Lightning DOES Strike
Lisa and I were fortunate to list a home last week in Clemmons that has already gone into due diligence. Luck? Maybe... but this seller knew the market. She had been subscribing to my neighborhood newsletter for a couple of years, in which I kept residents informed of recent listings and sales in this particular Clemmons neighborhood. When it came time for her to sell, she and I sat down and reviewed the latest comps. Honestly, the numbers were very disappointing to her, so she had to think about it for a few days. She considered renting but decided the hassle and potential problems of being an absentee landlord just weren't worth it. She put her home on the market in show ready condition and at the recommended price. We had 9 showings in 8 days, one offer that was negotiated and then accepted, and a potential back up offer coming. No matter what the media would have you to believe, lightning DOES strike in Clemmons in the form of education, research, and being an informed consumer!
