I find that these types of incentives don't work if you don't have buyers coming into your market. Modoc County only has about 10,000 residents -- the best thing to do for a buyer coming into this market is to make sure the property is clean and priced right.
Very helpful, I am a new agent, and tips like these are gold to me! I really appreciate you taking the time to post this!
Hey Tracey, great incentives! Have you tried any of these?
