Raleigh Realtor Works to Help Sellers Maximize Their Selling Price and give New Buyers More Options

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Home inventory is low and mortgage rates are rising, making it the optimum time to sell at a premium and locate a good buy before Spring in 2019.

 

Raleigh Realtor® Michael Porter with Novus Home Quest, a division of Howard Perry and Walston, specializes in helping Raleigh, Cary, and Apex area homeowners successfully navigate the home sale or home buying process.  There are two specific programs that are very useful in today’s marketplace; the improve-it now, pay later property pre-listing program and the lease purchase program.

Unfortunately, many people struggle with maximizing the aesthetic appeal of their property because it is too expensive.  Removing walls, installing new cabinetry, painting and plumbing, the list goes on and on.  Fortunately, there is a solution to all of this: pre-listing home improvement services combined with payment deferment until closing!  What could be better!  You’ll get top dollar for your home and it will likely be on the market for days, not weeks or months.  Remember, all construction costs are deferred until closing.  You will avoid low ball offers. Imagine, your home fully updated with the latest styles and staging techniques, wowing buyers, and creating a nice check at settlement.

  • Lease to Own for Buyers

Perhaps you have found a home you like but aren’t quite ready to be a homeowner.  Maybe you’re not sure of the neighborhood or just have cold feet.  Now there is a lease purchase program which offers flexibility, choice, and control.  Sign up, lease for up to five years, purchase or walk away!  You can move out after 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 4 years, or 5 year.  Or you can purchase at a predetermined price.  Pets are welcomed.

  • Why Sell Now?

Don’t wait!  Michael Porter, lead Realtor® at Novus Home Quest explains that, for homeowners, now is the perfect time to sell their properties to maximize their investment return. Home inventory rates are low due to contractor’s unwillingness to hold inventory through the new year.  Once 2019 has begun, there will be a frenzy of building to load the inventory for spring.  This will make it more difficult to sell an existing home. Competition will be with busy contractors and also other home owners who “waited until spring” to list their home.  There are different ways to approach selling your home, but to sell your home fast, and for a good price, having a reputable real estate agent can make all the difference.

  • What a good real estate agent should offer the seller

There are several services that a real estate agent should be able to offer to make the process as smooth as possible.  If your agent has failed to mention a pre-listing home inspection, a detailed room by room improvement list, staging costs and schedules, and qualitatively explained the local market trends, be careful.  Making the decision to sell your home is a very personal decision, and for many, it can be a huge step. Having a reputable Raleigh real estate agent to guide you through the process, could be the difference between an average and a great selling experience (and it might save you a lot of money too). As a seller, you should have confidence that your real estate agent has superior local knowledge and is working in your best interest. Your agent should show commitment to getting you the best possible price for your home rather than selling it to the first person who makes an offer.

Raleigh NC Real Estate Agent, real estate agent raleigh ncYour Realtor® should demonstrate knowledge of the local market and neighborhoods, help advise and develop a strategy which includes being with you every step of the way, from setting the asking price to advertising your listing (which includes listing both on their own site and on other high traffic real estate websites) and get you all the way to a smooth and successful closing.  This same agent can also help you find your new dream home.

Raleigh Realtor Predicts Continued Growth of Home Values for 2018 & into 2019

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Real Estate Agent Raleigh NC

According to Raleigh Realtor, Michael Porter, “the city is tipped to be one of the top areas for real estate growth in the US due to rising home values, steady growth of residents’ incomes, a strong job market and comparatively low unemployment rates.”

Recently voted the best place to live in North Carolina and the best big city in the Southeast, Raleigh offers a city that is family-friendly with welcoming Southern charm and has been slowly transforming into an important technology hub with a number of large corporations making Raleigh their head office including Cisco Systems, IBM Corporation, and Fidelity Investments. It’s also the capital of North Carolina (known as the City of Oaks), and, with an estimated population of 438,000, is the 42nd most populated city in the US.

The wealth of the city is evident in the average incomes (over $30,000 per annum for Raleigh residents, almost $2500 more than the US average). The median household income is over $64,000 per year (over $15,000 more than the rest of North Carolina) which means that Raleigh represents a wealth of opportunity for real estate investments, both for sellers and buyers with a median home value of over $250,000 and the value of homes increasing over 5% every year (5.9% in the past year, with 5.3% increase predicted for next year.)
