Greg's Real Estate Thoughts

• Mar. 13, 2006 - Owner/Agent

I'm about to do it!  I'm about to put myself through the grueling process of selling my house.  I will once again have to personally experience the trials and tribulations, as well as the rewards, that accompany this process.  It's been said that good REALTORS® should sell their own house every couple of years.  It lets them remember and relate better to what the process feels like in addition to being proficient in the technical and logistical aspects as we are. But that's not why I'm doing it!  That is just an additional benefit.

 

So here we go... we begin the process in the correct order by putting our house up for sale which we'll do within the week.  Once we get to the point of being past the contingency stages of a sales contract we'll start looking for our new home a little further east in Broward County!  I can't say it enough - Thanks mom and dad!

 

Stay tuned for updates on my progress.  I'll let you know what I learn as I go through this process once again.

See my latest post with a photo of my soon to be listing I staged this weekend.

Send us after photos...send me before photos and I'll give you a few staging tips :-)

Maybe we can all go into your mls on the internet and pick a new house for you!

This can be fun!

Posted by Greg DiSisto
Hmmm.... I'm not so sure I should publicly post those "before" pictures. :) All seriousness, it's a good idea. I'll get some pictures up soon. I'm off to check out your photos too, Ardell.

Greg, You are going to love it and hate it. Amazingly my last move (18 months ago) was my easiest, but the hardest transaction of my career! The move was easy because we moved with portable storage containers and even though we had temporary housing for a while, the PODS allowed us to pack and unpack over several days instead of all in one day. It was a great way to go! Good luck on your endeavor!

• Mar. 17, 2006 - Moving

Posted by Anonymous
I've always managed to buy my next house first. Move into it. Then go back and completely redo the old house. My own homes have sold quickly when fixed up, even though they were vacant. I can't imagine (I do most of my work out of my home office)
trying to do business and at the same time worry about showing my own place. It would give me nightmares! Eileen Landau www.MoveUPtoNaperville.blogspot.com
