Great article on home staging for sellers

The best tip in this article for home sellers is to remember that when you put your home on the market, it becomes a product; this is difficult for most of us, but if you want to sell your home you must distance yourself from it emotionally.

Market Minute for Midlothian- December 2011

So, just how is the housing market in the Richmond area?  As you can see from the attached Market Minute Report for Midlothian from Long & Foster, it is good!  Inventory is down below 6 months, prices are stabilizing and we have definitely seen an increase in activity- both buyers and sellers.  It is a great time to buy a new home and its actually a great time to sell your home as well.  As long and your home is priced right and is in good condition, it WILL sell!

Check out more Market Minute Reports for other areas of the city on my website at www.scottglass.lnf.com.  And don't forget to call me with any real estate questions or if you are thinking of buying or selling a home.

Thanks.
