Staging It……

Staging Your Home To Sell is More Important Than Ever in a Difficult Market……


Top Dollar Demands Top Repair

Don’t let repairs stand between you & and the offer you want.  You can offer a repair allowance, BUT you’ll never know about the offer that didn’t happen because the repairs looked like too much work for the buyer.

If you find a buyer that’s willing to do the work, 9 times out of 10, they will over compensate with a low offer.

It will likely cost you less to do the repairs yourself than the concession you will have to make.
In general, basic maintenance expenses are a “Low Cost / High Gain” proposition.  Fixing a dripping faucet may be as easy as replacing a washer.  However, to the Buyer, that minor drip may equate to a major plumbing problem in their mind.
Buyers just won’t pay top dollar for a house with a leaky roof, malfunctioning furnace or faulty plumbing.   While these issues may have big price tags, doing the repair will keep your home in the top price range.
