Sharon Kramlich’s February 24 Newsletter

 

I am excited to say that the 2020 real estate market has already been busy. In the last few weeks I have placed 4 off market homes into contract. Which affirms that the off-market sales are still happening and buyers have been eager to snatch them up and avoid competition.

Read on for some interesting data points as well as my own off market and upcoming listings- we are off to a great start!

 

Despite home price growth softening in some of the nation’s most expensive markets, it’s still a seller’s market according to an Attom Data Solutions report released on Thursday.

 

Sellers in San Jose, California (82.8 percent); San Francisco, California (72.8 percent); Seattle, Washington (65.6 percent); Merced, California (63.2 percent) and Salem, Oregon (62.1 percent) experienced the greatest returns on investment for the second consecutive year.

When you're preparing your home for market, it makes sense to assess what improvements can be made so that you're not leaving money on the table at closing that you could have gained back by increasing the value of your property.

 

But what are those improvements? By the time you sell, the window of opportunity to make strategic improvements is small, and you may be limited by market conditions and time constraints.

 

What if we worked together well before a sale, with my expertise as a strategic partner in assessing opportunities for home improvements?

 

With Compass' programs, I can provide valuable insight into neighborhood trends, market conditions, and buyer behavior patterns well before you sell in order to help you position your home for maximum value no matter what stage of ownership you're in.

 

 

 

 I am so excited to let you know that I will be departing today, for this lifelong dream of mine, to hike and bike around Patagonia. This trip feels especially important to me as I am raising funds through my athletic efforts and those funds go directly to the Climate Ride organization. Climate Ride can do so much more to effect positive Climate change efforts at scale than we as individuals can do. 

 

The health of our planet, economy, and communities is at stake. Right now, it is more important than ever to work toward a sustainable future. 

 

Please consider donating to this worthy cause and thank you for helping to make a difference for our children's tomorrow! And if you have already donated thank you so much for your support. Myself and the Climate Ride team are extremely grateful!

 

I will update you on my experience in the next newsletter in March!

 

Yours Gratefully,

Sharon.
