Still, she made a very negative impression with her less than welcoming inquiry as to whether she could help me find something.
As a real estate agent I don''t judge the neighborhood by one foul mouthed neighbor. But out of town buyers may not know the "story" behind this exception.
Part of selling your home is selling your neighborhood.
If you are getting ready to sell your Melbourne, Florida home take a good look at your neighborhood.
Think about the things that you may find annoying about your neighbors…disruptive or loud, a yard with absolutely no curb appeal, a home with obvious deferred maintenance, several nuisance dogs who bark constantly, etc.
When I work with buyers I almost always suggest they drive through the neighborhood during the late afternoon or on the weekend. Take a look at what things are like when kids are not in school and most are home from work.
I sometimes suggest buyers question neighbors. If I do it I am sure other agents do as well.
When I go on listing appointments I always ask about the neighbors. Almost 100% of the time the answer is the same. Never met a seller who said they had a jerk for a neighbor....nope, always the salt of the earth!
When you are ready to sell your home, enlist your neighbors help, if possible. You want to make your home stand out.
Sometimes the one thing that makes your home stand out are your neighbors – for good or bad!
Your neighbors will be involved...make it a positive!
