Joe Kendall, Realtor with Sandals Realty a Waterfront and Foreclosure Specialist Direct Line 239-560-0726 writes, So you are thinking about selling your home in southwest Florida? Well let me start by saying, When I am talking to Sellers about putting there home on the market for sale two main points the Seller's want to know is what do you think my home is worth? and what are you going to do to sell my home?

Let's start with what is the number one reason, homes do not sell ? Price ! It is all about Pricing it correctly from the start ! The main reason homes are placed on the market at to high of a price is because the Sellers have not lost their emotional attachment to their home. Selling your home in today's real estate market can be described as it is only worth what the home will appraise for and what the buyers are willing to pay for it . It's  very competitive in todays real estate market, Just look around ! 

You have to want to get rid of the home regardless of how long you have owned it, how many improvements you have made, how much nicer your home is then any other homes on the street. Today's current real estate values are down to 2003 levels and in some areas such as Cape Coral Florida and Lehigh Acres Florida where the market prices are even lower as they are driven by the supply of foreclosures and short sales homes currently on the market. 

Your emotional attachment will play a huge roll in your ability to sell your home. It's a Buyers Market They hold "All the Keys "in you selling your home! But Pricing it correctly, Staging the Home, Displaying Great Curb or Waterfront Appeal, will make your home stand out in a crowd!  It's all about marketing the home well with several interior and exterior pictures! Let the pictures tell the story! People buy with their Eyes! Then we need to reach out to as many home buyers as possible, having a "Strong Internet Marketing Program" with search engine results in your local neighborhood and your City will help you get the exposure to home buyers near and far! This type of exposure these days is needed to help you sell your home.

I feature three web sites that all have access to the multi listing service and selling the Florida lifestyle for attracting Home Buyers to my listings and my real estate services. Check them out for yourself at www.Joeknowscapecoral.com or www.Viewswflorida.com or www.Joekendall.listingbook.com

It's not about if the Realtor works for a national real estate franchise, or the largest real estate office, or the company that runs the largest advertisement in the Local Newspaper. It's all about the marketing skills of the Realtor and the Realtors ability to attract home buyers here in the United States and around the Globe to Southwest Florida. Southwest Florida is a International real estate market with people from around the world looking for a vacation home. Southwest Florida has some of the very best attractions and now some of the best home prices in the Country!  

Joe Kendall, REALTOR with Sandals Realty, a Waterfront and Foreclosure Specialist writes, I  have received several emails in regards to Waterfront Property. Last weekend I showed a couple from Vancouver several waterfront pool homes. We viewed 15 homes from $160,000 $199,000  over two days and they have their top 6 homes that we are going to start the contract process. They told me they can not believe what their money can buy here compared to what homes cost back in their home town! I am going to tell my brother he should buy in Cape Coral also. The value is so much better.  

I have recieved several emails and a few phone calls recently in reference to Foreign Nationals with the Canadian Dollar and EURO so strong they are thinking about buying here in southwest Florida. Our home prices are very low compared to the rest of Florida Cities on either coast. I feel we will see this interest continue to pick up as we work our way to the start of the fall and winter selling season. 

If you are interested in mortgage information for Foreign Nationals Please give me a call or send me an email and I will put you in contact with a very good Mortgage Broker. There are some very good programs that are well worth your time checking out, verse paying all cash for a property here in southwest Florida.

The real estate industry has been very good to me over the past 10 years, Being a Realtor you help so many people buy their dream home or sell their home and move on with their lives in so many different directions. Today's real estate market around the country and southwest Florida is no different, many people in need to sell their home to avoid foreclosure.

I personally feel as a REALTOR we can make a difference in peoples lives, it is like giving back to an industry that has been very good to me over the last 10 years. I personally decided over a year ago to focus a lot of my business on foreclosure help to home owners that need our experience more then ever these days. I also feel by doing this I can offer my clients looking to buy a home here in southwest Florida some of the best deals to be found in all of Florida! Besides helping the local people here in southwest Florida avoid foreclosure.  

I received a call last week from a person wanting to sell his home a Bank Approved Short Sale. But he explained to me that the Realtor he has used in the past told him he was not interested in doing a short sale because all the time and work that involved in doing a short sale ?  I nicely said him lets make an appointment next week and lets review your situation and see if we can get this home off your back. 

The sooner we get a majorty of the foreclosure homes sold the sooner we return to a normal real estate market here and around the country. Everyone should try and do their part to help. I still continue to list and sell homes that are not in the foreclosure process, but helping out people and the real estate industry is just the " Right Thing To Do "
