“We expect single-family home sales and housing starts to be at the highest
level since 2007.”
Frank E. NothaftChief Economist at Freddie Mac
![Page 21: Weichert Princeton Office April 2014 Princeton Real Estate Market Seminar](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062614/54626be6b1af9f86228b5019/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
"The conditions that led to the robust appreciation experienced earlier this year, including historically low mortgage interest rates, high affordability, low inventory and high demand, are waning. In their
place, we're beginning to see more inventory and rising mortgage rates, which will lead to further
normalization in the market going forward."
Dr. Stan Humphries Zillow Chief Economist
![Page 22: Weichert Princeton Office April 2014 Princeton Real Estate Market Seminar](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062614/54626be6b1af9f86228b5019/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Affordability is still good compared to any time over the last 50 years.
"All those young people who moved in with their parents over the past few
years and didn't move out during the recession, there should be pent-up demand for household formation."
Jed Kolko Trulia’s Chief Economist

Online Estimates
If the estimate is accurate within 5% you’re talking about a $50,000
swing on a $500,000 estimate
The home value could be anywhere from $475,000 - $525,000
And they’re only that close a third of the time

Weichert has been studying market conditions for more than 3 decades and has found a direct correlation between market absorption and property values.
As absorption rates increase beyond a normal market level of 5-6 months, property values depreciate annually.
Note: This Market Scale is valid only for absorption rates between 1 and 12 months.

Home Pricing
Who is in control?

• Promotes a sense of urgency among buyers• Promotes a sense of urgency among agents• Generates interest and showings• Sets the stage for multiple purchase offers in the
first 30 days• Offers tend to be higher in relation to list price• Controls negotiations• Results in highest price in shortest time

deeply discounted prices for homes.~Jeff Otteau

What is
‘Pre-Inspection?’
![Page 123: Weichert Princeton Office April 2014 Princeton Real Estate Market Seminar](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062614/54626be6b1af9f86228b5019/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
Pre-Inspection
WHAT DOES PRE-INSPECTION INCLUDE? The standard home inspector's report will review the condition of the home's heating system, central air
conditioning system (temperature permitting), interior plumbing and electrical systems; the roof, attic, and
visible insulation; walls, ceilings, floors, windows and doors; the foundation, basement, and visible structure. It will also advise if any potential environmental hazards
were observed.

Pre-Inspection
DOESN’T THE BUYER DO THE HOME INSPECTION?

• Why do a Pre-Inspection?– Fix EVERYTHING before going on market– Remove objections– Reduce the risk of going ‘off market’ for a buyer
who ends up killing the deal– Stay in Control
