Lots of Homes For Sale in Clearwater Florida
I am down in Clearwater Florida for the Memorial Day holiday and I can't keep from noticing all of the properties that are for sale. Just on the street that my condo is located on, there are almost 30 single family houses or condos for sale. 30 properties for sale all on the same 1.8 mile long road. How do you make your property stand out in this market when you have competition coming at you from all sides? Be different. Don't do the same old thing, or allow your listing agent to just stick a sign in the front yard and hope that a buyer picks your house over the 29 others.
Some of the homeowners with properties for sale on my street are taking non-traditional steps to getting buyers to bite. I saw one that is offering a lease purchase, another that is offering their property for extended rent and another is holding an auction next week. I will still be in town so I may go over to the auction to see how it goes.
Homeowners who have the luxury of time can wait for the market to improve or the competition to lessen. However, those who need to sell for whatever reason need to make sure that they are doing everything possible to stand out and differentiate their home if they hope to sell.
Take a look at a quick video I shot of some of the houses for sale that I saw. Click on the video below and be sure to mosey on over to the Clearwater Properties YouTube channel.
