Hello from Harbor Village, Bonaire... where I just started something NEW!

For the last two years, many of you have watched my “What’s Working Now?” videos... tips and strategies for neighborhood buyers and sellers. Twice a month, I’ve emailed them to subscribers and posted them on MarjorieDickStuart.tv.

Welcome to another episode of “What’s Working Now!”

Our market is crazy right now. There’s practically no supply and demand is skyrocketing. It seems like everyone wants to buy a house.

Actually, I recommend using pinpoint pricing if you want to get top dollar for your home.

Even in a seller’s market, it can be risky to wait for a better offer to come along. How do you know when to sign on the dotted line?
