Are the holiday's around the corner at your house? Is your dining room ready?

I’m not a big fan of Halloween so the end of October gets me thinking about Thanksgiving! To me Thanksgiving is a feeling; it is a mood swing that comes over me, one which I love…

When I think about Thanksgiving, I first picture my Grandma’s house specifically her dining room table and side buffet, the room this furniture sat in was huge in her first house, not so much after they downsized and moved… Grandma’s new house was a small ranch with a small dining room where each Thanksgiving we filled every inch of it with family and food!

Oh if dining rooms could talk, the stories they could tell about the families who live there are probably endless!

I put together a few of our homes for sale and their dining rooms, if having a family Thanksgiving in a new dining room is in your thoughts... please give us a call, text or email we would love to help you fill up the house with family this Holiday Season.

If you purchased a home with Realty Five of Defiance this year we are so happy for you, how exciting it must be to know the Holiday's are around the corner and you get to spend them in your new home! ENJOY...

Counting my blessings, Thanksgiving is almost here! Karol

So... what is a FSBO?

What is a FSBO in the Defiance area Real Estate?

A FSBO is a seller of a home who is trying to sell there property themselves, or as we call it in the Real Estate Industry: For Sale By Owner

There is nothing wrong with trying to sell a property on your own as long as a person knows how to! It would be like asking me to write up an Insurance Claim... me? No I can't do that, but my professional Insurance Representative could!

My top 5 items of importance when selling a home, farm, land or business:

1) Price it right, do your homework to see what the current market is doing, research what buyers are willing to pay for the property, using updated comparable solds is a must!

2) Stage it, properly staged homes sell faster, make sure the property's interior & exterior is completely "buyer ready"

3) Marketing, most people start there shopping on the Internet... market / advertise all over the Internet using photos, videos and good solid information about the home, farm, land or business you are advertising.

4) Prepare property disclosures and lead base paint disclosures to accommodate Ohio Real Estate Laws and procedures...

5) Find buyers!
