Rates and Home Inventory are low, low…
So the closing that was supposed to close
last Tuesday that had the “shadow” on the wall did close on Friday! We cut a 2’x2’ square out of the eating area
and the “shadow” was indeed stains from cat urine. While I’m glad it wasn't mold…I do not want
to meet the cat(s) that made that mess…let’s just say the smell was ripe.
The recent listing that sold in 8 days hit
a road block…low appraisal. So we are
working our way through that process. I’m
not sure if the deal can be saved but we shall see.
With the move of the previously mentioned
closing I had two closings on Friday. In
fact I had to leave one early to make it to the next. It all worked out though and those two
clients love their new homes.
The inspection of the home my client is
buying that was living with their parents turned up a chimney that needs work
and a roof that is at the end of its life.
So we have contractors out giving estimates on the repairs. Hopefully the seller’s will adjust the price
or give money back at closing to address these bigger ticket items. We are to close in a week so we are getting
close!
I had a new listing come on the market yesterday…a town home in West Carmel. There is only
one other property for sale in that development so I hope this one sells
quickly. With the home now on the
market, my clients and I went out last night to look at potential homes to
buy. We really didn't find “the” home
but they were able to see what’s available to them…they might want to bump up
their budget they said.
The clients building new construction are
ready to move forward. We are trying to
set up a time early next week to sign the listing paperwork and get their home on
the market in the next two weeks.
Last week, as I’m coaching my son’s 7v7
Spring football team, one of my former clients and parents of one of my players
says they have friends who are considering selling. “How’s the inventory out there” he asks…”very
low” I say. I’m meeting with that lead
next week and they are already working with my mortgage provider!
Broken record alert…I’m very honored with
all the activity and am ready for more so if you know anyone getting ready to
buy or sell, please give them my information or ask if they’d like me to call
them.
Rates for the week
