Selling Your House'

PRICES ARE UP
In the midst of bad economic news and
reports of flat market conditions, it may
be surprising to hear that "Prices are
UP!" But it is true. For the majority of
people selling their homes today, prices
are well above what they paid for the
property originally. They may not make
quite the "killing" possible in previous
years, but there's still a healthy
appreciation above purchase price.
For the people who must move often,
the news is not quite so good. To sell a
house today that you bought a year or two
ago may result in a loss. Dollar values are
depressed at the moment; the seller
caught in this squeeze should think of the
current transaction as just one in a chain
of buyings and sellings of homes. No doubt
there have been increases since the first
home was purchased, and there will be
increases again; this sale is just a
breathing space, an opportunity NOT to
worry about capital gains and taxes.
No matter how long you've owned your
home, you want to maximize its value, to
get as much out of it as possible. Statistics
indicate that the seller who utilizes the
services of a real estate professional will
realize more on a sale, despite
commissions, because the real estate
agents gets a better price -- and sooner.
Maximize the potential of YOUR real
estate. List with...
