			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are two key areas in getting results when it comes time to sell your home, pricing and packaging. You may think that once the home is conditioned and priced properly, that just about any agent can do the job. Well, I&#8217;d like to raise my hand and volunteer to explain why you need to be as careful about choosing your real estate agent as you are about choosing the price or staging efforts for your home.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With projected rising unemployment and declining core inflation through next year, Fannie Mae believes the Federal Reserve will leave interest rates unchanged until at least late 2010. In declaring the recession “unofficially” over, Fannie Mae’s monthly economics and mortgage market analysis predicts the economy will achieve reasonable growth in the fourth quarter of this year.</p>
<p>“The question is whether the growth will be durable, especially after policy supports stimulus and the inventory cycle wane,” its economists said. “Our forecast continues to show that growth is likely to moderate somewhat in the current quarter and early next year, before strengthening in late 2010.”</p>
<p>Home sales will rise 10 percent next year, though it forecasts mortgage debt outstanding will fall 1.7 percent in 2010. <strong>Locally, Wichita saw an increase in home sales during October</strong> &#8211; the first monthly rise in more than two years. Fannie Mae (NYSE: FNM) says an excess amount of inventory will continue t o weigh on the housing market in 2010. While homeowner vacancies remain below the record set in late-2008, they remain much higher than the long-term average, it says.</p>
<p> With the extension of the first time homebuyers tax credit until April, and the expansion of the credit to include many buyers who are not first time buyers, home sales are expected to continue to benefit. Sales of existing <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Viagra Jelly">Viagra Jelly</a>  homes jumped 9.4 percent in September, according to the National Association of Realtors, to the highest level in more than two years.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Selling a property? Most people selling a property want to know&#8230; How long will it take to sell my home? <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Kamagra Gold">Kamagra Gold</a>  Some properties sell in a few days, others may take several months. By recognizing some key factors that influence marketing a home, you can get significant control over market time.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>LOCATION &#8211; LOCATION &#8211; LOCATION</strong>&#8230; Location is the single greatest factor affecting the value of most homes. Desirability of a neighborhood and its school system is basic to a property&#8217;s fair market value.</li>
<li><strong>COMPETITION</strong>&#8230; Buyers compare your property against homes for sale in an area, homes currently listed in the area, and quality of homes in the area.</li>
<li><strong>TIMING</strong>&#8230; The real estate market may reflect a &#8220;buyers&#8221; or “sellers” market. Market conditions cannot be manipulated; an individually tailored marketing plan of action must be developed for each individual property.</li>
<li><strong>CONDITION</strong>&#8230; The property condition will affect price and speed of sale. Optimizing physical appearance and advance preparation for marketing maximized value.</li>
<li><strong>TERMS</strong>&#8230; The more terms available, the larger the market, the quicker the sale, and the higher the price. Terms structured to meet your objectives are important to successful marketing.</li>
<li><strong>PRICE</strong>&#8230; If the property is not priced correctly, a sale may be delayed or prevented. Having a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) done on your home assists you in determining the best possible price base on all of the above factors. Most Real Estate professionals offer a CMA report at no cost to you. </li>
</ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How would a prospective buyer view your home? That&#8217;s the first thing you should ask yourself before putting your home on the market.</p>
<p>A few small changes can make a big difference.</p>
<ul>
<li>Is it cluttered? Remove photographs and small items from tabletops; put away kitchen appliances and other items on counter tops and tables; organize closets and cabinets; and remove furniture so rooms look bigger.</li>
<li>Does your yard look messy? Neaten up the lawn and clean drain gutters.</li>
<li>Is your home welcoming? Make your front entry attractive by painting the door; hanging a wreath; installing outdoor lighting to make your home attractive in the evening; and sweeping the driveway.</li>
<li>Does your home smell good? When prospective buyers come to call, bake bread or simmer some vanilla or cinnamon-scented water on the stove.</li>
<li>Does your home look dark? Take down heavy drapes and let the sun shine in.</li>
<li>Does your home look appealing? Buy some live plants and paint dingy walls. Preparing your home for viewing may result in a better price and faster turnover.</li>
</ul>
<p>Most importantly, homeowners should clean everything from their ovens to their window dressings. A multipurpose cleaner like OxiClean Versatile Stain Remover powder can be used to clean siding, <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Cialis Professional">Cialis Professional</a>  gutters, unfinished decks, Venetian blinds, garbage disposals and stained counter tops.</p>
<p>Make sure your home is spotless for prospective buyers. Clean everything from windows and window coverings to gutters.</p>
