should not be freaking out in this market. The market is very tough in our area right now. Buyers are being much more cautious and everyone is looking for a deal in a foreclosure. Your biggest competitors are new construction and the abundance of foreclosures on the market.
For years realtors said location, location, location. Your location appears to be great. In this market it is location, condition, price, and marketing. I agree with Traci that you might have to rethink your pricing. Pricing seems to be the major area that gets people to view. Make sure your agent is marketing your home in everyway possible. But even with a great marketing plan it comes back to price in this market.
Best of luck to you!

Hello Jennifer, I agree with Rebecca on the staging. I too looked at your link and think you could use a professional stager. Go to stagedhomes.com and find a professional stager in your area. Staging a home costs less than your first price reduction according to statistics. New pictures and/or a virtual tour will really help with internet advertising. Best of luck to you! - Mon Jun 9 2008, 10:14
Clarissa: It is never too much work. You need to ask your broker for the website for HUD homes in your area. For Mississippi it is hooksvanholm.com. The website gives an overview of what buyers and brokers need to do in order to purchase a HUD home. Our HUD's pay 5% commission! Ask your broker about upcoming training in HUD homes. Our board provides this training about once a year. - Tue May 13 2008, 10:03
Staged homes typically sell faster. If you are not confident in your ability to help the seller stage their home go to stagedhomes.com to find a professional stager in your area. Statistics show that staged homes can generate additional buyer interest, maximizing the selling price of the home and/or selling in the least amount of time. The cost of staging a home is usually less than the first price reduction. - Mon May 5 2008, 11:24
