The Prep P



In these uncertain economic times... I cannot tell you how upsetting it for me to hear people buy into this garbage. What is so uncertain about them? People will always need to eat and have a place to live. Those two things alone will keep parts of our economy moving along as they always have. Think about all the other things people need and you will find ways in which our economy is not uncertain. Lets call these times challenging. Like any challenge, this one too can be met.
As a seller in this market you simply need to meet the challenge. The Three P's, Price, Prep and Plan are more important than ever. Prep however is becoming even more important. Money that you put into your home to prep it for sale is not money you can add to the asking price but the best way to keep potential buyers from discounting your asking price.
No matter what your asking price, many buyers will see the price, see the deficiencies and do the math. Limit the deficiencies and limit the discounting that buyers will consider when they write an offer.
