Good Reading for the Home Seller

April 19, 2007

Many newspapers carry articles by Robert J. Bruss. He has a sydicated column in which he responds to questions from readers regarding real estate issues. I subscribe to an online newsletter and Robert J. Bruss is a frequent contributer. He recently commented on two new publications which have suggestions for profitable improvements to your home.

"Property Ladder Buying for Profit" by Kirsten Kemp is really about how improvements can add market value to homes. "Property Ladder" refers to a TV show on the Learning channel and the first chapter contains four case studies from episodes of this TV show. There are four major chapters in the book :"Case Studies"; "All Around the House"; "Makeover Magic"; and "Project Price Guide". Robert J Bruss rates this as a 10 on a scale of 1-10. It can be purchased at local book stores or from www.Amazon.com.

The second book is Michael Corbett's "Ready, Set, Sold!". Corbett is the host of "Extra's Mansions and Millionaires". This book is about how to transform an ordinary house into one which a buyer absolutely must buy. This book should also be available at local bookstores and from www.Amazon.com.

These are good resources for potential sellers and are fun and easy reading with great practical suggestions.
