Atlanta Home Selling Strategies in A Buyers market

Selling a home in Atlantais normally a trying thing to do in a normal real estate market.   Today things are a lot more difficult.  Not only are home sales off, but so are prices, and we have rising unemployment.  Selling a home in Atlanta is now like holding a yard sale that no one even comes to looking at your items no matter what the price. It is imperative that we not only have the right price but also that we paint, clean carpets, cut lawn, do some upgrades, and beef up the landscaping. 

A buyers market is very different.  In a buyers market like we have in Atlanta right now, things are different.  There are more homes to look at, they all have great prices and they are all loaded with extras.  Which one do you buy?  Buyers now can take their time looking at all the Atlanta homes for sale and choose just the right home at the right price.  There is no rush.  They are not relocating into Atlanta they are currently renting a home month-to-month just down the street from your home that has been on the market for over a year.  They are waiting for just the right deal.

Sometimes in a changing market in real estate, we have to choose a new perspective, and fresh ideas that are based upon experience to get a home or real estate sold.

Paul Henderson, Realtor ® Lacey, DuPont or Hartstene Pointe WA. (RE/MAX Professionals & Four Seasons Inc.)  Amen to that!  It is not about buying the listing or getting a sign in ground with our name on it. It is about selling it.

Lyn Sims ~ Chicago Northwest Suburbs (Schaumburg Illinois ~ RE/MAX Suburban)  I agree.

Jim, 

Yes, it's got to show well and be priced right day one!  

If so, the buyers will come!

All the best, Michelle
