Selling Homes FAST!

Aug 14, 2007

Longer market times, lower prices and expired listings capture the headlines today! Increasing foreclosures and collapsing financial institutions are causing sellers to wonder whether they will be able to sell their homes at all!

Jeff Scislow, Minnesota’s #1 RE/MAX Realtor, posted a 94% Listings Sold percentage in the 1st six months of 2007. This compares with the industry average of just 35%. His average time on the market for these sales was just over 30 days, with a 97.75% of listing price received! The industry averages in these categories are 142 days on market and a mere 94.5% of list price.

“Many of our listings have been selling in the first couple weeks on market this year due to a number of factors that have been incorporated into our marketing,” Scislow said. “Properly preparing a home for the market is more important than ever and is another key factor in our listings selling much faster and for more money than industry averages,” he added.

Scislow is able to get most new listings on the market within 24 hours with high quality representation, photos and Internet presence. Scislow can be reached at (952) 431-3900 or by email at jeff@scislow.com.
