AN OFFER YOU CAN'T REFUSE

A good home in good condition in a good neighborhood offered at a
fair price will still sell in a reasonable amount of time, experts say.
But in today's market, some owners want to offer a little extra incentive
to help their home sell as quickly as possible. Here are some
suggestions:

. Pay homeowners' association fees for up to two years.
. Pay the buyer's home insurance for up to a year.
. Offer a bonus to the buyer's agent.
. Buy down the mortgage rate by a percentage point or two to lower the buyer's monthly payment.
. Pay closing costs.
. Replace all the appliances with new ones
