Press Release Summary: "Excellent Tips to Sell a Property Quickly, With or Without
an Agent"

Press Release Body: Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo, has been making waves
in the real estate industry since the nineties. His successful experience has landed
him the position of real estate expert. Lou Castillo has developed programs for real
estate investors who seek the same success. Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo,
gives his audience a powerful lesson in how to sell a property quickly with or
without an agent.

Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo shares beneficial advice for property owners
starting with the pricing. Lou Castillo says "owners must realistically set a price
for the property which draws buyers in." After pricing has been established, Super
Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo recommends evaluating amenities which he says are
of equal importance. Lou gives an outline on making the best of amenities to include
everything from flooring to light fixtures. Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo,
tells owners to pay close attention to the property's curb appeal, as it the first
impression buyers receive. Lou also explains to owners the importance of staging the
property. Staging involves setting the property up to feel like its "lived in."
Staging a property can be simple things such as hanging colorful towels, and opening
up spices to create an inviting smell in the air. Incorporating flowers and
beautiful hand soaps into the environment helps create an atmosphere of warmth.

Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo, continues by addressing the importance of
cleanliness. Lou tells property owners to make sure the property is "spic and span"
clean. Lou suggests making sure the property shines with sparkling clean windows,
dust free counters and spotless floors. Another key to selling properties quickly
include letting the "sunshine in," by opening window treatments, and also having the
proper lighting sources in each room. Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo tells
property owners to ensure all light bulbs are working, as it is important potential
buyers get the correct lighting to assess the property. Another huge tip Lou pointed
out is ensuring that the property is at a comfortable temperature, not too cold or
too hot which will cause potential buyers to cut their visit short.

Lou Castillo, further suggests easy access to showings, suggesting utilization of a
lockbox if the owner is not generally readily available. Having an informational
flyer on-site which buyers can take home, is another tip Lou advises owners not to
overlook. It is a must that the buyer has information with the property details to
take away for later review. Proper signage is also important to invite potential
buyers to viewing the property. Lou also suggests including information about the
property on the signs. Even if the owner is selling the property without the use of
an agent it is important to let agents know that they are protected if they bring a
buyer. Paying an agent a commission off the sale is an incentive to get them to
bring their buyers to see the property. Offering a higher commission percentage will
also encourage agents to sell the property. Another excellent point is for owners to
establish a relationship with a good mortgage broker experienced in all types of
credit, to assist in the financing opportunities for potential buyers.

Super Real Estate Expert, Lou Castillo, concludes his tips on selling properties
quickly by advising property owners to consider incentives. Buyers are oftentimes in
need of cash and Lou recommends offering to pay some of their costs in lieu of
dropping the price. Lou suggests paying the closing costs is a much bigger incentive
for a buyer in need of cash assistance. Lou Castillo indicates payment of the buyers
costs can be the incentive which will result in an executed purchase agreement.
