Hi ActiveRain community, I just did two videos for my listing that has received very few showings and I want to get your feedback. The house is turn key and spotless. It is in a desireable neighborhood. I feel like I have done all the right things of blasting it all over the web. It presents well and it is a good price for the amount of sq ft and all the upgrades. It was a former model in the subdivision.  Please take a look at my 2 videos and give me feedback. I could not fit it all on one video and stay under 2 minutes which is what is recommended so I did the 1st floor and the 2nd floor.      Second one: Thanks for your help! Karen Barbour 919 931-1939

Here in the Cary Apex area of North Carolina we have an abundance of beautiful homes for sale, many of which are in planned communities.  Finding a home for a buyer who wants to live in Brackenridge, Holly Brook, Brighton Forest,  or any of the other lovely neighborhoods can provide a wealth of choices. However, many of today's buyers have particular needs out side of the usual for the property they want to call home. For instance, I recently helped a young couple who were first time home buyers fulfill their unusual needs. They wanted a home with a nice piece of land, not in a neighborhood with many restrictions, and most importantly, they wanted a LARGE garage!. A fenced yard would be nice, plus  they wanted to pay no more than $150,000. Impossible you say? Well, it took a little look...

    If you're looking to snag a great home at a terrific price consider West Oaks subdivision in Fuquay Varina NC.  But you'll have to be quick.  It's an area where very few homes come up on the market but when they do they get snatched up fairly quickly. I have the pleasure of working with a terrific 1st time home buyer that's found a pearl of a home in the West Oaks subdivision.  This ones got it all - updated kitchen with granite counter tops, tiled floor.  And it sits on just under an acre on a cul-de-sac brimming with hardwoods and lush landscaping. And the screened in porch is heavenly overlooking a private back yard. Homes available for sale   This area is just 11 miles south of Raleigh and offers shopping, a couple golf courses close by, and access to major highways, and RDU is...
