Whew—what a weekend for sales!!


People must have forgotten about the doom and gloom over the lack of the tax credit….it ended April 30th.  Missy and I had a lot of showings on our listings, and one person even wants to….horrors….BUY ONE OF OUR LISTINGS!!  

Our biggest sales months are yet to come:  May, June, July…..so sellers, if you still want to test the market, it is the best time you will have all years.

Are prices slipping all over the Metro KC area?


Homes are selling right now–Missy and I have received several offers on our listings…but the prices don’t seem to be matching even last fall’s…..We have been watching the Brookside area, South KC, and much of Joco…and it seems like we are still losing a little ground.  What to do….get your home STAGED!!!  This will give you an edge. We use a professional stager as part of our listing package for our sellers….works out great.

Woo-Hoo ! 2 short sales actually closed!!


We list many many short sale properties, and actually write 2-3 per month.  We got lucky and TWO closed yesterday–one with our buyer who had been renting the home.  One of the lenders was Wells Fargo and they were really great to work with–they actually ANSWERED their phones!  The other was Chase, and although the process was slower, they got it done and we did feel like we had our own personal negotiator…who actually remembered our name!!
