When Bad Real Estate Listing Pics Attack!

When you hire TRUE Real Estate Professionals like Rebarchick Real Estate, you get true professional pictures for your listing for FREE! After all, great pictures of your home help us increase the number of potential buyers that want to visit the home. Bad pictures equal bad traffic. Over the years we’ve seen some pretty terrible pictures so we decided to create “When Listing Pics Attack” on social media through Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

Sellers should know that hiring the wrong representation can scare buyers from wanting to see your home after seeing just a few of the pictures online. Just like Head & Shoulders tells us, “You only get one chance to make a first impression”. What kind of confidence can you have in your Realtor with negotiating if they can’t get the pictures right?

Below are actual pictures from recent listings:

Feeling HOT HOT HOT

If you haven’t already heard, it’s a Seller’s Market that’s HOT HOT HOT right now! With the right representation (yours truly) it seems as though listings are going into contract within 48 hours after hitting the market.  We continue to have a shortage of inventory and the demand is outpacing the supply.

The photo for this blog is from one of our latest listings. We had 10 offers in less than 24 hours and almost immediately opened escrow!

We’ve found that a properly priced home is seeing multiple offers that could actually drive the price up. That strategy has helped us avoid overpricing the home causing it to sit on the market longer than expected.  A house that sits on the market causes some Buyers to ask, “What’s wrong with it that it’s been on the market (blank) days?” …and they’re absolutely right. If the house needs some TLC, you’ll need to properly price it. If it’s absolutely turnkey, you’ll need to properly price it. If it’s somewhere in the middle, you’ll need to properly price it.

Let us help you with coming up with a proper pricing and maximize the profit when selling your home. Contact us anytime. (702) 501-8726 or rebarchick@gmail.com

Waiting for Spring to Sell is a Mistake

Selling a Las Vegas home in winter

Luckily our winter climate here in Southern Nevada is pretty tame compared to the rest of the Country. Yes we get to freezing temperatures at night but those daytime highs of 50 degrees are hard to beat! It’s no wonder that tourism doesn’t seem to slow down during the winter here.

Which also means that there are opportunities to sell this time of year too.

As Top REALTORS® we work with Buyers and Sellers ALL YEAR LONG. There’s always a reason for real estate to be bought and sold everyday of every month. From looking to upsize/downsize, a job relocation, low interest rates, tax implications or 1031 exchanges, there are dozens of times when a winter real estate deal has to happen.

When listing a property with us during the winter months we’ve found that there isn’t much of a “Buyer Drop”. Our marketing efforts still bring the Buyers to the home. The same basics that we stress in the spring should be applied in the winter. Keep the home clean and in order, landscaping cared for, have it properly priced, and of course have your home listed by us.

A recent YAHOO REAL ESTATE Article contributed by Zillow supports my point that Buyers are looking all year long. Contact Us Today to get your free no-obligation market analysis of your home. Don’t wait and miss out on the opportunity to Sell!

Jumping Off the 2nd Floor Deck for a Seven Hills Real Estate Client

When it comes to satisfying my Las Vegas valley real estate clients, I’ll do pretty much whatever it takes. I’ll go above and beyond to leave a smile on every client’s face.

Want me to find you a palatial Spanish eclectic dream home in Henderson? I’ll do it.

Need me to get you the best possible deal on a family home with a big back yard, within a mile of a dog park, in Summerlin? No problem.

Want to sell your home fast, for top dollar… and then watch me launch myself off of the 2nd-story deck into the pool? Consider it done!

jumping into a Seven Hills, Henderson, NV pool from the top deck!

Recently I had a listing on European Drive, a great street in Seven Hills, Henderson, NV. It was a beautiful remodeled house that I knew could fetch a fantastic price. In fact, I believed it so strongly that I made a guarantee to the Owner:

I would sell it quickly and for the maximum possible price… and then I would jump into the home’s pool from the top deck.

As you can see from the photo above, I’m a man of my word!

As soon as we had confirmation that the sale had gone through, I ran up to the 2nd floor deck, climbed over the railing, and jumped off.

Maybe not the smartest or safest thing for a Vegas real estate agent to be doing. But, to be honest, I didn’t need that much convincing. Yes, I was happy to have delivered for my client… but it was also over 100 degrees that day so the water felt GREAT!

😀

Here are a couple of “after shots”…

hitting the water
Great splash!
cooling off
Feels great!

Want to see which crazy thing I’ll do next? Then follow the Rebarteam on Facebook and watch this blog!!

New Video Testimonial: Seven Hills Home Sold in 32 Hours… and For a Great Price!

Backyard with pool of Seven Hills home we sold fast!Everyone knows that Henderson, NV real estate is hot right now… but sometimes even we are surprised at what can be accomplished with the right strategy, all-out effort, and a good client/REALTOR® combo!

Case in point: last month we were able to help one of our clients sell his Seven Hills home in less than 2 days, and for the top price any house in his neighborhood had sold for in the past year. We were able to pull this off by sticking to the same proven “game plan” we use with nearly every new project:

Intense Research + Clear Communication + Efficient, All-Out Effort = Fast Results! 

As you’ll see in the testimonial video below, we walked our client through all the necessary steps in the sales process and then made the sale happen in a matter of hours. Buying or selling a Las Vegas valley home can be a complicated, complex process… but we always do out best to minimize stress and maximize results!

“I was over-impressed…”

As you can see, we go out of our way to explain every detail, including properly filling out all required paperwork, researching and showing recent comparables (comps) to establish an accurate appraisal, and marketing the home in the most effective ways possible.

When things come together amazing results can occur… like selling a home for max price in less than 2 days!  🙂
