Homes For Sale With Large Price Reductions

How To Find Vulnerable Home Sellers

Some of the best deals in real estate come from situations where the seller's resolve to get top dollar has been weakened by a poor marketing plan. Here's what I mean.

As I write this, we are in a strong seller's market. That means that home sellers control the market and buyers are lucky to even find a home they like. So how can a buyer find a deal under these market conditions?

Even with conditions as they are, about 1 in 4 homes is failing to sell right now. That's right, a seller hires a real estate agent, the property is listed in the Tallahassee MLS, and then 6 months later the property is still not sold.

How can that be? There are not enough homes for sale on the market, and buyers are often joining bidding wars where many buyers are trying to get the same house. So how can homes go unsold?

It's simple. Poor marketing.

Some homes fail to attract the right buyers who should want the home. So if you are looking for a great deal, all you have to do is go out and find those homes that other buyers are failing to see.

Homes With Price Reductions Are Good Suspects

The prudent seller hits the market strong with a powerful real estate marketing plan and a price that will attract many buyers. But this doesn't always happen.

When a home is incorrectly marketed, the only solution for the home seller is to either remove it from the market or reduce the asking price in the hopes that a new buyer pool will find it more appealing.

A seller who reduces the asking price by 10% or more is one who is showing a change in motivation and thus the listing could be ripe for a great deal.

This is not an absolute, but searching for homes with price reductions is a great habit to form if you are looking for a killer deal.
