Welcome! to www.HomeStory.com ...where the story of "your" home may make the difference in whether a buyer decides to sign on the dotted line. Granted the market has been a little bumpy! The more recent market is picking up and with the new tax credit incentives, the first part of 2010 looks like it may BOOM! Remember the SELLERS tax credit (up to $6500) and the "FIRST TIME BUYERS credit (up to $8000). The Johnson City market IS active, there are a lot of first time buyers out there. But not every house is selling – the homes that stand apart sell (are bought) first. It is more important than ever that sellers position (price and preparation) their home to shine from day one. But I’m afraid you need to do more than that, you need to do things that no one else is doing and that is where the HomeSTORY idea comes in. Absolutely price your home smartly, repair, paint, declutter, clean spit and shine do all that and then make your house a home – personalize it. That does not mean you want your walls to look like a family reunion or that you leave out your fuzzy slippers on purpose – it’s not that kind of personalization! Rather you want potential buyers to see themselves in your house, they may look at 20 similar houses and the house they pick is the one they feel they can make their own!
