If you are a seller, regardless of which end of the market you are in, you have to price carefully. In the lower end of the market there is more competition so you must price competitively and if you are at the upper end of our market, where there are fewer buyers, you also have to price right for our current market. Too high of a price will almost guarantee that you will sit on your house without looking at any offers. If your goal is to sell, price right. Buyers, now is the time to get off the fence and make a purchase. We will begin to see more and more houses come on the market and the competition will become greater.
We work with both buyers and sellers. If you want honest and expert advice, please give us a call and let us know how we can help you. The majority of our clients are previous clients or their referrals – our clients come back to us because they know we do a great job. Robbie 530-412-0583 and Karen 530-448-3624.
