I recently read this statistic:

 

 

Around 41% of listed homes have a price reduction before they get an accepted offer. Help your sellers understand.

While it may not surprise you, it will certainly surprise your clients. Obviously our goal is to help our clients get to the right price at the time of listing, but sometimes that doesn’t happen. The perfect world would be that they follow your advice and market their home correctly! However, in the case that you need them to reduce their asking price, you really need to help them understand why and help them to keep their end goal in sight.

There are few things better than coming home from a stressful day to an excited dog or cat. Whether you’re at your best or feeling your absolute worst, pets always remain right by your side. 

Most pet owners consider their furry friend to be another member of the family, and they can provide owners with lots of other benefits. Here are a few:

1. Relieves Stress

Animals, particularly dogs, are often used to help individuals manage high stress levels. They have started bringing dogs into work places to help relieve stress. Universities have dogs on campus especially during finals and Veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and anxious children are other groups that experience less stress in the presence of a…

You’ve read the headlines: Build sweat equity. DIY special. Needs some TLC. These homes are far from turnkey, but they can offer good opportunities. With the right renovations, fixer-uppers can be a profitable investment.

But is this type of purchase right for you? To answer this question, consider three important factors.

Your plans. If you’re hoping to get a good deal on real estate and flip it for a profit or rent it out for extra money, this can be a good option. Another great option is buying a fixer-upper and doing the repairs yourself in order to transform the house into your dream home. On the other hand, if you have watched a lot of real estate shows and expect to spend a couple of weekends working on the home and then make big…

Shelter Cove Harbour and Marina is all aglow this holiday season. Instead of strolling the streets, you’ll stroll along the boardwalk and take in the light show of the boats. Enjoy dinner or drinks at any of the restaurants along the way. The light show runs through December and starts every night at dusk. Enjoy!

The Cobb Group & Charter One have some very exciting news to share! Charter One Realty reached a milestone that is rarely seen in this market. We closed over $1,000,000,000 (ONE BILLION DOLLARS) in real estate! To put that in perspective, that’s more than three times our closest competitor who has just as many (if not more) agents. Our Bluffton, Promenade office alone has 11 individuals/teams responsible for $5M to $20M in 2019 Closings (and we still have half a month to go). The Cobb Group is one of these dynamic teams!!! A huge congratulations to all Charter One Realtors. We are so grateful to be part of this outstanding company!

Thank you Marr’s for the kind words. We really enjoyed working with you, and we really appreciate the Google Review.

 

 

Our buying experience was a little unusual. We saw a house listed that met our criteria but we were leaving Bluffton that afternoon. Allison had sold homes to family members in the past so we called her because they had all had good experiences with her. She got her husband to show us the house before we had to leave. From that point on every contract was made over the phone or computer. We chose the financing and law firm on her recommendations. All went smoothly and we were finally able to meet everyone when we went to close. Excellent job by all concerned. Thanks, Allison and company.
