Pullman WA Real Estate Reflections

 

This year in Pullman Washington I have had the opportunity to work with a good amount of both buyers and sellers.

My listings that I began with the season have for the most part sold.  I worked very hard this year to market their homes.  And those that sold were sellers who took advantage of their showings by putting their best foot forward and  priced their homes to sell.  A lot of sellers just don't get to see the competition as we as Realtors do.  But those who were motivated to get their home ready and priced right did well in our Pullman Real Estate Market.

The buyers I have worked with are now settled into their new Pullman homes. In fact, as we are approaching Thanksgiving now just a few weeks away, I have found myself thinking of my new buyers in their new home for their first thanksgiving.  I was fortunate to have a few first time home buyers this year, and I would expect many of them are hosting their first Thanksgiving and before long Christmas. And surprisingly, I have had a several buyers after the tax credit ended, some still waiting to close this year.

As I begin November and the sky is blue, the weather is mild, and the leaves still beautiful, it causes me to feel very fortunate this year.  Fortunate for the opportunity to work with some really great sellers and really great buyers.   And fortunate to live in Pullman Washington where it is not uncommon for me to run into my clients over town or in the grocery store.  I guess that is one of the best benefits of being a Realtor in a small town like Pullman.  And one of the things that truly makes me love my chosen profession in Real Estate.  It really isn't about a product such as a house, it is all about filling those once empty rooms with a life full of memories.

Buyers are Looking! Spruce Up Your Pullman Washington Curb Appeal This Memorial Day Weekend

what is my Pullman WA home worth?

Buyers are still looking in our Pullman Washington real estate market. Although the tax credit is over, buyers are still looking.  And that is great news for sellers!

Flowers Say Buy Me!

Over the Memorial Day Weekend here in Pullman, we often set aside some time to do some outdoor yard work.  If you are selling your home, it is more important than ever to keep it looking great from the outside! You want the buyer to drive or walk by and "want" to see YOUR HOME!  And when the buyer wants to see your home...that is going to convert into that all important showing!

Here are just a few items you might want consider tackling over the weekend.

Mow and trim the grass.  A freshly cut yard lays the foundation for your curb appeal.  Especially with the grass so green as it is now early on  in the season. And the last few weeks have had lots of rain giving it a lovely lush green color.

Weed the flower beds and put in some flowers. Flowers draw the eye to the house and say, "buy me!"  Weeds send a different message. Are there weeds because you don't care...or maybe this yard takes too much effort.  That is not the message you want!

Now that you have some space in that flowerbed, put the fast growing annual to work for you! I recently showed a home to a buyer that the seller was working hard to get those flowers in. It looked great!  And the buyers noticed! And a fresh coat of bark not only looks great but smells fantastic!

Hose the house, driveway and walkways down. Cobwebs and dirt don't leave a very appealing impression. This one is often overlooked.   It is an easy and quick fix.

Get eyesores out of sight! Make sure the hoses and garbage cans are tucked out of sight. We don't want anything detracting from the star of the show, your home.

Come On In!

Put out some final touches at your entrance. Keep your entrance and your front door looking great.  If it needs paint or a new door knob get to it!  Also,  a new mat, a container of flowers, maybe an item of interest can go a long way.

I personally am showing homes over Memorial Day Weekend. Maybe I will see you out there showing the loving care that buyers in today's market in Pullman are looking for!

The Spring Market is really heating up in Pullman Washington.  Homes for sale especially under the 200,000 range are going!  I know that many of my buyer clients and listing sellers are receiving the benefit of the first time tax credit.  And I have some clients who are also taking advantage of the existing homebuyers tax credit as well.

Today I talked to a wonderful young man thinking of buying a Pullman Home.  He hadn't heard about the tax credit.  So I thought I would include the great Washington Association of Realtors Video that explains the tax credit at the bottom of this market report.  

 

If you have any questions or would like to see some homes that fit your budget, I would love to show you some of these great homes!    Feel free click on the links below.  Or if you would prefer you can email or call anytime!

Pullman Washington, home of Washington State University, sits on the far eastern border of the state.   Washington State University and Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories are two of the major employers of our area.  

Winter is approaching and just last week we had our first snowfall.  The snow just touched the rolling farm fields that surround us providing a beautiful and lovely backdrop to our wonderful little community tucked into the Palouse.

Realtor Tour in Pullman Washington

 

Tour

 

 

 

I live in a small town.  We can get across town in about 5 minutes.  And even when we get inundated with out of town visitors for an out of town event such as a WSU game it is still about 10 minutes.  Living in a small town has it's benefits.

 

One of those benefits is Realtor Tour.  Because we can readily access the properties in our area, our office, like many of the offices here go out on tour faithfully.  The benefits are immense.

 

 

  • We see the properties before we show always keeping our eye for that perfect house for our client.
  • We have a better feel for the pricing on our own listings either currently on the market or coming on the market.
  • We let our seller's in our area know that we as an association are working hard to sell their property.  I think this is very important....we need to let the seller's know first hand that we are out there working to sell their home!
  • We get the opportunity to meet as an office and caravan.  Our office is like a family and it gives us an opportunity to see each other and discuss current trends.  We sure do have a great time on Tour!
  • We also get to see other agents in different offices too....and that is great!  Sometimes it is an old acquaintance that has moved on and a chance to catch up.  Sometimes it is an agent that we may of  had a deal with in the past.  It gives us a chance  to catch up about how they and their family may be.

 

Last week our office at Beasley put on a Breakfast tour.  It was a blast...each of us put something different out so that you had a pretty full tummy by the time tour was over.   We also put in a sign in sheet for a drawing. 

 

This week another Realtor from a different office put out lunch.  It was great!  I think the golden rule applies here...we treat both our clients, the seller's of other Realtor's clients and each other as Realtors as we would want to be treated ourselves...

Selling Your Pullman WA Home in the Fall and Winter Market

Pullman WA Fall Market

Fall is here and winter is approaching...with that in mind temperatures are dropping. Last week in Pullman Washington we had unusually cold weather. Temperatures dropped from our usual 30 to 40 night time temps to nearly 10 degrees!  Fortunately, things have warmed back up, but with that in mind it is time to think about how your home "shows" during the fall and winter months.


 

For those of you home owners who are living in your home while your home is on the market, please make sure to leave those interior lights on and furnace up for showings.   If you should have a fireplace, a fire in the fireplace is a great selling point!

A well lit home is a great marketing tool too!  You might want to consider some lights a long your walk way. And think of how many people pass by your home on their way home from work.  Your home beaming with lights provides a welcome beacon that makes that buyer want to come in and see your lovely home first hand.

And if you do find yourself having to move on to your new location, leaving your home vacant during the fall and winter months, one of the very most important thing you can do is leave your thermostat up!  A cold and dark home just doesn't have that warm inviting feeling that allows a buyer to see themselves in their new home. Leaving your heat at merely 50 plus may protect your pipes from freezing weather, but it doesn't provide that warm comfy feeling your buyers are looking for!   So, turn up the heat!  Your buyers and you, the seller, could very well be glad you did!
