It's May 1st and I'm watching snow fall outside my office window. (Insert primal scream here!!) Still, May is a great time to get your house cleaned, refreshed & ready for Summer. If your house is on the market, ramp up the curb appeal with flowers & plants.

 

If I can help you or someone you know prepare, market & sell a home or help find that special place to call home please let me know. I'd be honored to help.

 

With all the confidence that Spring really will arrive and things really will turn green and flowers really will bloom, I wish you a warm, sunny May!

 

 Warm Regards,

     Signature Nancy

  Twin Cities real estate agents compete for home sellers 

by Jim Buchta  

 

(Nancy is quoted in the following article!)
 

 

 Real estate agent Ryan Ness filled his pocket with business cards one recent weekday afternoon and strolled down several blocks of homes in a Cottage Grove subdivision.

 

He knocked on front doors, searching for someone  - anyone - who might be willing to sell. One by one, he was politely turned away. "They're leery of the market," said Ness, a 30-year-old agent with Coldwell Banker Burnet.

 

With the number of homes for sale at the lowest level in more than a decade, Twin Cities agents are finding themselves working harder than ever to find sellers, even while prices are climbing by double-digit rates in many areas.

Prepping Your Home for Resale? Get Ready to Take the Stage


It may seem counterintuitive to put decorator touches on a home you've decided to sell, but "staging" your home-fixing it up and decorating it so it will appeal to the broadest range of potential buyers-pays real dividends. According to the Concord, California-based International Association of Home Staging Professionals (IAHSP), even in the 2007 market slowdown the average professionally staged home sold within 32 days, compared to 160 days for comparable non-staged homes.
