Showing your West Sacramento Short Sale Home

One of the hesitations many West Sacramento Short Sale homeowners have in a West Sacramento Short Sale is making the home available for showings prior to getting an offer and I can understand why. While there are a few cases where the West Sacramento Short Sale is more of a Strategic Default than a true hardship, for the most part, selling your home in a West Sacramento Short Sale is not a happy event. Yes they are happy about getting out from under the debt but really most folks would just like to stay if the payment was manageable.

 

So back to the comment: The answer is yes when you Short Sale your house you do have to show the property until we receive an offer.

Now there is more than one way to skin a cat so to say. In Sacramento County as in much of the country, inventory is scarce and interest rates are low. There are WAY more buyers than sellers. Now Realtors may not like my approach but truth be told my fiduciary is to my client, the seller and the seller alone. Look up the word client in the Dictionary. It says “one that is under the protection of another”. In a West Sacramento Short Sale as in any transaction I take that seriously. In a West Sacramento Short Sale to me it means shielding the client from unnecessary disturbances and disruptions to their already troubled lives.

To accomplish that we have resorted to either appointments only or the more favored 3 hour showing window. While this is not an effective tool in a neutral or buyer’s market, it certainly is effective in a strong seller’s market. During one of our showing windows we will typically have anywhere from 5-15 and as many as 30 agents and their clients come through. The small window creates an auction atmosphere and we generally receive multiple offers for the property. We make sure the date is posted well in advance and always hold it on a Saturday to allow the greatest number of agents and their clients to come through.

The results are our clients are disturbed the one day and then for only a couple of hours, we get multiple offers on the property and we are able to move forward with the getting the West Sacramento Short Sale into negotiations with the Bank as quickly as possible.
