Ellis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: Where Do I Start as a First Time Homebuyer?Here’s the first thing you should do as a first-time homebuyer. Here at the Krissy Mireles Team, we pride ourselves on working with first-time homebuyers, and we do things a bit differently than other real estate teams in this regard. I know that we’re in a fast-paced market, but if you’re a first-time homebuyer, I’d like you to take a step back for a second and invite you to schedule a first-time homebuyer consultation with me. This benefits you because you should be informed and capable of making decisions for yourself and your family throughout the home buyin...2021-01-1200 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: What Are the Pros and Cons of Buying With Cash?“Cash is king,” as they say, but here is a more nuanced look at cash offers. I’ve been in the real estate business for more than 26 years, and I’ve never seen so many cash buyers in our marketplace—it’s truly dumbfounding! So, for all you potential homebuyers out there, I figured it was high time to review the pros and cons of submitting a cash offer. Here are the four major pros: Quick close. By paying cash, you can close a real estate transaction fairly quickly. Now, speed may not be advantageous to a seller who lives in the home an...2020-10-2700 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: What’s Going on in Our Market?Here’s our latest update on what’s going on in our market. Ellis County currently has 1.5 months of inventory. What does that mean for you? Well, in a buyer’s market, we’d have six months or more of inventory. Ours is a very, very strong seller’s market—I’ve been in this market for nine years now and I’ve never seen our inventory this low. There are certain price points where there simply may not be any homes available to buy, and where there are homes available, there aren’t enough to meet the demand. If you’re looking for...2020-10-0200 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesThe Importance of Picking the Right Lender in Your Real Estate TransactionNow more than ever, it’s critical that you pick the right lender for your real estate transaction. I’m a listing agent, meaning that buyers and their agents come to me with lenders from all over the place, including local lenders, out-of-state lenders, and companies like QuickenLoans. As a seller’s agent, it’s important to not only look at the offers submitted to my clients but to also vet their lenders. If there was anything that I could change about the real estate industry, it’d be the way the lending process is handled. Things are often done at the las...2020-08-2600 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: Will We See a Wave of Foreclosures Hit the Market?Here’s why I don’t think we’ll see a wave of foreclosures hit our market. Being a top agent means surrounding yourself with successful organizations and agents who handle a ton of sales volume. In order to provide top-level service to your clients, you have to be improving all the time. I’m telling you this because I keep my finger on the pulse of what other successful agents and real estate organizations are saying to gauge what’s happening in different markets and what the future’s expected to bring; I don’t always agree with what others agents p...2020-08-0700 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: What’s Behind the Surge in Demand in Our Market?Demand is surging in our market—here’s what that means for you. Now that the shelter-in-place orders have relaxed, it’s time for a quick update on our summer real estate market. Nobody expected the market to rebound like it did, but it’s crazy out there. There’s been a surge in demand, and according to a recent NAR survey, pending home sales skyrocketed 44.3% from April to May. That’s the largest one-month jump in the history of the survey, which dates back to 2001. The pandemic, of course, is what’s primarily driving this surge. Another factor behind it, though, is t...2020-07-1300 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: What Is Our Give Back Program?In July, our Give Back Program can help you save on your home sale.

As a team that handles a lot of volume, we’re negotiating deals every day and have a pretty good feel for the market. One trend that has been sticking out, as of lately, is that there are a lot of cash buyers out there. These aren’t just cash investors. These are people who are using their hard-earned money and putting it into real estate. Last weekend, my team was up against multiple offers on every single offer that they submitted. I was working with four different buyers, and ev...2020-06-0300 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesQ: How Did Texas Real Estate Do in the 1st Quarter of 2020?How did the Texas real estate market finish during the first quarter of 2020? I have the latest news for you today. Although real estate is considered an essential business, we’re still sheltering in place. Despite that, we have the latest news and numbers from the Texas real estate market for the first quarter of 2020. I read an interesting article recently that said, among other things, that Texas home sales increased in the first quarter of 2020. During the first quarter, 75,052 homes were sold. That was a 7% jump compared to the first quarter of 2019. The median price also increased by 5.1% to $241,500.

In today’s second installment in my series on contingency contracts, I’ll show you how to prepare your home if you’re considering going through with this ‘domino deal’ (click here to see my video on home staging): If you’re going to navigate the marketplace as a seller with a contingency contract, it’s almost mandatory that y...2019-08-2800 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesNavigating the Contingency ContractYou’re ready to put your home on the market and make a move, but you need the proceeds from your sale to go toward your next home purchase.

I went and researched home staging, and found that a survey of 4,500 homes that were staged said that 68% of them sold for at least 9% more than a non-staged neighbor’s. I truly believe the difference can come down to staging when it comes to selling for top dollar. However, I don’t think you need to spend thousands or even hundreds with a profes...2019-07-0800 minEllis County Real Estate Podcast with Krissy MirelesA Conversation With Prime West Mortgage’s Tom BartoshToday I’m delighted to be joined by Tom Bartosh with Prime West Mortgage to talk a little bit about the lending world.

For one thing, inventory remains low. With just 2.6 months’ worth of homes available on the market, sellers are in a prime position to sell quickly and for top dollar. Even at this comparatively low level of inventory, though, buyers are beginning to gain some leverage.
