The Carmel Valley market can probably be split into two separate segments, under and over $1,000,000. With the Fannie/Freddie/FHA limit being $697,500 and most buyers having a healthy down payment, the supply and demand is fairly balanced under $1,000,000. It’s when you go over $1 million that it gets a bit squishy.
I’ve been a big proponent of agents doing their own video tours of listings, and this guy has one! It probably played a role in him finding his own buyer in just seven days: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8iQPpi6sOo
That agent’s video isn’t as good as Jim’s videos, but I do like the added value of the soccer ball icon.
That was a nice house. The presentation didn’t have Jim’s polish and flair but that will come with practice.
When I discovered this site (about 6 months ago) I watched all the videos at once. There was a good 6 hours of video! Video should be in every realtor’s toolbox and hopefully each realtor that starts using it will take a look at Jim’s open and honest presentation.
I especially look forward to seeing other realtors’ approach to the “hammered!” R.E.O..
