We're not quite ready to buy but I've been definitely looking on MLS regularly. And time and time again I am surprised by what I see. I understand that there may be different priorities in selling a house from Winnipeg to Steinbach but I definitely do not see this level of... I don't know what to call it... professionalism, editing, trying to actually sell a house... when I look at listings from some of the real estate agents in Steinbach.
Some of the things I have noticed as a future home buyer that reallllly turn me off
- one ad I looked at today had this in the listing "in mittle off town" aka in the middle of town. You must have someone else in the office that can look at your ad before you put it on MLS
- no pictures with an ad, I personally probably would not go look at a house unless I saw pictures online
- however no pictures might be better then looking at pictures of people's mess. If you're trying to sell it- make it look worth buying. This includes putting your dishes away, making your bed, arranging your furniture so it looks presentable.
Ok, rant over. I was going to blog on something else today, but I guess I'll do that tomorrow or maybe if you're lucky later tonight!!
Cheers!

When we were house hunting here in the city, we went to one open house (for sale by owner) and he had porno pictures up everywhere! Another one smelt so badly of cat pee we could barely make it through the house before needing to get out and get some fresh air. What are some people thinking??
Yeah, making a good first impression just isn't everyone's top priority, obviously. Weird, when that's what's going to sell your house....
Good luck with the search!
Hey Krista, nice seeing you up at camp! I've got this cute little place in Niverville if you're interested . . .
We looked at some odd places too! Good luck with the search!
