Real Estate Adventures with Jill & Bill
What makes buying and selling a home different from selling properties owned by corporations? It’s the emotional connection. When a house is tied to kids growing up there and fun memories in the yard and around the table, the tendency is that it is well taken care of and people would like to buy it more. Join Jill as she interviews Bill Celler, radio personality turned realtor in the Atlanta area. They discuss the emotional connection to selling a house, the Atlanta area being a seller’s market, how COVID-19 makes people spend more money on their home and so much more.
