And I would like to talk about a New Year's resolution that I have. And that resolution is assisting as many ready, willing and able buyers and sellers this year.
Unknown Speaker 1:33
I know there are some listeners out there that have thought this through that this is going to be your year to finally achieve your goal of purchasing a home or selling your existing home. This is what I do. I eat, sleep and breathe real estate. And I am here to assist you in realizing your real estate goals. And the American Dream whether it's purchasing a home, or selling your existing home and making a nice profit. It's a team effort. And I am going to guide you across to the finish line for all your real estate needs. My number is 702-596-1267 that 7025961 to six seven if you would like more information on how I can help you to achieve your real estate goals for 2024. And please don't feel that you're doing this alone on your journey to homeownership or selling an existing home you own. There may be someone listening this morning, that may feel well overwhelmed just thinking about the process and all the necessary steps to be done. However, this is why I exists. This is what I do for a career. Let me take the worry and the stress away from you, since you would be hiring me to guide you and to be your voice throughout the home purchasing and selling process. And again, my number is 702-596-1267. Now there may be some sellers listening right now that just don't have the funds to do the necessary repairs on their home. In order to sell the home for the top dollar that it would take you know getting the home ready so that buyers will attract to it and not back out as soon as they do the home inspections. And for the sellers that are in this situation. I can explain to you about a program through my company of Coldwell Banker Premier Realty that will allow you to have the repair work professionally done upfront and not have to pay for the repairs until the home is sold. If you would like more information on this program, and if your home qualifies for this program. My number again is 702-596-1267. Also, I can offer complimentary radio advertisement for your home as well on my show, so every third Sunday of the month at 830 If you would like I can also exposure home through radio. And I know there are some people listening to my show right now. And you're also going through a divorce and unfortunately, the state of Nevada is pretty high percentage wise for the United States on people getting divorced. And you're thinking the home needs to be sold as soon as possible. And for the top dollar who
Unknown Speaker 5:00
Well, unfortunately, I am well versed with these types of home sells and can help you move forward with this situation. And without taking sides, I can give you my word. And I promise, I promise, I'm not here to judge either one of you, and decide with one of you over the other. So don't, you don't have to be concerned with that. And just because I am a female does not mean let's say, for example, I will take sides with the wife, my job, and what you would be hiring me for, is to sell your home for the highest market value possible in the least amount of time possible. And to treat both the husband and the wife as my equal clients. This transaction of assisting you as a divorcing couple would be a safe place, and a complete judge free zone. And if you are interested in making an appointment with me, to learn how I have done business, with countless amounts of divorcing couples over the yours, my number is 702-596-1267 to make that first step in the process of getting your home sold, so that you both can move on with your life. And a home is normally someone's most expensive asset. And I do take my job seriously for all my seller clients. And I know there must be some people listening right now, that may have to move out of town or may have a job transfer and are needing to sell your home and are feeling a bit overwhelmed with the thought of moving and having to start over. Now I am here to help you to not have to feel this overwhelming feeling. And my company offers a concierge brochure that has all kinds of vendors, from A to Z for anything you need for for your move, or repair work, or repair work that my company has a business relationship with. And that I can recommend to you for being my client that will free up your time from having to research the different movers and let's say individual repair companies, which can give you a lot of relief and peace of mind as well. So you don't have to hunt and find vendors and moving companies. And to all the listeners out there. This is a new year to realize your goals. And if purchasing or selling a home is one of those New Year's resolutions. I'm here for you, the customer. I'm here to be your eyes and ears. I'm here to be your voice throughout the buying and selling process. I'm here to make sure that things go as smooth as possible. With the buying and selling transaction. I'm here to oversee all the steps to the transaction. I'm here to assist in solving any issues that may come up in the process. Even after the transaction is 100% Complete. I will check on you to see how things are going. And if you're enjoying your home or if you're ready to purchase another home if I sold your existing home.
Unknown Speaker 8:33
Also, don't forget I mentioned earlier about the real vitalised program that will allow you as a seller to have repairs done on your home upfront. And you don't have to worry about you know fronting the payment upfront for the repairs until your home is sold and closed. This is a great way to get the top market dollar for your home without the hassle of lowball offers because of the home not being in good condition. And again, if you'd like more information about this, my number is 702-596-1267 to make an appointment to find out more about the program or anything that you may have questions about at all for the buyers and for the buyers that are listening to my show this morning. I talked on my previous show about there that there are some builders that are buying the interest rate quite a ways down from the current interest rate because some of the builders have their own mortgage company so they can afford to do that for the buyers while the program while this incentive lasts I don't know when it goes away. So let me know if you're interested. And now with new construction, I do need to accompany you on the very first visit and
Unknown Speaker 10:00
register you so that you will have what we call buyer representation. Since the realtors working directly at the new home community represent the builder only. As a matter of fact, there is a document you sign when you sign the builders purchase contract that does state that you are you as the buyer understand that the onsite Realtors at the new home community represent the builder. And they want to make sure you understand that you would have if you don't have your own agent like myself, you're really representing yourself. Now if you want a resale home, not a new home, there are ways to to buy down the interest rate by either getting the seller to contribute to the buy down of the interest rate or you can pay to buy down the interest rate if you do have the funds or possibly sharing in that expense doing a 5050 for you to pay and the seller to pay 5050 between the two of you to buy down your interest rate so that you can make the monthly payments lower and more comfortable for you. And I do service all of Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Boulder City, Pahrump and mesquite because I'm a full time realtor and broker associate. And I have service mainly all areas of southern Nevada, I've been doing it so long, it's been over 30 years. So I I do have knowledge of all the areas pretty much in Southern Nevada, and life, we all have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable sometimes. I know I never would have thought I would be doing my own real estate show. However, here I am doing it. I never thought I would have a real estate commercial on the television. But I do have one. I never thought I would be live on the air of a radio station every third Thursday around 1:25pm. And now I am. I guess what I'm trying to tell you the listeners right now is to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. And if I can be doing all this, so can you. And then this life unless you were born with a silver spoon, so to speak, you've heard that expression. And let's say unless you've inherited wealth, you will, you will have to take chances if this isn't you and do things that are uncomfortable to get to where you want to be in life financially. And if you know deep down inside that this is your year to make a move for buying or selling real estate. My number again is 702-596-1267. Let's talk let's meet, let's get the ball rolling, taking the initial steps necessary to achieve your real estate goals. And I mentioned a little bit earlier touching on the divorce thing again, that is pretty high for divorce. And I don't like the idea that this is the fact but I know there are some listeners unfortunately, that do that actually do need to sell the home. And quite frankly, if you don't go with the right realtor, and I'm not saying that I have to be your realtor, we'd have to get together to see if we're a good fit for each other. But I do know that I'm good at being neutral. And I do know that since it is inevitable that this is going to happen that you do want someone on your side that is working in the best interests of both of you equally doesn't say take sides and someone that will be focused on getting you the highest dollar of highest market dollar for your home and also touching a little bit on new home construction. There might be some listeners that have never purchased a new new home straight from from the builder before and they have certain rules and guidelines. And one of the rules is I must bring you through the front door of the sales office where the model home exists. On the first visit register you on paper then after that you can go back by yourself after I register you. Sometimes I can even do a telephone reservation reservation I can register you through by telephone. If if let's say you're in front
Unknown Speaker 15:00
other community already, and I can't be there right, then sometimes the builders will allow that. But do not just walk and get excited and just walk through the front doors, because it's not like you're going to save any money. By not having buyer representation from me as your real estate agent, it doesn't work that way. It's against the law for them to
Unknown Speaker 15:25
make it one price for you with or without buyer representation. So I can actually help you, I can refer to you. Third party home inspectors, even though you're getting warranties, I have a list of home inspectors that you could choose from that do third party home inspections, which is really super important. When purchasing any home, especially a new home, even though there's warranties, you don't want to hassle with waiting around for their vendors after the fact after you've moved in to take care of things not knowing exactly what day they're coming to take care of them. So it's always good to have a third party home inspection, and even open houses. I don't think I've ever really touched on open houses. But let's say we get together you hire me as your real estate agent, but one Sunday or Saturday or whatever the case is, you just happen to walk into an open house without me. That's not a good idea either. Because sometimes just depending on the real estate agent that's representing the seller doing that open house, sometimes they will not allow you representation, buyer representation and the person that's holding the open houses, typically, the sellers, realtor or an assistant to the sellers realtor. And that's really not a good idea. You want your own representation. And then there's the thing about interest rates right now.
Unknown Speaker 16:55
With interest rates, at one time being three, or in the three of percent, there's people that are thinking, Oh, I'm gonna wait for that 3% to happen again. Well, guess what, I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon. But I don't have a crystal ball. But the indication is, that's not gonna happen in the near future unless we have a tragedy like a pandemic or something. Who knows. And I rather have a higher interest rate than a pandemic, right. But overall, there's ways to work with the higher rates, there's ways to buy it down, as I was mentioning earlier, if you want that lower
Unknown Speaker 17:34
interest rate to get a lower payment, don't feel like this is the end all of all things just because the rate is not this, what it was the last couple of years or so, there's ways to work with that. So I just want to let people know that there's options and I'm here to let someone know all of their options so that you can make an informed decision on if this is a good time for you. And if it is, fine, there's no real bad time to purchase a home or to sell a home. It just depends on your individual circumstance, some areas have appreciated higher than others, the market really hasn't fallen to a point where it's not a good time, for the most part and for most areas of southern Nevada. So it just depends. It depends on if you have more than one mortgage, if you have, like more than one mortgage, we'd have to see what kind of equity that you've built up. But however, if it is good, fine, if it's not, I'm here for you, I'll stay in touch with you until it is but for a lot of you that think that it's not a bad time. It might be because you don't know all your options. You're just listening to family, friends, news and news can be a blindsided thing if you're not
Unknown Speaker 18:55
a aware of what's happening in your particular town, not or your particular state. So next, get off that bandwagon. But I thought you should know. Because I'm here to be totally transparent to real to help you realize the American dream of homeownership or building wealth through real estate by selling your home. And now I would like to talk about the stats for the stats don't include new construction, by the way, these are all resale home sells for Southern Nevada for the month of December. So we're going through resale, not new. That's a totally different subject. So please understand that I'm not telling you these stats to bore you. It's to educate the listeners that want the most knowledge as they move ahead with the buying and selling process. After all knowledge is power. And the more knowledge you have, the more powerful you will be with your real estate transaction. So here goes the number of homes sold in December. Why
Unknown Speaker 20:00
was 1518 and this is for single family homes. The median price of single family homes sold was 449,900. There were 1500 new single family homes listed in December. And the median price of new single family home listings was $465,000. And there were 3766. That was the number of single family homes listings in December without offers on them. This is without offers on them. And now we will switch to the townhomes and condos combined. Now there were 463 condo townhome condos or townhomes sold, and 270,000 was the median price of a condo or townhome sold in December. And there were 501 new condo townhome listings in
Unknown Speaker 21:06
in December, and 289,000 was the median price of all condo townhome new listings, and 284,900 99,000 is the median price of all condo townhomes. Excluding offers, okay, and 57.6 of all single family homes sold within 30 days of let or less in December from the time they went on the market to the time they contract it with a buyer, and 59.4% of all condos or townhomes sold in 30 days or less, also in the month of December.
