Get Your ASK In Gear And Get Your House Sold in Missoula Montana

Missoula Real Estate By Kevin & Monica Ray (Access Realty) — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 12:53:08 -0600

Some great tips on interview listing agents, it pays to do your research:

Via Sharon Tara New Hampshire Home Stager (Sharon Tara Transformations):

Putting your house on the market? One of the most important decisions you will make is choosing the professionals who will help you sell. Not all Realtors and Home Stagers are created equal.

Just because they are professional, it doesn't mean they are proficient.

In order to choose the right professionals, you are going to have to invest some time.

This is not a decision to take lightly.

You are going to have to ask a lot of questions.

Get your ASK in gear if you want to get your house sold!

When choosing a professional, it is best to interview at least three candidates.  Don't be afraid to ask a lot of questions...you are depending on them to help sell your greatest asset.

Questions to ask Realtors include:

Are you full or part time?

Do you work predominantly with buyers or sellers?

How knowledgeable are you with my area?

Do you have a website and/or blog? How often do you update your website or blog?

How do you intend to market my property other than listing it on MLS?

Will my property be listed on your website?

Do you use video?

What will the cost be? Are there any fees beyond your commission?

Will I be working directly with you or with an assistant?

Can you provide references?

Questions to ask a Home Stager include:

How long have you been in business?

Do you specialize in occupied or vacant properties?

Are you familiar with my area and do you know the target buyer for my home?

Do you have a portfolio of your work?

Are the photos of your actual work, or do you use stock photos?

Do you provide digital photos of your completed work? What is the cost?

Are you registered with the state?

Are you fully insured?

What are your rates?

Can you provide references?

NOTE: At this time there is no independent organization that certifies or licenses home stagers, and no government oversight regulating home staging business practices. If a home stager has a designation after their name, it comes from whatever training courses they have taken.

Ask questions to get answers to what is important to you. You are not looking for the "best" realtor or stager. You are looking for the best realtor or stager for you. Make your selection based on the answers given and how comfortable the people make you feel.

My Dream Home Has Radon! Tips for Missoula Real Estate Buyers and Sellers

Missoula Real Estate By Kevin & Monica Ray (Access Realty) — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 08:20:35 -0600

We have seen several dream homes with high levels of radon and have worked with both buyers and sellers through this process.

It can be frightening to have your home inspector tell you that your dream home has high levels of radon. Before you put your dream on hold, learn about radon and radon remediation.

According to the EPA, Radon is an invisible radioactive gas that seeps into homes undetected through foundation cracks, and can reach harmful levels if trapped indoors. It travels up from underground sources of uranium in the earth's crust. EPA estimates that one in 15 homes will have a radon level of four PicoCuries per liter (pCi/L) of air or more, a level the agency considers high.

Here's the scary part:

--Breathing home indoor radon causes nearly one hundred times more deaths each year than carbon monoxide poisoning.

--Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking.

--Some 20,000 people will die this year due to breathing too much radon without even knowing it.

The radon threat is preventable with some simple steps. In existing homes, families can begin protecting themselves by buying an easy-to-use radon test kit to determine if a high level exists; if so, a high level might be lowered simply with a straight-forward radon venting system installed by a contractor. In new homes, builders can easily and economically include radon-resistant features during construction, and home buyers should ask for these. EPA also recommends that home buyers ask their builder to test for radon gas before they move in.

In our area, a professional radon test costs around $75. You can also test your own home for less at http://www.homeradontest.com/. If high levels of radon are found, it is possible to have a radon remediation system installed in your home. This system removes the radon and can bring your home back to normal levels. In our area, a radon remediation system costs between $1200 & $1500. It is less expensive to have one done if you have a full basement. However, our remediator says that he is able to remove more radon from a home when it is on a crawl space instead of a basement. See photo on left for what a remediation system looks like.

RADON SCORES:

Less than 4.0: Low probability of significant health risk
Between 4 & 10: It is recommended to mitigate readings above 4.0. This should be performed within 6-12 months.
Between 10 & 200: Perform mitigation and follow up as soon as possible.

If you are thinking about selling your home, or for your own safety, you might consider getting a radon test. It is important to know that if you are aware of high levels of radon in your home that you must disclose this to all potential buyers. In most cases, it is well worth it to have the test done and remediate the home if necessary. This will eliminate a potential issue on your home inspection, and gives you piece of mind for your family's safety.

Montana is a Great Place for Living or Vacationing Off the Grid

Missoula Real Estate By Kevin & Monica Ray (Access Realty) — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 19:20:02 -0500

According to Wikipedia, living off the grid refers to living in a self-sufficient manner without reliance on one or more public utilities. With rising costs for electricity and a growing consciousness about the environment, we have been seeing a growing demand for properties that are "off the grid" in Western Montana.

True "off the grid" properties do not rely on municipal water, sewer, natural gas, electrical power grid, or similar utility services.

According to an article in USA Today, "Now, in 29 states, homeowners on the grid can get state rebates or tax breaks that subsidize up to 50% or more of the cost of clean energy systems. They then sell the electricity they generate, but don't use themselves, to utilities, offsetting the cost of the power they draw from the grid as they spin their meters backward and drive their electric bills toward zero."

The same article states that, "Some 180,000 families live off-grid, a figure that has jumped 33% a year for a decade, says Richard Perez, publisher of Home Power magazine." And that number is increasing rapidly.

If you are considering living or vacationing off the grid in Western Montana, contact Kevin & Monica Ray today at 406-207-1185. We have several active listings that would be ideal for a primary residence or a vacation home, including:

20 Acres with 2 cabins - one modern with a full kitchen & bath, septic system, a natural spring, creek frontage, a mining claim, and hydro-power! The seller is even willing to finance this amazing property.
5 Acres with 2 rustic cabins with creek frontage and an old diesel generator, horse corrals and various outbuildings for only $119,000!

Missoula Real Estate By Kevin & Monica Ray (Access Realty) — Sat, 15 Sep 2007 19:25:32 -0500

Have any of you advertised on http://www.greenhomesforsale.com/ ? I found out about the website in a brief clip on NBC news tonight about green weddings and how green weddings are popular now and then people shop for a green home.

We have a beautiful home listed in Superior, Montana that is a "Green" construction and would like to get additional exposure to attract people interested in this kind of home. We placed an ad on greenhomesforsale.com for 90 days.

We're trying all of the traditional marketing tactics but want to expand our efforts. Do any of you have other suggestions for additional places for advertising this type of property? Thanks a lot, I'll let you know what kind of response we get from the listing on the above site.
