When do people usually come to look at house for sale/open house?

Yes, all agents will call you. It is for the Conveince of the BUYER. All of the appointments are to help you sell. It's a pain in the butt for you to have to jump up and get outta the house whenever they call but...we're taling about selling. Sell, sell, sell!!! Also, you may get calls for evening appointments, weekends and whenever a buyer can see your house. Good luck, I am in the same boat as you! SELL, SELL, SELL!!! :)

Irrespective of Christmas, there will always be people looking for a house. The whole world doesn't stop for Christmas - even if the shops/media like to think it does. You could try putting it on the market to get a feel of things. If you don't like it, you can always take your property off the market and put it back on sometime in the new year. It also depends on how marketable your property is. If your property/area is in huge demand then someone will come along.\n\nIf I was looking for a property, I wouldn't stop just because its Christmas. The only problem is that solicitors etc. break up for a fortnight at Christmas so it will slow down the sale process.

There's a long list, but here are a few:\n\nThe average sale price is higher for houses sold by agents than by Owners.\n\nOwners don't have the experience and knowledge of how to properly market, show, negotiate, and close a property.\n\nMost buyers are looking for months prior to buying a home. The professional has already been marketing to those buyers prior to you wanting to sell, and therefore has a ready pool of buyers for your home.\n\nMost buyers do not buy the home that they see advertised. Agents have more than one home to sell, and can direct those buyers to your home. You have only one to sell, therefore most buyers coming to look at your home will end up buying something else.\n\nMost buyers need to sell before they can buy. An agent can help the buyer to sell so they can buy your house. Can you do this?\n\nAn agent has a ready list of people ready to help if there are problems-- specialty mortgage lenders, contractors, inspectors, attorneys, closing agents, etc. Who do you have ready?\n\nAgents know what to say, but particularly what NOT to say to prospective buyers. One little mistake by you could end up in a lawsuit for discrimination, or misrepresentation. At best, the buyer will just walk.

As an agent, I'm not satisfied until my buyers find the best home for them.  If I do my job correctly and LISTEN to what they are looking for, the process always goes smoothly.  I find that after a few days of seeing homes a few key drivers emerge for the clients and we are able to refine the search parameters.  I have no limit on how many homes I'll show! (but we can usually find the ONE after 10-15 showings)

Unless your buyers believe in "Feng Shui".Since you have mention that your house is in beautifully conditioned,don't worry about others which are also for sales,must have confident in your house,unless you are selling way above market price.Buyers will pay your price,if they feel your house worth it.\n\nJust don't show that you are desperately looking for a buyer.

You have out of sight housing prices over there too? The market here(US) is finally cooling off. Now maybe regular people just might be able to think about buying a house again.

Makes a personal connection with people trying to purchase or refinance their home.  It is essentially a sales position and usually a commissioned one at that.

It depends on where you live. If you live in a city that has a subdivision of "Craigslist", which in NY is newyork.craigslist.com (check www.craigslist.com ) and then go to the rightside of that main page to see if your city is listed. If so, click on that city, and then enter in your listing under "homes for sale".\n\nPut in as much information as you can. Put in pictures on the ad. Have an open house on a sunday from say 1:00 - 2:30 PM. Make sure you get everyone's phone # and e-mail address before they leave your home! Make sure you find out what the buyer wants before they come to your home! If they're looking for a 3-bedroom thats 1200 square feet and a 2-car garage, and you have a 4-bedroom that is 1500 square feet, with no garage, tell them this, so that you won't waste you rtime and theirs.\n\nTo get a price in mind to sell your home at, go to www.realtor.com and enter in your city's info, and search for similar homes.  Price your home accordingly.\n\nWhen you get offers, find out what % they can put down, when they can close, and how much they make, and where they live now and how much they pay.\n\nConsider all offers, because someone that offers less than you're looking for, but can put down 20% is much more likely to get a loan than someone that offers a higher price but can only put down 3% or so.\n\nAfter you get that all set, or even before, look for an attorney to do the paperwork for you. Very simple. So, you do NOT need a realtor to help you!! I've sold 2 of my homes this way, and saved obviously a bundle. \n\nGood luck!

well there are a couple different ways. Contact your local real estate broker and ask if there are any foreclosures being sold. Also look for public foreclosure auctions in your local newpapers.

You show up at a foreclosure sale with a certified check as required in the notice (usually $5,000 or $10,000), if you want to bid. You can attend any advertised foreclosure auction if you just want to see how it works. If you want to buy, you should try to check out the house beforehand, since most auctioned properties have been neglected, often for years. Needless to say, the owners will not be helpful nor willing to let you in.\n\nA few minutes before the scheduled time for the auction, a lawyer and/or auctioneer will show up. The auctioneer will open the proceedings with a review of the rules and the procedure. The lawyer or other agent will bid for the mortgage holder. There may be other bidders, although often not. Many auctions are called off because the owners were able to reach an arrangement or file for bankruptcy.

I don't know the NY Real Estate market but in sales (in my state)it takes months to close your first deal. Rentals may be different. But I think to make "killer dollars" you have in some "killer time".
