4 Hazards of Selling Without a REALTOR® BE SMART…When real estate markets are on the upswing, it’s common for sellers to get creative and look for ways to turn a profit. Here are 4 hazards you should consider before you decide to go at it alone:

#1 REDUCED PROFITS- Fact: Homes sold using an agent sold for 20% more than those sold by the owner*.

#2 MISSED DEALS- Response time is critical when it comes to

accepting an offer and closing deals. If you’re trying to evaluate and respond to offers around a busy schedule or full-time job, you run the risk of missing out on the market’s most motivated buyers who can’t afford to waste time waiting for a deal to come together.

#3 TIME IS MONEY- While you may think you’ll save on commission by selling solo, the fact is, going at it alone can cost you a lot of time and reduced profits. Here’s a list of the most difficult tasks that soak up valuable time during the home selling process for owners who sold without an agent*: • understanding

and performing the paperwork the right price • preparing the property for sale • working with buyer lenders • attracting potential buyers • negotiating

#4 ACCIDENTAL BUYER BRUSH OFFS- 90% of home buyers used the internet in their home search in 2012*. Without a savvy REALTOR®, your property won’t show up on the top sites where buyers search or on the local MLS. Don’t brush off the millions of house hunters shopping online. You could miss out on key qualified buyers who are ready to close!

What they say about working with Kevin…

A client review posted on Google:

480.217.9184

“It was such a pleasure to work with Kevin! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Every step of the way he kept me informed of everything I needed to know. The best part was that he was there when I needed him. Via phone, text or email, he was always reachable. I never felt out of the loop or ignored.

A great knowledge of the Phoenix market and smart, targeted strategy for our loft, helped it sell quickly. We were under contract within 10 days of going on the market with an offer $8,000 over asking price. I never expected it to sell so quickly! Knowing how to price it and finding the right comparable sales in the neighborhood set us up for this great outcome. The professional photos and online presentation definitely helped our property stand out and it got noticed! We had multiple offers and they were all over asking price.

The most surprising part, this all took place before meeting him face to face. I live on the east coast and was able to work with him from a distance. Kevin took care of everything I needed. With electronic signatures and thorough explanations of every process, it was never an issue to be on the other side of the country. Since I’m no longer in Phoenix, my only disappointment is that I won’t get to work with him again! Thank you for a fantastic real estate experience.”

N OVEMBER | DECEMBER 2013 The holidays are almost here! Why not make this the year you create winter memories that will last a lifetime?

Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukah, or Kwanzaa, holiday traditions will help you build family time that will be cherished for years to come. Here are a few festive ways to make this winter season one to remember.

First, make your home magical. Whether it’s placing your tree or menorah in the same special spot year after year or creating an ornament theme that grows and grows each Christmas, building rituals into your holidays will make them truly unique. A few more decorating ideas to consider: Hang elegant stockings

CURED DUCK TOPPED WITH ONION JAM & SOUR CHERRY MUSTARD DUCK PREPARATION: Wood fire half a duck and grill to medium.

INGREDIENTS: Duck Onion Jam 1 yellow onion diced 2 tbsp mustard seeds 6 oz rice wine vinegar 1/2 c of sugar 1 tbsp salt 1 tbsp white pepper PREPARATION: Cook vinegars and sugar to dissolve sugar. Add remaining ingredients and reduce by half over moderate heat. Allow jam to cool at room temperature.

Sour Cherry Mustard 2 shallots, finely chopped 1 tbsp minced garlic 8 oz red wine 2 c sour cherries, chopped 2 sprigs of thyme 1 tbsp creole mustard 1 pt duck demi-glaze Salt and pepper to taste PREPARATION: Sweat vegetables. Deglaze vegetables with red wine and add stock. Finish with herbs then salt and pepper to taste.

Top the wood fired duck with the onion jam and sour cherry mustard.

for Santa to fill, each embellished with your children’s names; get a second children’s Christmas tree that only the little ones can trim; don your staircase and mantle with evergreens and all-white candles; and don’t forget to hang mistletoe or a kissing ball for lovebirds who pay you a visit.

The exterior of your home should not be forgotten either. Get into the holiday spirit by lighting up a few spectacular trees in your yard or highlighting some of the unique architectural aspects of your house. Each year, your family and neighbors will look forward to your light extravaganza. Need inspiration? Head to the zoo to see its dazzling display of holiday lights.

Looking for a way to appreciate all the holiday lights in your own neighborhood? Try the old tradition of caroling from house to house. Gather your friends and family, pass out some festive sheet music, and don’t forget your holiday cheer. Best part about caroling? You can make it a White Christmas simply singing the song

by Bing Crosby, even if the weather

does not wish to participate.

Finally, there’s no better place to build holiday traditions than in the kitchen. After all, nothing says the holidays better than warm

gingerbread cookies and hot cocoa. Make the winter holidays special for the little ones by making homemade holiday cookies and treats (maybe even start up an annual cookie swap for friends and neighbors).

The kids or grandkids will really enjoy building a beautiful gingerbread house and will look forward to this event year after year. Create a photo album of your gingerbread houses through the years as a special memento.

While you’re in the kitchen, why not plan a holiday dinner that every member of the family will look forward to year after year? Forego the normal roasts and casseroles and prepare your partner or child’s favorite meal instead, even if it’s a nontraditional choice. Voila … instant family tradition. And don’t forget to whip up a signature seasonal cup of cheer – think cranberries, cinnamon, and spice. Happy holidays!

Housing Market Review BY MIKE ORR

It is now almost two and a half years since the Greater Phoenix housing market hit its lowest monthly median sales price of $117,000 in April 2011.

Since then the monthly median sales price for single family homes in Maricopa County has recovered sharply, reaching $204,250 as of August 2013. That 75% jump indicates just how much the market has changed, but it still has another 41% to grow before attaining the previous high of $287,990 reached in June 2006.

The market has changed in content too. Back in April 2011 the majority (64%) of the market consisted of distressed properties including homes sold at trustee sales, bank owned properties, HUD homes and short sales.

In August 2013 these distressed properties were only 18% of sales and the majority of transactions are now between normal sellers and buyers.

Distressed properties often sell at discounts of 25% or more, so as they disappear this has a large effect on the

median sales price. If we look exclusively at normal transactions, median sales prices have increased by a more modest 17% from $180,000 in April 2011 to $210,000 in August 2013.

Without a large number of foreclosures, buyers have outnumbered sellers for quite some time, although from $200,000 upwards that situation is now easing. More homeowners now have equity and are free to sell their home without needing permission from their lender. Higher prices have led to weaker enthusiasm from investors and their purchases have fallen from almost 40% of the market last summer to just under 24% in August this year. Out-ofstate buyers also have lower interest in Greater Phoenix now that we are no longer offering attractive homes at bargain basement prices.

New home builders are slowly ramping up production in areas such as the Southeast and Northwest Valleys, but are still at completion levels that are less than half the monthly rate of the

late 1990s. Constraints on affordable land and construction labor mean they are unlikely to be able to increase the number of homes fast enough to keep pace with populations growth. However household formation remains subdued due to the weak job recovery.

The luxury market has been stimulated by lenders making jumbo loans more available as well as offering more attractive terms. Some have lower rates for jumbo loans than conventional loans which is a very unusual situation.

All these factors are combining to cause the market to return to more normal conditions and the balance between buyer and seller slightly less favorable to sellers than it has been over the last two years. In contrast buyers have much more choice and a little more bargaining power.
