Real Estate Myths

As I think a lot clearer at this +Starbucks Coffee in this fresher air of Portland, Oregon. I unfortunately had to unfollow +MarketWatch this week after their terrible comments about "marriage going out of fashion". Their relationship status must be "It's complicated."  I'm sure they were trying to get more publicity on their +Facebook page. It made me steam for a bit and then I realized that I shouldn't believe everything I see on the Internet. DUH!!! As skeptical as I can be, I can also be vulnerable to believing what I read. When one door closes the other one opens so I followed the DogLoversClubUSA. This was definetly a new level of dog loving for me.


Since Marketwatch tried creating a myth I am going to give you my updated list of Real Estate Myths:


1) I don't have to be in your area to sell your house. I understand the market and put a lot of research and anaylsis into pricing your home. Anyone who tells you they are an area specialist means they have sold in your area, but it doesn't mean they are fit to sell your home.


2) Zillow's zestimates are very inaccurate. Their data is usually very unreliable as well. If you want to know what's trustworthy, send me a private message and I will give you a FREE compartive market analysis .


3) If your selling in this market and an agent tells you they can get the same price as a comparable that has multiple upgrades in the neighborhood. WRONG! If you think some repairs need to be done, we should fix them before we go on the market.




Til next time. Thanks for listening. Cheers to the unfashionables who are married, life partners, its complicated, divorced, and/or single. Hope I didn't miss anyone.
