Dallas Area Homes for Sale Guide | Taking a Home Seller’s Temperature
How do you know if a seller is truly serious about selling her home? What’s the motivation? Is the seller being transferred by the company? Does she want to buy a bigger home or down size to a smaller home? Or could it be that she just wants to see what a buyer is willing to pay for the house?
Normally in this situation, the seller is almost always inclined to price the house at the highest price without knowledge of the current market conditions. If you are selling your home and this is your scenario, then I encourage you to stop. This is an invitation to disaster for all parties involved in the transaction. If a seller prices her home too high, the buyers that have been looking for that particular home will quickly understand that the property is over-priced. Keep in mind that buyers are quite savvy these days. They work closely with their Realtors and the internet and know exactly what they can get for the money. Therefore, when listing a home for sale, spend some time with your Realtor. Let her show you the sold comparables in the neighborhood and guide you to a realistic sales price. This can bring about multiple offers which most often will get the seller to her full-priced offer.

About: I am a native Texan and am married to my college sweetheart and business partner, Ray Rice. Ray is the broker/owner of Rice Capital Mortgage. Our work together over the years has evolved into a full-service real estate team. I drive the real estate side, and Ray operates the lending and finance side. Through our partnership, we have achieved a great deal of success even throughout the sluggish market. Joy Rice Realty Group consists of several team members working together to get the job accomplished, and our clients have the benefit of a team for the price of only one agent. Their needs are always our primary focus. The team includes a Listing Coordinator, Contract Administrator, one Key Assistant, Marketing Coordinator, and an Accredited Staging Professional.
Through the development and integration of team members, I now have the ability to focus all of my attention on the home buying and selling needs of my clients while Ray focuses on finding the right financing. Joy Rice Realty Group provides seamless service to our clients at all times. We offer the power of a team for the price of only one. We pride ourselves on the fact that many of our clients also become our friends..
