Your friend should sell their home this summer

Your friend told you they are interested in selling their home sometime in 2020. You should let them know that they need to act sooner rather than later. Typically most real estate transactions take place in Springtime. Due to the Coronavirus and homeowners holding off on selling their homes, home sale transactions were down about 40% during the 2020 Spring selling season. Because of this home selling delay, the Spring selling season has essentially been pushed to Summer 2020. It's projected that the Los Angeles area will have an uptick in inventory and have a very strong buyer demand for the entire Summer season. I am recommending to your friend that they sell during this peak time and not wait until Fall or Winter.

The reason to not delay is that the flu season will start in Fall and many of us will get the common flu. Since the symptoms for the Coronavirus and the flu are similar, I am anticipating that during this time daily news reports will say that a second wave of the Coronavirus is coming. This news will make sellers rethink their plans of putting their home on the market. Because of this, I expect the market to see a repeat of what happened when the stay-at-home order was put in place back in late March. If you are not aware, during that time real estate escrows were being canceled left and right. Sellers were offering buyers $10K, $20K, $30k in credits just to stay in escrow. Some buyers took the deal, most did not. Compound that with home sales traditionally being slow in the 4th quarter due to the holidays, and you essentially have a standstill in the real estate market. That's why I am confident that this Summer will be the best time for your friend to see multiple offers on their home and to sell for top dollar.

When your friend is ready to sell their home, I can help them with the sale. Text their name and number to 818-445-7953, and I'll take care of the rest.

Thank you for all your referrals so far this year! I truly appreciate you helping my business thrive during a pandemic.

Should I get the square footage on my homes tax records fixed?

Thank goodness I gave the county assessor the info he needed in order to change the square footage reflected on my properties public tax record!

Having the correct record made a huge difference when I sold my property.

If your home buyer refuses to remove their contingencies, cancel escrow immediately

If your home buyers are not removing their contingencies, they are not serious buyers.
.
Drop them as soon as possible and make sure your agent puts your home as "Active" again on the MLS.

Hire an agent that will provide a marketing video for your home... or sell your home for less money. Your choice.

If your agent does not provide you with a marketing video for your for sale property, you will leave money on the table.
-
Period.
-
End of story.
-
I know for a fact that our marketing videos get thousands of views. Why would you want to miss out on thousands of views?

If you want top dollar for your property, hire an agent that provides this service.

Drone shots should only be a small part of your home's marketing video

Use a drone shot to introduce your viewers to the outside of the home.

But don't linger too long... you will lose your audience.

Get to the good stuff quickly, show the kitchen and bathrooms as soon as possible.

Can I sell a house that is being rented out and has tenants living there?

You will get more money for your property if you deliver it vacant upon sale.

If a home buyer has to inherit your tenants, you will not get top dollar

If you have tenants living at your property, and you plan on selling, it's time to give them a 60 day notice to move.
-
If you don't want to do that, keep in mind only investors will be making offers on your property.
-
That cuts your potential buyer pool from 100% of the market, down to 20%.
-
Having less buyers for your property means you will not be getting the top dollar competition demands.
