HOMEOWNER’S OPPORTUNITYYOU MAY WANT TO SELL YOUR HOME ONCE YOUREALIZE THE OPPORTUNITIES.
Happy New Year is a dubious expression to many homeowners. I am taking
a positive, constructive approach to selling in this challenging year. There is
an amazing silver lining for many of us if we are willing take off the blanket
of negativity.
If you have been wanting or needing to sell your home & are looking for a
new one, there has never been a better time to do it! We have had a real
estate recession since October 2005. Many owners are concerned about
their losses & don’t realize their opportunities.
Here are your opportunities:
• The property you are purchasing will cost you less, negating the
losses from selling your home for less.
• You have more choices than ever to find the perfect home. In a
seller’s market you may have as few as two potential choices and
no time to negotiate a good price or the home will be sold.
• Interest rates are lower than ever. Prices are down. Interest rates
are down. Your money goes a long way. It is amazing what you
can buy for an incredibly low monthly payment.
• Your capital gains tax will be less with a lower sales price. You may
pay no tax.
• Property tax for many will be 20 to 50% less than what you are
paying now for a comparable property.
A good marketing & negotiating real estate professional will sell your home
for the highest price possible & negotiate the purchase of your new property
at the lowest price possible. Navigating through the complicated process
with a true professional will give you the most phenomenal results that you
could ever imagine.
My team is ready to create these results for you.
Make this a truly Happy New Year
