Better Photos Sell Your Home

If you’re looking to see your house and move into a new one and settle into a new neighborhood, taking better photos might be the answer. The Wall Street journal suggests that better pictures that place your home in a better light can gain you a little leverage on the bargaining table. According to a new survey done by Redfin, The Wallstreet Journal says that home sellers who posted photos taken by higher end single lens reflex camera ‘landed sale prices that were from $934 to $116,076 more than the home listings that posted photos from a point and shoot camera. These homes also got more potential home buyers to browse the home listings. If you’re desperately trying to sell your home and command a higher price tag for it, the Jacksonville movers suggest maybe hiring a professional photographer who’s got the talent and correct camera equipment to make your home shine. That way you’ll be moving with the All My Sons of Jacksonville team in no time.

Thanks Jacksonville Movers

Thank you for providing your professional moving services to help me move from my old home in Jacksonville to my new home in Jacksonville. You guys were a really reliable team of movers and have truly helped me and my wife out. We both work such hectic jobs that moving seemed just like an overwhelming task to take on, on top of everything else. Our friend Jeff had used your moving services several months ago and was very happy with your moving company’s customer service. He mentioned your moving company over dinner when we had announced that we sold our house and would have to move in the next month.
Your All My Sons of Jacksonville movers took care of safely transporting our furniture out of our home, they moved all our wardrobe and moving boxes and made sure nothing got damaged. It was really impressive to see movers take their job very seriously and wanting to deliver the very best service to their customers. That’s how I operate at work and it was nice to see others do the same. Thanks for a great move. This moving review was by Allan B. Jacksonville, FL

Home Sales

According to the National Association of Realtors, 4.3% more from the month of July of home buyers contracted to purchase a home and up 5.2% from the month of June. However after the homebuyer tax credit expiring in April home sales decreased in May by 30%, followed by another 2.6% decrease in June. August 2010 compared to August 2009 was 20.1% lower in pending home sales. Even with low home prices and historically low mortgage interest rates, people still need to work in order to afford a home. So the real estate recovery still depends a lot of job creation and unemployment rate, as well as consumer confidence. Some are saying that people would buy more homes if they felt that this was their last time to buy at a great bargain. Some say with higher mortgage interest rates hitting the market, this fear can be created.
Are you on the fence about buying a home? Do you wonder if this is the right time to buy? Whatever you decide, make sure you call the Jacksonville movers to help you on moving day. With such professional residential moving services and an amazing reputation, you’ll be glad you did.

Foreclosures in the News

Because of the latest scandals surrounding the foreclosure robo-signing, there are many questions about whether or not the foreclosures are legal. Right now, in some states, the Jacksonville movers found out that foreclosures are being put on hold while lenders and title companies decide if their court actions were done correctly, this according to MSN. The situation means that people facing foreclosure will probably be able to stay in their home without paying their mortgage for a longer period of time while everything gets sorted out.
Already in Florida, it takes about 578 days to foreclose on a home, starting from the notice of default to the homeowner. Lengthy investigations are to be expected setting back even more the real estate situation across the US. These investigations are to determine if the foreclosures were done correctly and even figure out who actually owns these foreclosed homes.
If your home was foreclosed on properly and you need to move out, call the All My Sons of Jacksonville movers for stress free moving services. We’re a licensed and insured local Jacksonville moving company with a great reputation in the public as well as the moving industry.
