One,Two,Three Strikes You WIN!

The days are getting longer, the sun is getting stronger, and spring is in the air here in Sarasota. Spring training begins here the first week in March. Baltimore Orioles 2018 Spring Training Schedule, click here. If you are a baseball lover, you will be in heaven! From Tampa, to Ft. Myers, Sarasota is midway, and you can see all of your favorite teams.

At Bat Here,s the Pitch

What a whirl-wind the last few months have been, and we want to say how much we have enjoyed all of you who were able to attend the Retirement Expos and stopped at our booth. We look forward to your visits, and to be able to find you wonderful places down here to spend those cold winter months that you get up north. (We came down here 14+ years ago from Buffalo N.Y., so we definitely know what you are going through)!

As Buyers Agents, we work hard to not only get you the best pricing possible – "New or Resale", but also focus on “working for you” in all aspects of your home purchase. As many of you are still in the midst of winter, and you think about putting your home on the market, I thought I would share a few hints.

You never get a second chance to make a first impression

Become your buyer!

What do you see when you pull up to your home?

Does the first impression say: this home looks pristine.

Are the bushes trimmed, the front door freshly painted- the weeds pulled from in between the cracks in the side walk?

Does the front of your home look inviting- pulling the buyer inside?

Now walk through your front door just the way a buyer will, is there a light in the entry? Is it sparkling clean? Is the entry free of clutter? Now that you are in the main part of the home, you want to make sure the floors are in good shape, rugs, walls, molding, windows, and doors all are clean and fresh.

Perhaps the most important room is the kitchen. It has a major impact on whether the home feels updated, or old and stale. There are many things you can to do spruce it up, without breaking the bank!

Is this a kitchen you want to spend time in? Is it clean, bright, and uncluttered. If you empty all the top shelves (do this in every closet and cabinet in the whole house). You have to pack anyway, just get a head start. Makes it seem like you have sooo much room. Changing the handles on the cabinets is an easy way to give the kitchen a new look. So can changing a light fixture.

We have been seeing home prices increase all over the country, and even though it is not season, we have been seeing it here as well.

It is not too early to think about heading south, and purchasing your dream home, either to relocate permanently, or a “run-away” from the winter cold.

Remember, as Buyer’s agents, Irv and I work for you. We will always save you money, resale or new. You do not pay for our services- the seller does – (Resale or NEW!)

We look forward to helping you live your dream.

Siesta Key Beach

As you think about putting your home on the market,
a few hints:

You never get a second chance to make a first impression!

Become your buyer – If you weren’t moving to Paradise, would you buy your home at the price you are asking?

What do you see when you pull up to your home?

Does the first impression say: Wow- this home looks pristine?

As they walk through your home, can your buyer envision each room for his or her purpose? Is there plenty of room for their belongings? Empty every top shelf ( do this in every cabinet and shelf in the house). You have to pack any way, this will give you a head start. Whether you are dreaming of downtown or dockside, water view or your favorite fairway, our commitment is to help you discover your ultimate lifestyle.
