If you want to sell your home in the coming months, you'll be wondering about pricing your home correctly. Setting your home price fairly has a major impact on how fast your home sells. In some cases, it will make or break a sale. There's no overestimating the importance of this step when setting your house up for sale, especially now that the real estate market is beginning to show signs of slowing down after the rollercoaster of the pandemic years.

1031 Exchange Realtor

1031 Exchange Buyers/Sellers – We Have Your Back!

We often come across clients who are playing with the idea of a 1031 exchange to save them from getting taxed when selling an investment property and looking to purchase another. It is important to have all the facts when deciding whether or not to use the power of the 1031 exchange.

A 1031 exchange is the swap of properties that are held for business or investment purposes, and if you meet the property criteria you will either have no tax or limited tax due on the exchange.

As Realtors we have a lot of experience with 1031 exchange clients and understand that time is not a luxury you have! (The government literally gives you a deadline)

LIST PRICE: $440,000 | MLS: 366744

Diana's sellers reached out to her after finding their dream house while on a getaway.

2. Things you did that you're proud of.

Sometimes we're too hard on ourselves and need a little prodding to take stock of what we did well. It's okay to give yourself a little pat on the back. What were your successes? It doesn't…
