Buying or selling in Highland Creek – do it now!
Opportunities within given price ranges are great.
Consider the following.
-Highland Crk, Charlotte has always been a top seller.
Neighborhood owner loyalty was obvious a few years ago. Higher priced homes were offered and many were sold to folks already living in the community.
– The neighborhood grew over the Cabarrus County line. This allowed more price increases offset by a low rate of tax.
– You’d be hard pressed to find a location that’s better. Quick run to the lake, uptown, interstates, malls, lake norman, schools, hospitals…
Hyper growth hit the upperend parts of the community adversely starting in ’08. The upper end got hit hardest because of tightening mortgage requirements. However, this situation is ending.
Existing owners in the community are selling in lower ranges to buy up. Equity swap is the overwhelming push here. Even a $10K ‘loss’ in value in a $250K home is worth it to get a $400k+ homes that has dropped $40K.
The other issue we’ve seen is a crowded market place. As builders sold homes at fire sale prices, resale sales suffered. Foreclosure of course had a negative impact. We’re looking at a different market now, though.
Listed owners have been taught a lesson. Intense competition forced sellers to update to be competitive. Spending a little upfront is rewarding owners big on the back end. Market ready properties are selling for higher, quicker.
Sellers need to give heed to the following advice –
Most important rooms are kitchen and master bath. Granite is important, as are updated fixtures in the bath.
Easy fixes need to be done. Replace lighting and clean the carpets.
Color have to be neutral.
Fix the items in need of repair.
Move animals out of the home when buyers come.
Internet capable realtors are your first stop. SEO work, adwords and a speciality page make huge differences. Example here – Highland Creek Example Web
Please read the following carefully –
No, the buyer won’t see past the personal colors. Buyers don’t know real update costs and will double them mentally. That will be reflected in your sales price. Plan on paying double in your price for what you don’t do now.
The market is still on the side of the buyer. You still have to buy smart.
The amenities available in Highland Crk have always helped sales. Buy a home as close as possible to these features. Get a home close to the pool and/or clubhouse golf course.
Neighborhoods within the community sell for different price rates – get a good agent to help.
The community is expansive. Be close to exits.
Don’t overlook tax savings on the Cabarrus Cnty section.
Check how old the home is. The age will determine maintenance costs. Have a warranty purchased for the house.
