Hey BPers,Here is a little tip to help sell your houses faster (I did this on Monday and it reminded me to post this method):TIP: Make sure you are scheduling multiple people at one time to go see the house you are selling.This will create a SENSE OF URGENCY AND A FEAR OF LOSS and have your buyers fighting to give you a contract.I use this technique when I am wholesaling a property, when I am owner financing a property, and when I am retailing a property (when I can) .Now, the key here is make sure you have at least 2 qualified buyers...I like to make sure all the buyers are qualified; however, if I am trying to create some real fear of loss...I will just get the numbers there.Just to be clear, I do this as often as I can and have literally had people fighting to get their contract in first (which you want to have on hand); however, if you have a good qualified buyer and you can ONLY schedule that one buyer...then do it.

While its a great sales technique on the agents side, If it does command that value, then why wouldn't I just do a cash out refinance and keep this one in the portfolio vs a full on sale?
