Have a bad experience with a real estate agent fsbohomz? I'm truly sorry. Bad agents abound and give good agents a bad name.

I market my home evaluations by NOT bugging the hell out of people. I figure if I provide a good evaluation, and those people end up needing a real estate agent, they'll call. I don't need, nor desire, to bug anyone.

Superior customer service and delivery will reel in the business. I don't have time to bug the hell out of anyone.

I don't do fridge magnets or calendars. I do have a bunch of pens though. Want one?

I don't believe a thing real estate agents say. I don't hate them just the tricky and unexperienced ones. Which in my opinion is most of them. Take the "no obligation market evaluation" for example, the oldest and most unoriginal term you will see advertised. Do they think people are stupid? The real definition should be, “yes I will come over to your home, tell you what it’s worth, then I will bug the hell out of you until you list it with me". In the meantime, they will send you some “awesome” fridge magnets, calendars and pencils just so you don’t them. I have written at length about this, I'm NOT selling anything, just a frank, real world discussion.

Christine –

If you want to email me the address (or tax number) I'll be happy to do a CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) and show you the likely market price for your lot. No cost or obligation. Well, that is if you're in the Phoenix area. If you're not, any decent Realtor should be willing to give you a free CMA.

Caution should be used with any unsolicited inquiry. Typically these come from investors attempting a "lowball" offer. *Never* ever just accept one of these without getting an idea of the true value of your property!

Regards,

Jay

In the MLS last year around this time there were 5000 homes for sale,

nowadays there are over 24,000 homes for sale. It appears that the

overflow of investors in Arizona and particularly in Phoenix jaded

the market making it really a buyer's market.

Phoenix Real Estate Market Shift!!

Jay writes “After months of a frenzied buying craze, the Phoenix real estate market appears to have shifted toward a buyer’s market.
Notice I said TOWARD a buyer’s market. That doesn’t mean we are IN a buyer’s market (yet).
On a scale …

I agree today's posting about the "shift" in the housing market locally. I believe the market will stay strong & return to neutral slowly if folks don't panic. In addition, I believe a fair share of people purchasing $350,000.00 home's who barely qualified this past year or 2 ago will eventually find themselves back in the rental market. Many people "overspent" on their new homes to look good and did not consider the long-term financial consequences. This will provide an increase in availability of resale homes in the next one to three years! As far as LAND goes…definitely a great investment. My favorite part is the low maintenance. I do believe Tonopah, Coolidge, Florence, Prescott, and the rest of the west and east valley are Overpriced. Investors look for good buys and are moving their money down south to Cochise County where you can purchase land for about $4000.00 & up PER ACRE. That beats 300,000.00 per acre in Queen Creek! It's getting HOT down there so I don’t expect these prices to stay low in Cochise County for very long. I have spent months personally researching this. Between Benson & Douglas there is a HUGE increase in sales in the Pearce, Sunizona, Sunsites, Ash Creek, Sunsites II, McNeal & Double Adobe areas. These are near Tombstone & Bisbee. Bisbee is the County Seat. -Devon
