Happy 2012! Many of you have asked if I think things will start selling in the Cary NC Real Estate market 2012. Without hesitation, I answer YES!
While I cannot predict that the prices will see a drastic increase yet, I expect sales volume will continue to increase. Here are some thoughts on what it will take to be successful at selling in 2012.
The Six Factors to Selling a Home in 2012 are.....
1. Market it early in the year - For those thinking of selling, do not wait. As we get closer to the summer the competition will increase, there will be more Homes for Sale in Cary NC and foreclosure inventory will rise. Currently, 10% of the homes for sale are distressed (short sales or foreclosures) in Wake County. You want to market the property when competition is low. The more competition, the less money we tend to get on the sale.
2. Market it aggressively - Aggressive marketing is the job of the Cary NC Realtor you hire. Too many agents list a property, put it in the MLS and wait for someone else to do the work. That marketing strategy doesn't work anymore. To get it sold in 2012, the property has to be pushed....the 'squeaky wheel gets the oil.' The property marketed aggressively gets the buyer.
Cary/Apex/Raleigh/Holly Springs NC - Real Estate blog. I had the opportunity to hear Tony Tata address Cary NC Realtors regarding the new Wake County School Assignment Plan. Our hope is that this new plan will have a positive impact on Cary NC Real Estate. There are a lot of great advantages to the new "Choice Student Assignment Plan" that you can benefit from whether you are planning to sell your home, purchase a new home, or just stay put for a while!
The key objectives of the new plan are (1) stability, (2) proximity, (3) choice, and (4) achievement. The choice plan gives families exactly that, a choice! Families who are happy with their current schools can stay. Upcoming sibilings can join the same plan. And best of all, the new plan prevents controversial mandatory reassignments.
Many consumers consider selling their home directly but eventually turn to REALTORS®. Smart home sellers realize they need the expertise in pricing their home, making connections with REALTORS® working with buyers, arranging and staffing open houses, and coordinating with other professionals in the sales process.
Only about half of all real estate agents are REALTORS® - the top half, in our not-so-humble opinion. REALTORS® work independently, for small agencies, or for large brokerages. They help people buy and sell residential or commercial properties, vacation homes, and land; they conduct appraisals; they operate in the United States and in other countries; some specialize in auctions; and others are buyer's representatives.
