I Will Sell a Home for Work Force Hero or Veteran Facing a Hardship FREE Pro Bono

I Will Sell a Home for Work Force Hero or Veteran Facing a Hardship FREE Pro Bono between now and Memorial Day in 2013: Giving Back To a Work Force Hero or Veteran in Need.

There is one thing I am going to do in my little corner of the world to make a difference to a Work Force Hero or Veteran between now and Memorial Day in 2013. I will list and sell one Work Force Hero or Veteran house this year pro bono, zero commission.

They have to have a special need of some sort (it can be financial) so long there is the possibility of an equity advantage. I’ll get it done for this Work Force Hero or Veteran gratis as my way of giving back. I can do this for one Work Force Hero or Veteran (or their survivors), and it can be in any of the following counties: Knox, Loudon, Sevier, Anderson.
There is minimal small print to the offer, possibility of an equity advantage because I can’t guarantee that a buyer brokerage will be cool with forgoing their end, but there will be no listing commission.

If you know of a Work Force Hero or Veteran who needs to sell and a pro bono arrangement would make a difference between hardship or not, please let me know via phone or email. 865-235-1520 CLICK Here http://justsoldknoxville.com

Buyers are fussy about move-in ready homes.

Buyers are fussy about 'move-in ready' homes. "finding a move-in ready home is important.". This means meeting Current Trends as well as the Buyer’s expectations. Or are buyers simply reflecting market realities?

Flaws that today's buyers might not overlook •The kitchen appliances are by different manufacturers. •There are no granite counters — despite the fact that the house is a modest-priced starter home. •A carpet needs replacing or the color doesn't match their furniture. •Wall colors are "wrong," such as white, when for today's tastes, they should be a warmer hue. 95 percent of buyers aren't looking for a fixer-upper...

The real estate profession is extremely competitive, and listings are hard to get. This leads many agents to attempt to "buy listings" by promising a seller that they can get a higher price for them than what other agents can.
This is a real dangerous game that almost always ends up disastrous for a seller. The best REALTORS don't play the game of trying to "buy" listings.
