When a buyer walks in my flip after walking through 8 other houses I want them to notice the added sizzle features like granite countertops, that it's cleaner than other houses (i.e. windows washed inside and out) and it's tastefully staged.

I've never used the feature myself, but maybe you'll have some luck.

One of the mod features will be a term extension pushing the balloon back 8-10 years from now Exit strategy ideas I've been thinking through:- Rent then sell prior to balloon*have modified so balloon is around $2.0-2.1M* general upkeep of common areas done -> school enrollment higher -> more student tenants again -> rent raises over time -> increased value to sell for- Refinance prior to balloonthis also assumes an increase in value (which from market research and lots of knowledge about the building i believe will actually happen)Any thoughts?

I have developed an orchestrated method that has worked every time for me.I have my business website URL that I post all the features, qualifications,lots of pictures, and contact information on.

The Fortune Builders program has some pretty cool features including but not limited to Repair estimator, accounting system, buyer managment/seller management, marketing templates, website templates, cash buyer database, mass email, text/voice call service...I found another site realestateautomator.com that has similar features at $99/month.

Any guesses for low end features for 800 sqft, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, family room?

I discuss it in a lot more detail throughout this thread:http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/67/topics/62850-home-staging-how-much-As for whether it works or not and the data behind it, I wrote a post several months ago (can't find it using the search feature!)

First off, thanks for taking the time to reply.I'll have to look into that feature to see how it works, otherwise it seems like it would be difficult to simultaneously monitor/answer seven different numbers.On the other hand, being that our bandit sign number is a Google Voice number, Google might provide some simple way to accomplish something like what you're suggesting.

We have a lot of attractive features I think would draw people to this home, but if we sell we run the risk of losing a lot of money.
