Here are eight Real Estate strategies for buyers and sellers who want to make a Coronado housing move in '08.

8 strategies for savvy sellers

1. Understand what "market value" means. It's not what your friend sold his house for two years ago or even two months ago. It's not the value your latest tax assessment was based on or what an appraiser said the house was worth a year ago. It is exactly what someone is willing to pay for your house today. Hence, price realistically and broaden incentives, such as closing costs and throw-ins like appliances, flat-screen televisions, etc. There is an old saying: "There's nothing wrong with a home that the right price can't fix."

2. Don't be an as-is seller. That is, unless you absolutely have to be one. Potential homebuyers aren't looking for fixer-uppers in the current market unless they are rock-bottom, bargain-basement priced. Large volumes of foreclosed homes are already being sold in poor condition at auction.
