Well things are picking up a bit in the Phoenix Arizona Metro (Maricopa County) including Scottsdale real estate market as we move into March 2024.There has been an increase in the number of nNew listings and Active listings at the end of February 2024 when compared to February 2023. However there was a decrease in the number of homes sold and under contract when compared to the same time last year. Mortgage rates are higher and the average sales price has increased.Note, the average sales price in February was $679K up 13% from the prior year, however this is skewed because of higher end homes pushing the average up. Perhaps a more meaningful number is the "median" home price of about $430K with half selling above that price and half selling below that price.When you are ready to buy o...

As a seller or a buyer, this fact may be of interest:81% of the sellers and 71% of the buyer’s only interviewed one agent whom they subsequently hired (Source NAR)There are several possible reasons why interviewing only one agent happens: A sales referral from family and friends which NAR’s indicated accounted for 43% of buyers Signage in front of a home or vacant land for sale Networking within various organizations such as Chambers of Commerce, etc. Additional data from NAR research suggested 41% of recent buyers started their search on line while only 20% of buyers first contacted a real estate agent.Yes, it does take more than wishes or luck for any real estate agent to become the exclusive agent for home or vacant land (dirt) sellers or buyers. Real estate agents are licensed throu...

With all the angst from the settlement of the NAR lawsuits, there is a lot of change forthcoming being forecasted by so called experts.  For those who may have not read this book, Change or Die, the first time when I reviewed this book in May of 2023, maybe now is a good time to re-read it or read it for the first time.The author Alan Deutschman shared his research through various case studies about how human beings are resistant to change even though we as human beings have that ability. In Introduction Deutschman cited research heart patients, ex-convicts and autoworkers and then introduced the 3 "Rs" or 3 Keys to change: Relate Repeat Reframe In Chapter One, Deutschman presented the case studies of Heart Patients, Criminals and Workers he cited in the Introduction. One of the most in...

Some recent data from NAR suggested 81% of the sellers and 71% of the buyer’s only interviewed one agent whom they subsequently hired.  Possibly the reasons are several such as referrals from family and friends, a property down the street just sold or a for sale sign caught the consumer’s attention or they met the real estate agent at a local event.With these staggering statistics, how do you leverage your opportunities to make a positive impression with potential clients during your first interaction? And that is the question to be answered.First, do not spew what you do.  People buy from people they know and trust. Professionals do not spew that is what unlicensed unprofessional salespeople do. Second, demonstrate emotional intelligence while educating the potential client or clients....

Yesterday when walking a 40 acre parcel with a buyer, we exchanged numerous laughs as we looked for the ribbon markers at the property corners.  Unfortunately, we only found one, but it was sooo tiny we would have missed it. We both laughed together wondering if the listing agent could have made the ribbon any smaller. Being able to laugh with a client and have that laughter acceptable is very gratifying.The word sweet has synonyms which include pleasant, pleasing, agreeable, delightful satisfying, gratifying, acceptable, entertaining, and inviting.Thinking of past experiences many of these words have always been present.My goal as a professional real estate agent is to be sweet. This weekend I am driving 105 miles to the next county to the south to meet with a seller who is elderly. Th...
