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.
Yes, it is that time of year already! Time to start thinking about presents, bows, decorations, parties and hostess gifts. Did you know that 34% of consumers use thier mobile device to compare prices online while they shop in a store and 21% use the barcode scanning tool to search for the best price?

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.
