Excerpt from an Executive Summary of a Recent Market Analysis

Real estate News

This is somewhat interesting as my analysis of a homes position in the Gorge. This home has been marketed by the owners for quite sometime with no results. They asked me to perform an analysis which I happily did and I thought that I would share my thought process in this paper. What you see below is a step by step answer to the questions that the seller/owner wanted to know:

 1. The price range would be $180k to $190k – I say this because I may have a buyer that might pay $190k and if he is not interested anymore it would be less. The market information in the packet tells us that the market has disintegrated dramatically mainly from the CAM homes on Island Way going back to the banks and the banks having a “Fire” sale. You are and have been competing with larger square footage homes with more baths, bedrooms and much newer. This has affected your marketability immensely and continues to do so. Even more recently there were two homes one on Amber Way the other on Aria Way that went almost as they hit the multiple listing service and with multiple offers. This was due to nothing more than price and that price being very low for the product.

2. The fee for services would be 7% because you want all the other agents out there to pay attention to your product and with others paying 6% or even 5% this is one competitive advantage that you desperately need. In addition I will get your property exposed to all the major real estate search sites and search engines such as Windermere.com, Trulia, Zillow, Yahoo, Craigslist and Google.

 3. The listing agreement duration can be anything that you want. I typically list for six months, but sometimes will go ninety days. If you wanted to get out of the agreement early my policy is to grant your wish.

 4. The properties that I personally sold in North Bonneville were the following: a. 620 E Shahala – 3 bedroom, 2.1 bath with 2096 square feet at $282,000. b. 1229 Island Way – 4 bedroom, 2.1 bath with 2156 square feet at $195,000. 5. Other data would include out of the comps listed I broke out the one levels which there were four:

This tells us that the one level homes went for a higher price but most of them were of a newer age. Please look for the reports coming your way that present more detail for your study and discussion. I would love to come and visit to discuss the data if you would like. Just email me or give me a call.

Thanks again for the opportunity, Bob

  1. lol several of the opinions people make are such stoner remarks, more often than not i wonder if they truly read the article and items before posting or if perhaps they just simply look at the title of the blog post and prepare the initial thought that comes to mind. in any case, it is really good to browse intelligent commentary every now and then instead of the same exact, outdated blog vomit that i typically see on the internet i’m going to take up a smattering of rounds of zynga poker have a pleasant day

  2. Thanks I think Facebook Chip!!

  3. hello impressive little journal ya have there :-) I work with the very same web theme on my own and yet for whatever nutty reason it seems to reload more quickly on your blog eventhough yours is carrying a lot more multimedia. Are you currently making use of some plug ins or widgets which speed it up? If you could quite possibly share the titles so that I would be able to use these in my websites so twilight breaking dawn followers could watch twilight breaking dawn online trailers and clips a lot quicker I’d always be grateful – thanks in advance :)

  4. Thank you very much Kristen!!
