Marjorie Gets Real: May 2018

Marjorie's updates from the pitching mound... and the DC real estate market!

Rhett’s First Pitch… NW Little League, His Final Pitch…

CONEY ISLAND, NY During the first four innings of the season finale at MCU Park, four Emory pitchers were rocked for 12 hits and 11 runs. Rhett took the mound in the bottom of the fifth inning with the Eagles behind 11-3.

He shut out NYU in the final 4 innings, allowing only one infield hit. While Rhett held NYU scoreless, his teammates chipped away at the lead, but fell short, losing 11-7. Emory finished with a winning record, 20-18, but a far cry from the previous 3 seasons… invitations to 3 NCAA Regional Tournaments and advancing to two College World Series!

Supply & Demand! Demand! Demand!

WASHINGTON, DC I’m not an economist, but I understand supply & demand. We are living the record imbalance every single day in the local real estate market. Inventory is at an all-time low and buyers have never been more frustrated.

Houses are selling before hitting the market. Buyers are competing for new listings. Homes are frequently selling for tens of thousands and sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars more than full price.

Last issue, we featured a photo of a home in Observatory Circle… we sold it for $55,000 more than full price before it went in Multiple Listing.

Gosh, selling houses in this market must be a “piece of cake”. Houses just sell themselves. Your agent doesn’t really make any difference.

Don’t believe it! It has never been more important to be represented by a seasoned strategic advisor and extraordinary negotiator to sell your home. Find one whose sellers consistently put more money in their pocket. Otherwise... You risk leaving a fortune on the table!
