Why Houses Aren’t Selling.

Despite what you see in the national media, houses in our market ARE selling. Seriously! I know of 2 local homes that went under contract last week at or above list price. Bother were on the market less than 3 days. And get this…one of them was not being actively shown because the homeowner was in the hospital. The offers were made sight unseen!!

In The Market, Out Of The Market, And No Man’s Land

Today’s housing market is fundamentally no different than any other. It’s just that there are fewer houses now that are truly “in the market”…meaning that buyers are seriously considering buying them. It’s all about a home’s price and condition.

Jap Papasan, best selling real estate author and VP at Keller Williams Realty put this short video together to go over the key issues. As always, Jay nails it. Check it out…
