As Realtors, we tell sellers all the time to look at their homes with buyer’s eyes. What does that mean exactly? When you are selling your home, walk through it with a critical eye.

Sellers should also be honest with themselves about other critical factors that influence a buyer’s decision like location, size, features, and price.

I was talking with the good people from Shea homes the other day and they find themselves in an interesting predicament.

The question now becomes: ‘What things do you sacrifice and what characteristics are critical for a good investment?’

In recent months, I have spoken to quite a few people that are concerned with keeping their expenses low in this economic environment. After all, it’s a smart practice in case the economy has a relapse, you lose a job, or you have some unexpected expenses.

Wow, what a hangover. And I am not talking about the New Years Eve Party, but rather, the last year in real estate. I feel like someone hit me over the head with a lock box and I can’t take enough Advil to make the headache go away.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times; it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness; it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity; it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had everything before us, we had nothing before us; we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going the other way.”
