From For Sale to Sold in Under 60 Days

None of us is immune from the news being broadcast every day.  The talking heads of the media have had a laser sharp focus on the economy and the real estate industry, mostly forecasting doom and gloom and making people nervous about their futures.

What the media forgets is that people will always need a place to live - a roof over their heads and a place to call home.  The changes in the real estate market on the West Bank of New Orleans simply mean that qualified home buyers have many, many (did I mention many?) options when choosing which roof it will be. 

All of those choices allow buyers to select the best of the best for their new home - and that’s exactly what they are doing.  I recently listed a beautiful house in Gretna for a seller who did all of the right things to prepare their home for sale.  Combine the preparation with an individual property website, a virtual tour, video, and marketing to other West Bank agents and what was the result? 

The house went from for sale to SOLD in only 53 days!
