Hi All~
Even the media is beginning to cast a positive glow on the market lately. The future is definitely looking brighter for real estate. Increased consumer confidence has created a more positive buying and selling atmosphere. The housing market has definitely turned a corner. In the last week of April (as compared to same week one year ago) posted new listings were up 13.9%, pending sales up 41.2%, and a decrease in inventory of 28.4%. Exactly what we've been waiting for over the past several years ....a more balanced market! Rates remain at 4% and below.
I hope you're enjoying your Spring. It sure is nice to have things all greened up again! If you or someone you know is thinking of buying or selling, give me a call.
Best regards,
Lori

7 Springtime Home Spruces to Boost Buyer Interest
By Tara Nelson
One of the first things many homebuyers look for are the unmistakable signs of something called 'pride of ownership.' As a whole, it's a relatively intangible concept: there are just homes that have it - reeking of their owners' love and meticulous care for the property -- and homes that, well, don't.
I've watched firsthand as buyers who like a cute home that is in generally good shape literally talk themselves into looking at a more homes once they start to notice one rickety gate, which snowballed into a nitpicky laundry list of little, tiny fixes the seller had left undone. The challenge is that between deciding whether and when to sell, staging, interviewing agents and determining a list price, it can be tempting for homeowners to fall into the trap of deferring maintenance on a home they might sell soon.

What Sellers Say vs. What Buyers Hear
By Tara Nelson
My doctor recently confided in me that physicians have a golden rule when it comes to getting an accurate estimate of how much alcohol their patients drink on a daily basis. They take whatever number of drinks you enter on the patient information form, then multiply it by a factor of three!
While comedic (if slightly troubling), this rule is not that dissimilar from how home buyers approach the art and science of translating home sale listing-speak into what they think is a more accurate understanding of the property's characteristics and condition.
