Important factors to consider when selling your home

Here are a few important factors to consider when selling your home
Price and condition are the two most important factors in selling a home, even in a down market. The first step is to price your home correctly. Use comparative sales information from your agent, to objectively evaluate your home's worth. Second, go through the house and repair any obvious cosmetic defects that could deter a buyer.
In a down market, you may have to consider lowering your price and/or making a major repair, such as replacing a high ticket item, (ie:outdated boiler) in order to lure a buyer. Also, make sure that your home is getting the exposure it deserves through open houses, broker open houses, advertising, good signage and a listing on the local and international multiple listing service.

Attention Union Members

I recently attended a workshop by one of the major lenders in the mortgage world. Wells Fargo. They are offering a new mortgage loan that caught my interest. The Union Plus Mortgage Program.  It is in a nutshell a product that all union members and their families should consider.  As a teacher, union member  and a  realtor I was happy to see a program that offers a little extra for us.


Home financing benefits for Union Members and Their Families

All active and retired union members and their parents or children may be eligible for exclusive home financing benefits.

  • $500 Mortgage Gift award card
  • Exclusive mortgage assistance benefits (interest free loan or grants  if you go on strike, become disabled or unemployed)
  • $500 First-Time Home Buyer Award
Please shop around when selecting a mortgage company and contact your financial advisory before signing any documents locking you into a specific company or loan.  I have included the Wells Fargo link below, Happy Mortgage Shopping.
