Hi.  If you are new to the blog, I'm Diane.  I've written blog posts about Southeast Texas Real Estate for a couple of years.  I'm an award winning REALTOR with Coldwell Banker Southern Homes.  One of my specialties is marketing homes for sale with the latest technology.  

I'm a real fan of the new interactive tours.  This one is done with a special camera.  Let me know what you think.  

If you are planing to buy or sell a home in Southeast Texas this year, call me.  Let me put the marketing power of Coldwell Banker Southern Homes and my fifteen years of real estate experience to work for you.

Virtual tours have gone high tech.  Marketing a home online is the most important thing your Realtor can do to reach the maximum number of potential buyers.  Reaching the maximum number of potential buyers is how a home sells quickly and for the best price.  

It takes more than pretty pictures.  If your home only shows still photographs online you are missing a key piece of the puzzle.  What's your opinion do you think the new interactive tours are more likely to get a buyer interested in your home from their computer screen?  

If you are planning to sell your home in 2019 ask your Realtor if they will market your home with a interactive virtual tour.  If  you don't have a Realtor contact me and let me show you the other special marketing techniques that I can use to help you sell your home for top price in the right amount of time. 

Happy 2019!

Sincerely,

Diane 

What are homes selling for in Southeast Texas? 

Here's a look at the average sales price of homes in Beaumont, Lumberton and Little Cypress for single family homes that closed in the month of October. 

The homes sales in Little Cypress are averaging lower than Lumberton and Beaumont West 2 in part because there are still flooded and gutted home sales bringing down the average.  That said, Lumberton and Beaumont West 2  and 4 usually have the highest average home sales prices in the whole Southeast Texas housing market.  

Total Southeast Texas residential home sales in October numbered 290.  The overall average sales price was $173,291.  This overall average is also brought down by the flooded and gutted homes still in the market. 

If you want to know the average home sales price for your neighborhood comment below.  I'll be glad to share the information with you.
