This is the Market for Hard to Sell Sacramento Homes

Selling hard to sell Sacramento homes is a speciality for Elizabeth Weintraub, Sacramento Realtor.

Disappointed or frustrated home sellers who couldn’t sell last year or those who foresee particular challenges with home selling, should realize that this Sacramento real estate market is the perfect time to list those hard to sell Sacramento homes. Because home buyers will look past defects and, due to limited number of homes for sale, might be forced to bid on your house simply because they can’t buy anything else. If you couldn’t sell that home previously, now is your time, providing you hire the right Sacramento Realtor.

Now you might wonder, why would a Sacramento Realtor willingly advertise that she is ready, willing and able to tackle the difficult homes? Why wouldn’t she want to work only on luxury homes in Sacramento or the prettiest of all listings? Perhaps she likes to work on them all. Each home presents its own unique challenges, regardless of how simple the seller might think the home is to sell. Often the question is not whether it will sell but whether it will close and close without drama. And that can happen as well with hard to sell Sacramento homes.

I noticed a for sale sign went up on a home in Land Park recently, which I had showed about 5 years ago. Nobody wanted to buy the home then because it had laminate flooring over hardwood, the character was stripped out and it backed up to a wall. It also featured a weird layout, seemed to have been designed by a bachelor with way too much time on his hands. It was not really a family home in the sense that we think of those types of homes. When I saw the sign go up, I predicted it would finally sell. It closed last week.

This is not the only challenged home. There are many hard to sell Sacramento homes in Land Park and surrounding areas that deserve to be on the market right now. Before the big push comes, if it ever comes this spring, and the way things are going, it might not. We have such incredibly low inventory, a spattering of 1,752 are for sale in Sacramento County, and a whopping 2,879 homes are pending. This means we have more buyers than we have homes for sale.

Buyers who will be willing to install their own flooring, especially if your carpeting is worn and tired. Buyers who will paint those kitchen cabinets or replace them. Buyers who gladly will take a 2-year roof certification with repairs than demand a brand new roof. Buyers who just want a roof over their, four walls and a place to call home, even if it’s not perfect. I can sell those hard to sell Sacramento homes for top dollar.

If you’re ready to put the past behind you and capitalize on today’s market, call Elizabeth Weintraub at 916.233.6759. I have the expertise and knowledge to move that fixer home.
