| Posted: 01 May 2020 05:14 AM PDT My husband and I are considering putting our house up for sale. He wants to upgrade the backyard landscaping, putting in about 5k worth of work, plants, and upgrades to our patio. I think that we could turn the house into the Taj Mahal, but there are barriers that we're not going to overcome. Were not going to see an ROI. We've got an 80s style family room (think wood panel walls and drop ceilings - and the house is a split level - also not desirable anymore, and the carpets could use a good cleaning.) That 5k may be better spent renovating the downstairs or the carpet anyway. What do you think? EDIT:Oh yeah, I forgot to mention it in the post. Our house also sits right next to active train tracks on a fairly busy road. The train goes by all hours of the day 7 days a week! I can't believe a split level house on a busy steet next to train tracks is going to go for 300k, no matter what I do to the inside (or backyard). [link] [comments] |
| Video tours of other agents listings Posted: 01 May 2020 08:58 AM PDT I'm brainstorming ways to help set my social media apart from your average agent. Most listing tours I see are just pans across the room with generic music playing in the background. I'd like to do a short, 3-5 minute-ish tour of the home with me showing/talking about the home. At this point of just starting out and not having any listings, would it be legal/beneficial to make these tours of listing by other agents from my brokerage? I would get their and the homeowners permission. My thought is that if someone sees the video and likes the home, they might reach out to me to see the listing. Let me know what you think.

| Ever take a listing from a colleague? Posted: 30 Apr 2020 10:00 PM PDT I tried to post the screenshot but here goes: (message to Listing Agent, Broker, Seller per Broker's request) "Hi all, This message is in regard to the listing for sale at [redacted] from owner []. Per [] communications (calls and a voicemail) with me commencing approximately a few weeks ago and as recently as Saturday, Wednesday and Thursday, she has not been able to get in touch with the listing agent [r] to withdraw her listing from the market." Seller: "Hope you call soon is no 530 and I haven't heard from him so I'm hoping he'll call I always get disappointed you know what it's called I said that's why am calling you back" I can't stress enough that this client has been calling me since February every time they can't get in touch with the LA. I scouted the client (cold-call) in January but didn't have my license at the time. I also have never hinted to them to communicate or contact me re: the listing, he went to visit them and get an agreement without telling me til afterwards. Skeevy to take it over once they're ready to go back on the market? Tldr: client unhappy, wants to cancel listing with a colleague, strongly considering listing through me. Thoughts?

| Any buyer benefit to excluding my house listing from the MLS? Posted: 30 Apr 2020 05:03 PM PDT Edit: should have said "seller benefit." Hey folks, I'm considering working with a realtor. He has the normal boilerplate disclosures, but at the very end of the initial paperwork is an MLS exclusion form. I don't see any specific buyer benefit to doing this. If we don't like the offers we get from MLS, we can just ignore them. This seems to only benefit the realtor, who has a bunch of other in-network agents this would presumably be exclusive to, at least initially. Am I missing something? Is there some kind of time limit I don't understand that prevents us from listing on the MLS in 2 days as the form mentions? [link] [comments] |
| Are you zooming with your team daily? Why or why not? And do you zoom while cold (warm) calling? Posted: 30 Apr 2020 08:05 PM PDT We do, some days I simply don't want to get on zoom haha so seeing what others are doing [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 30 Apr 2020 06:10 PM PDT I wanted to get a property valuation to cancel my private mortgage insurance but I am afraid the value of my house has gone down because of the current market situation. Any thoughts? [link] [comments] |
| If I can only pick one CTA for my homepage, which should I choose? Posted: 30 Apr 2020 05:40 PM PDT Just curious what you all might think, I'd love to hear from non-Realtors as well. I will have individual pages for buyers and sellers, but I'm struggling with what CTA should go one home page. TIA!
