Dec. 27, 2006 - First Time Home Seller

When I picked my cateogories for 2007, I don't know what I was thinking when I picked First Time Home Seller.  God, there is just so much to say there, and yet no one does. 

Google "First Time Home..." and you will get more advice than you can filter through your brain on "1st time home BUYER".  Some things on "1st time home OWNER.  But not nearly as much on "First time home Seller".

Honestly, this is dangerous territory, because agents lie more to sellers than anyone else.  Mostly because sellers create that "set up" by asking the wrong questions.  You end up answering all of the seller's questions instead of telling them what they really need to hear.  It's standard "modus operandi".

So let's start it off real simple.

Do NOT, do not, do not...tell the agent(s) you are interviewing, what you think your home is worth.  We will beg, plead, coerce and generally do everyting we can to get you to spit out a number, before we give YOU a number.  DO NOT DO IT!
