 3 Reasons Your House Didn't Sell Your phone is ringing off the hook AFTER your home came OFF the market.  The calls are from real estate agents in your area that want you to list your home with them.  They are going to tell you that your home should have sold.  They are going to tell you that they can sell your home.  They have some kind of magic your last real estate agent didn't have.  However, are they going to tell you the truth or are they just going to throw spaghetti on the wall like the last real estate agent.   Spaghetti on the wall?  That's what we at HOMEFRONT Realty call the "let's see what happens" marketing technique.  Ever cook spaghetti?  One way to see if its done is to throw it against the wall and see if it will stick.  If it does, its done and if it doesn't then its...

PORT ORCHARD MOVE-UP BUYER July 31, 2013 by Jo Soss  The last few years have been very difficult for home sellers.  But, now with the market on the mend you might want to think about becoming a move-up buyer.  The move-up buyer is a homeowner who has to sell their current home to move UP to maybe their dream home.  Did you purchase your first home prior to the market decline?  You might be able to make the step up to a home that fits your needs more than your “first-time-buyer” home.  Your life has probably changed which means your housing needs probably have also.
