Selling Your East End / North Fork of Long Island Home

May 14th, 2009 category: Buyers, Sellers

With a market presenting challenges to sellers of homes on the east end (Hamptons, North fork) of Long Island, the more information, the better.

The following link provides ways to improve the home selling experience, with tips on how to view the current market in a way that will offer advantages; the message is clear: DON’T TAKE IT PERSONALLY!

Here is a sampling from the article…

Amid falling home prices, near-record-low mortgage rates and even an $8,000 tax perk from Uncle Sam, prospective buyers have plenty of reasons to dive into the real-estate market.

Despite some encouraging housing data, buyers will continue to have the upper hand in this home-selling season. But that doesn’t mean your house won’t sell; it just means you’ll have to make smarter moves to land a buyer. With the help of several experts, U.S. News & World Report compiled a list of seven home-selling moves to avoid this spring.

Buyers are not going to ignore a statistical inundation- they are aware that this is “their” market, to the extent that negotiation is an expectation.

Rather than viewing offers as an insult, it would behoove sellers to take a more clinical posture, while maintaining their own parameters- in other words, if you get an offer that doesn’t work, a counter offer is far more productive than a dismissive attitude.
