Frustrated? Let’s Try This Approach

For Today’s Buyer, it is tough. The Market remains tight, and nothing at the present moment is showing that it will loosen any time soon.

Yes, some houses are sitting for a while, while others are getting 20 offers in a weekend. And winning a bid when you are 1 of 20 is a nightmare. So the struggle is very real and very frustrating.

Last month, I sat down with a client to have a ❤️ heart-to-heart. Since time was not in his favor, we needed a new approach. What did that look like: He needed to look at properties that were winnable.

What do Winnable Homes look like:

  • Not built within the last 30 years
  • Not in pristine condition
  • Need about 10-20K of home improvements

Hey, I get it…it doesn’t sound very appealing at first. And it didn’t sit well with him until we started talking through the details. Like many, he was looking for a move-in-ready home. With this new approach, he could still get that move-in ready home, and it would be exactly what he was looking for.

Seem like a pipe dream? Let me assure you that it is possible when you have the right partner with experience in all aspects of the industry.
