Market Update for Our Sellers

Karen & Todd send our sellers an update on market conditions every two weeks. Here is an excerpt of that e-mail.

Recently, complete strangers have been approaching me and asking about the market. They speak as if the market is a close relative of mine that just passed away. They walk up slowly, speak softly, and ask “How are you during this difficult time?” I let them know that we are optimistic about the future and realistic about the present. I let them know that we have been able to help 50 families so far in 2007. This is not a funeral procession; it’s just the new normal for the market. And in any market, there are opportunities. The Buckley Jolley Real Estate Team continues to keep our heads up and work harder than ever for our clients.

One of my seller clients asked me the other day, “Do you have any good news for me?” So, here goes…In the last 2 weeks two of our listings sold in less than 14 days on market! We’re proud of that and I know those sellers are excited. This dispels the thought that all listings will be on the market for a long time before they sell. The aforementioned sellers understood that pricing competitively was critical and they saw their strategy pay off.

I want to be talking about your SOLD story very soon! -Todd Buckley
