ERA Justin Report: Markets suggest 2015 is the time to buy a home
 
What are the most important things a seller should look for when hiring a real estate agent to sell their house? How many houses has the agency sold and closed in the town in which they are located? Is it the size of the company with branches outside the market area valuable?  Details of their  marketing program? Their years experience in the business within the town you are located in?
 
There are many things that should be taken into consideration when hiring someone and giving them the responsibility for selling your home. According to ERA Justin Realty Broker Realtor Glenn Elliot with decades of areas successes, "With information from the well respected KCM group, we agree these things are needed to be answered and in our opinion, important questions you can ask a potential listing agent. Do you truly believe that now is a good time to buy a home and selecting the right firm and agent to represent you.
 
Why should this matter when hiring someone to sell your home? Although buyers are back, they do have questions about purchasing right now. They want to know they are making an intelligent choice and are being guided by the proper agent. We believe, especially in today’s market, you need to hire someone who realizes that this is one of the best times in American real estate history to buy. If an agent doesn't believe that, how will they be able to convey this to a potential buyer to buy your home?
 
When interviewing a real estate professional, ask them to explain why purchasing a home makes sense today. They should be able to explain it simply and effectively."
 
Glenn continued, "These positive quotes were noted." The Wall Street Journal  stated: “With home sales starting to improve  real estate could well be the asset class that represents the best low-risk buying opportunity out there today.” Donald Trump said, “I'm pretty sure this is a great time to go out and buy a house. And if you do, in 10 years you're going to look back and say, ‘You know, I'm glad I listened to Donald Trump’. John Paulson, a multibillionaire hedge fund operator and the investment genius who made a killing betting against housing a few years ago, is now bullish on residential real estate market. He said," If you don’t own a home, buy one. If you own one home, buy another one. If you own two homes, buy a third. And, lend your relatives the money to buy a home.” These may be over simplifications, but a Gallup Poll showed that 67% of American’s think that now is a ‘good time’ to buy a home. The Gallup Organization went on to say, “Overall, there is good reason for most Americans to think now is a good time to buy a house. Interest rates remain near historic lows. Home prices are providing many incredible buys.”
 
According to Ron Darby Broker Co-owner, “We work with our agents each day to help them achieve the goals of their buyers and sellers, and  the spring 2015 season is just in front of us.  In a constant changing real estate industry we invite new agents to join us. We want them to have the education needed for success. Opportunities are just a  phone call away by calling Jennifer Darby Metzger at (201) 401-6133.

We also provide buyer potential with strong advertising for South Bergen County.  A full color page advertisements of our listings in The South Bergenite brings an abundance of potential buyers to our agents for their buyers while giving our sellers strong marketing exposure.  We proudly are considered a real estate market leader by thousands of sellers and buyers since 1950 and hope to be the Realtor of choice to thousands more in the upcoming years."
