Your knowledge of the area and contact information made our decisions so much simpler. It was really a pleasure and a lot of fun working with you to find our home. Thanks again for everything!

Sarasota | FL | The Inside Scoop on Buying a Resort Property | Location

Posted on July 29, 2010 by larryandann

Acquiring a vacation/resort home is a major element of the American Dream.

It can provide untold benefits in enjoyment with loved ones and tremendous relief of the stresses of our everyday lives. It can also be an unused luxury and a drain on your resources if purchased totally on emotion without adequate research

The data in this series should help you get the most for your money whether it be a condo or a castle and an investment of a few thousand to a few million dollars!

Location! Location! Location!

Geographic Location

Buying in a location that is accessible (a comfortable distance easily traveled) for you is important. A property you use will give you many benefits; a property you do not use will just give you expenses.

No vacation home can give you any enjoyment if you do not use it. The longer it takes to plan a getaway and travel back and forth, the less likely it is you’ll enjoy the home

Sarasota, Florida is accessable, close to airports and major highways.

It is one of the most beautiful locations in the USA. Magnificent Beaches, Arts and Entertainment are all here in this Paradise on the Gulf Coast!

Sarasota | FL | Real Estate | Positioning Your Property For Sale in a Changing Market

Posted on July 6, 2010 by larryandann

Positioning Your Property For Sale in  a Changing Market!

Your largest investment for your family and yourself deserves the best!

The 5 Factors in the Marketing Position of a Any Property

You Control 4 of These!

  •   The Price   Buyers Compare Homes on the Market
  • The Condition
  • The Location
  • The Terms
  • The Agent …….Your Agent Does make a Difference!

  Selling Your Property is MY Priority!

Same size, same area, same price, the one in the best condition will probably sell first

Same condition, same area, same price, the largest one will probably sell first

Same size, same price, same condition, the best location will probably sell first

Same size, same area, same condition, the best price will probably sell first

The seller sets the price of the home…

…but ultimately, the buyer determines the value.

Results of a Slowdown

Volume of active listings increase
Days on the Market increase
Foreclosures & REO’s increase
Buyers will demand value

Positioning for a Changing Market

Look Better         Be Better        Be Perceived as Better

 Appeal                Inspected               Best Value

Marketing           Repairs made           Best Feel

What I will do for You

An Updated Market Analysis so your property is priced correctly

A Visual Tour of your property to increase visibility

Create a Marketing Plan that will benefit your needs
