Hollywood Hills Real Estate Sales
Hollywood Hills Real Estate Contract Options
Finally, the Exclusive Agency Listing allows an agent to list and market your Hollywood Hills real estate. The agent will earn a commission if he/she or any other agent sells the property but not if the homeowner finds his/her own buyer. Very few if any agents are willing to agree to spend time, money and know-how on promoting a home without the guarantee of a commission when the home sells.
Many people imagine that the agent who lists their home begins an immediate search for likely homebuyers for Hollywood Hills but this is not always the case. The real skill of a good listing agent is her/his ability to market your home to other agents. Usually as soon as your listing agent returns to the office, your home is entered into the MLS and is now available to hundreds, maybe thousands of other agents.
Hollywood Hills Homebuyers Quandry
Armed with the Comparative Marketing Analysis, it is time to approach your lender to see if you can get financing without selling your current Hollywood Hills. In most cases, financing will be contingent upon selling your home but you may be able to obtain interim financing sometimes known as a Bridge Loan.
Hollywood Hills Homebuyers Quandry
When you find the home you want to buy you may make an offer contingent upon the sale of your existing Hollywood Hills. In a Seller’s Market, offers with such contingencies are not well received because the seller must remove his home from the market while you sell yours. However there are times when this kind of offer is successful, even in the Hollywood Hills market. A backup strategy might be to put in your offer with a very long escrow giving yourself time to sell your home. Very few sellers will accept these kinds of contingencies or long escrows if your house is not already on the market.
Does Your Hollywood Hills Have Curb Appeal?
From cottages to castles some Hollywood Hills have so much curb appeal that passersby can’t help but stop and admire them. When visiting property with great curb appeal, prospective buyers often experience 'Love at First Sight' and this disposes them to love the entire home before they even walk through the front door.
Hollywood Hills curb appeal is the result of a perfect blend of architectural style, landscaping, up-keep and color choices. Money alone does not guarantee outstanding curb appeal. I’ve seen very expensive Area homes with costly landscaping that fail to appeal and I’ve seen very modest priced Area homes with outstanding curb appeal. In part, the landscaping aspect of curb appeal is a matter of personal taste.
Green Remodeling Your Hollywood Hills
If you are planning to remodel your Hollywood Hills, keep home resale in mind and consider going green. Green remodeling is becoming more popular as homeowners consider health issues, skyrocketing energy costs and Earth’s natural resources. And, when it comes time to sell your home, your energy efficient and Earth saving remodeling may help you sell your Hollywood Hills quickly and for top dollar.
Hollywood Hills BASICS
Location, location, location pretty much describes the basics of all real estate markets and the Hollywood Hills market is no exception. A lovely estate home next door to a power plant or on a hill where major sliding has occurred is not as valuable as that same home in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood. This is why most astute buyers tend to rely on real estate agents who are well versed in the community and know the area well.
