She\u2019s an industry leader and her vast experience and stellar reputation have made her one of the top experts in her field. Debbie\u2019s been advising multiple generations of families with their real estate needs. Whether it is a client seeking a starter home or a mansion, her advice is sought after, trusted and revered. Debbie ranks in the top one percent of Coldwell Banker agents internationally and heads the number one team for Metro Atlanta Coldwell Banker.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><i>Travelgirl: <\/i>Debbie, it seems the home real estate market is booming. Is now a good time to sell your house and or buy a new one? <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> Debbie Sonenshine:<\/span> It\u2019s absolutely the right time to sell. Low interest rates and a lack of inventory have driven home prices up. If you are thinking of selling now, the market should reward you. This is a very competitive time. However, there are great houses available and an experienced agent can help you find the home that fits your needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">TG: What safety precautions are in place for both buyers and sellers?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> DS:<\/span> Prospective buyers and sellers should wear a mask and sanitize their hands before entering a property. As an agent I am now meeting my clients at the home we are viewing, which in the past wasn\u2019t the case. Once one enters a home with an agent, it\u2019s imperative that you socially distance. We, both buyers and agents, should utilize the internet to preview houses and screen them before visiting in person. This minimizes the number of houses you will need to see. It\u2019s also imperative to always check with both buyers and sellers to ensure no one has been ill for the past 14 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">TG: How do you market a home for sale during the pandemic?<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> DS:<\/span> Photography has become a vital asset in selling homes. We\u2019ve enhanced the quality of the photography with the use of drones and Matterport (a 3D camera that allows the digitizing of a building, creating 3D tours, 4K print quality photos and schematic floor plans) and we utilize virtual tours to help buyers more effectively screen properties. In years past it was necessary to visit every home in person and, with virtual tours, that is no longer the case.<br \/>\n<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>Staging, which has always been extremely important, is now even more vital because we want the house to show its best possible face for viewing. Buyers today are discriminating and they typically don\u2019t want to do a lot of updating. Let your agent guide you in what you can do to get the best return on your investment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>To learn more please visit Debbie Sonenshine\u2019s website \u2013 www.Sonenshineteam.com<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Debbie Sonenshine, one of Georgia\u2019s top real estate advisors, has been showcasing and selling homes for decades.
