Anyway that term refer translate as my house is not a place for you to come over, eat my potato chips, drink my soda, and play my video systems so get out your not my friend. And I appreciate the draft translation as giving to me by the friendly chatters@live.pro.com, who at this very moment as you are watching this video are likely talking about that very thing video games. They would not shout up about it everyday is like round hug date they always talking about it apparently a video are a way of life now. Anyway I have a top 10 list that has nothing to a video games but it does not do with the house. Maybe your house, maybe you do not have a house yet, maybe you want a house but you do not really know how to get a house. Well JC Geek girl from the chat room decided to submit this list and yes is a Pro to geek and a girl, which is very appropriate because you know calling her Fred would just kind be confusing in a lot of ways. Maybe she is Fred; I do not know it is the internet. On the internet nobody knows you are a dog. She says “hey Chris I have been watching your stream for a short while and I just wanted to come up with the some tips that will hopefully come handy if you have you use them yet? Now, she works in a company involve in real state and so her tips are real estate related, very targeted, very good. 10 tips in fact this tips wonderfully written but so extensive like extensive like long extensive that I am not going to be able read the whole thing. I am going to you know do may best to make through of you and I am going to skim so if you want the full notes, you want to read the blog entry on my blog@chris.pirillo.com or what could you do is basically probably go the real estate tips Pirillo and find it that post that way like honestly as easy way to find stuff on my blog is going to Google it is kind of sad. 1. You do not have to use an agent. I cannot stress this enough. Agents have made the process of buying/selling property such a mystery, many people are afraid to embark on this journey without one. However there are instances where an agent is a good idea. Such as, you live another state from the property and need someone to show it or you don’t have the time to hit the payment and do the works of a real estate agent might sell on your own. Or work in real estate agent to sell on your own. So the bottom line there is if you take a lot of time out of your regular day to do the research on your own. You can really do a lot on your own and we have gone through agents before and Ponzy my wife, her back ground is in the meridian industry so we are able to navigate a lot of paper work and I tell you. I mean I almost wish she could make a business out of it because she is, she does not work in the Morgozon industry anymore because for a lot of reasons. I am not saying this because she is my wife and she is not going to do this necessarily but if you had anybody review your documentation for your mortgage or refining or anything. Ponzy is the person to trust. I am not saying this because she is my wife; I am saying it because it is an absolute fact. She saves so many of our friends, money by demystifying the documentation it is been amazing but she said the same thing about you know agencies well. I mean she know how this game works. 2. You still need to advertise. There is no an agent doing the work for you, get ads in the local paper, for sale magazines, put signs up where you are allowed to post handbills, and hold an open house as often as possible. The more people you advertise to, the more people will see the property, increasing your chances of selling and possibly the length of time in which you sell. It is very true and to do research, Ponzy still loves doing this. She watches all those home improvement shows or like flip this house or sell this house, or improve my house or all those choice and you learn so much and you get ideas about you know how to do it next or you know even how to make the house that you live and even better you know with small tips and tricks that really do not cost a lot. 3. The MLS is your friend. That stands for Multiple Listing Service. Data base realtors use to search out homes for buyers. For years, by owner sellers have not been able to use it, but things are different now. Many agents across the country will offer you an MLS and or realtor listing for a flat rate. It may be the only service they provide at that low, flat rate. That potentially puts your property in front of millions of people that would not otherwise see it. I will tell you we look at a lot of houses in the area and this particular house that we move into, well we are able to do it because Ponzy fancy foot work with the mortgage documentation in her understanding but I found it like I was literally searching on those site and said “this one looks good”, it has everything that we want and so we come out to and take a look and you know it end up be in the house that we got and we love it, we love our house. 4. Not all “By owner” websites are the same. Each one is owned by a different company. When a friend refers you, find out exactly what the address is, so you know where you are really getting referred to. When you place an ad, write down the company name, address, phone number, email addresses and your specific ad information. This is very helpful to have so you can come back to it later. Many companies take advantage of the play on words. Different angles have for Sale by Owner. Some charge more than others, too. And she goes into a little bit a research tips as well. I know he want it to move to another, he is still wicket still upset, he want to move somewhere else and we said no it is not possible. It was too small, it is basically like a one bedroom but like a more like dog house size. I could not fir my manners in there. We cannot move there, right. 5. Now that you have listed your property somewhere, it is time for the contracts and inquiries to roll in, right?
