11 Reasons to List During the Holidays

1. People who look for a home during the Holidays are more serious buyers! 2. Serious buyers have fewer houses to choose from during the Holidays and less competition means more money for you! 3. Since the supply of listings will dramatically increase in January, there will be less demand for your particular home! Less demand means less money for you! 4. Houses show better when decorated for the Holidays! 5. Buyers are more emotional during the Holidays, so they are more likely to pay your price! 6. Buyers have more time to look for a home during the Holidays than they do during a working week! 7. Some people must buy before the end of the year for tax reasons! 8. January is traditionally the month for employees to begin new jobs. Since transferees cannot wait until Spring to buy, you must be on the market now to capture that market! 9. You can still be on the market, but you have the option to restrict showings during the six or seven days during the Holidays! 10. You can sell now for more money and we will provide for a delayed closing or extended occupancy until early next year! 11. By selling now, you may have an opportunity to be a non-contingent buyer during the Spring, when many more houses are on the market for less money! This will allow you to sell high and buy low!

New Review on Trulia!

"Amanda put us first - looked out for our best interest. She knew the area market and worked that to our advantage. She was both energetic and enjoyable to work with. Amanda responded quickly to phone calls, texts and emails. If she was tied up in a closing, her team responded quickly. She kept us informed of market conditions and surrounding sales through her newsletter. I highly recommend Amanda and her team." -- John W. To see more reviews, click here

RED DAY!

I was proud to participate with my team and entire Winston-Salem Keller Williams office in the sprucing up and cleaning of the Davis House. We had fun, worked hard, and enjoyed every minute of giving back to this community we all hold so dear our hearts! See more pictures on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/theshoreteam

Red Day Is Coming!

Introduced in 2009, RED Day, which stands for Renew, Energize and Donate, is Keller Williams Realty's annual day of service. Each year on the second Thursday of May, associates spend the day away from their businesses serving worthy organizations and causes in their communities. RED Day is just another example of our commitment to each other and to the cities and towns where we live and work. Join us!

Time Flies and Change Happens!

It has been a while since my last post, but there sure has been a lot happening in the world of The Shore Team!  Mark, Lisa, and I are very excited to announce that we will be a part of bringing a Keller Williams franchise to Winston-Salem!  KW is a HUGE player in the national real estate scene, and while there are some offices in our vicinity, as of now there is not one in Winston-Salem.  But, all of that is about to change!  We are partnering with some other like minded, motivated, full time, and LOCAL agents to bring the franchise here, and we could not be more enthusiastic about this. While the official change happened Friday, this morning several of our team members had the chance to sit down and really dig into some of the tools that KW has to offer its agents -- HOLY SMOKES!  We are blown away, and it was just the tip of the iceberg!  For those customers that are sticking with us, we appreciate your patience as we make this transition, but it WILL be worth it!
