1st Quarter Slump In Homes Sales In the Eugene and Springfield Market Area

Monday, June 6, 2011

by Galand Haas

Good Monday Morning!

Real Estate sales in the Eugene and Springfield area continue to slump. January saw 160 closed Real estate transactions in Lane County and February saw 161 closed sales. This is an extremely low number in comparison to a normal market. Just think, there are over 700 Real Estate Agents in the Eugene and Springfield area. This low number of home sales is putting much more pressure on home prices, so as a result look for home values to continue their decline.

This is not such great news for home sellers, but for home buyers it means that there are some great opportunities in this market. There are also more Foreclosure properties hitting the market and these also offer some potential for a great deal on a home. If you would like to receive a weekly list of Foreclosure and Bank Owned homes by e-mail just visit the web site www.eugenebankowned.com. By registering at this site you will receive a weekly list of the most recent homes to hit the foreclosure list.

Have An Awesome Week!

Spring Market Home Selling Tips

Friday, April 2, 2010

by Galand Haas

Good Monday Morning!

Daylight savings time is back. Now with the longer days it truly feels like Spring again.

With todays competitive home market, home sellers are having to pay much closer attention to detail than ever before. To start out with, in the current market a home must be priced correctly not just to sell but to even get lookers. Pricing a home has never been harder than it is in this current market. As prices continue to slide downwards the homes that have sold in which we typically compare values with may be worth more than a home going on the market today. For this reason comparable sales are not the reliable resource that they once were. Market savvy Real Estate agents are also not the norm and home sellers must seek out an agent who has a good perspective on the current market. Over pricing a home in this market will insure that your home stays on the market for a long time and you will lose money as the market slips as you wait for buyers that will never arrive. Pricing for a quick sale is very wise in this market.

Your home not only needs to be priced correctly, but it also needs to show better than the competition. The best priced, most attractive homes are the ones being sold. Home staging is essential in this market and the services of a professional home stager can save you time on the market and put money in your pocket. Also, making sure that your lawn and landscaping is in top condition can make a huge impact as well. Most prospective buyers drive by first and that first impression from a drive by goes along ways towards prospective buyers wanting to look inside.

In this market, we council all of our home sellers carefully in regards to price, condition, staging and outside appearance. The result is that the homes we represent sell for more money and in much less time than homes listed by any other area agents. In this market this means more money in your pocket.

Have An Awesome Week!
