UNTOLD SECRETS HOW THE REAL ESTATE MARKET REALLY WORKS is the definitive guide on how to Price and Value real estate in a competitive market, written by twenty-five-year veteran Kerry D. Bodily. In this latest book, Kerry writes candidly as a consumer advocate how the current appraisal system methods, commonly used by most home sellers and real estate professionals, are unrealistic for determining the competitive price or value of real estate in an active market. In other words, states Kerry. Today's competition determines today's value, not yesterday's sales. This is the new paradigm solution presented in this book. With real-life examples and humorous stories, Kerry exposes the many-layered parts and parties of real estate transactions. If you're a home seller, he advises how to position your property to get the highest price, and if you're a buyer, how to get the most value for the price paid. He also teaches consumers how to get the most out of their real estate professionals, including agents, home inspectors, mortgage lenders, and others.
