Fresh, Local Produce Right Here in Las Sendas!

To view today's active residential real estate listings, click the link below.




I was at the Trailhead Members Club yesterday returning my produce box for Chow Locally.  It's a great service that brings fresh local and mostly organic produce nearly to your front door.  It's delivered to the Trailhead on Mondays and you bring in your empty box from the week before and pick up a new fresh box.  We've been enjoying a nice variety of produce this summer:  apples,  peaches, melons, carrots, cucumbers, squash, sweet potatoes, onions, kale, chard, basil and quite a bit more!  What is really great is that you sign up on line.  The week prior you are sent an email that gives a list of what to expect for the coming week.  You can opt to have the order placed or put the week "on hold".  You can place future weeks on hold based on your travel plans etc.  It's very convenient and I love that the produce comes from family farms in AZ.  If you haven't tried it yet, you should check it out.

Pricing your home for a quick sale

Click link below to view today's active listings for Las Sendas Real Estate


Have you ever wondered why some homes  take forever to sell when many others in the community are selling pretty quick?  A few reasons can make a big difference in the number of days it takes for a home to sell.  The condition of the home (which we touched on in the previous post), the location and the price are common factors.  If the condition is bad and the seller is unwilling to improve that, then the price must reflect accordingly.  If the location is poor, then again the price will need to be lower than the competition.  No matter the market conditions and the factors of the home itself,  the price is usually the underlying reason for a home that sits.  A home that is overpriced will be overlooked by the actual buyer pool that should be looking it.  There may be showings for the home often resulting in zero or very low offers.  A home that is priced right from the start will be seen by buyers who are familiar with the competition and will know that if the home is right, they'll need to make a quality offer quickly before it's too late.  The great homes that are priced right sell.  If you would like a comparative market on your home, we would be happy to meet with you and provide you our professional opinion.

Las Sendas Real Estate and Getting your home ready for market

Click on the link at the bottom of this post to view all the active listings for Las Sendas Real Estate for August 18th, 2013




Kids are back to school, the days are still too hot for a lot of activity outdoors.  We're ready for cooler temps and pretty soon we'll be enjoying the outdoors and the beauty of our community.  It's a great time to get your home organized and ready for the upcoming "season".  Take a tour of your home.  Start at your curb and walk your way through your home finishing off in the back yard.  Along your tour, pretend you are a buyer (even if you are not selling).  Take notes of the items that need touch up, fixing or updating.  Cleaning and removing the clutter will go a long way.  If you're thinking of moving, this is a must for any seller.  Buyer's make buying decisions within the first 60 seconds of viewing your home.  It may be subconscious, but it's true.  You need to make your home look and feel like they could live there.  If you would like a professional eye, we are happy to take a tour with you through your home and give a bit of advise.  When working for our sellers, we make sure we are presenting their home in the best light possible and we help our clients get ahead of the competition.
