I’ve got double good news! ⁣
⁣
Not only is it Friday (woot-woot), it’s also time for Fix-it-Up Fridays — a doable weekly tip to keep your home fresh and in tip-top shape. This week, it’s an oldie, but a goodie.⁣
⁣
If you’re headed to the store after work today for some meat to grill or wine to savor, grab a bouquet or two of fresh flowers. Bring ‘em home, trim the stems, throw them in a vase. You’ll instantly transform your entryway, dining room, or bedside table. ⁣
⁣
Nothing warms up a room quite like a vase of colorful flowers — so splurge! You’ll be glad you did.⁣ ... See MoreSee Less

BUYING PROCESS STEP 6: INSPECTIONS⁣
📱Siri, call my inspector and insurance agent!⁣
During the inspection period (typically 7-10 days), the buyer has the right to hire a professional to inspect the condition of the home. The inspection will uncover any issues in the home that would have otherwise been unknown.⁣
I highly recommend you schedule all inspections immediately and get in contact with your insurance agent as well. This way, if we need to negotiate any repairs we can get that taken care of before the inspection period ends. The inspection period is basically the only time you can back out of the contract without repercussions. ⁣

The standard home inspector's report will cover the condition of the home's heating system; central air conditioning system; interior plumbing and electrical systems; the roof, attic, and visible insulations; walls, ceilings, floors, windows, and doors; the foundation, basement and structural components. ⁣

You will receive a written report of the inspection. ⁣
Keep in mind that it is always a good idea to be present at the inspections: this way you’ll have the opportunity to ask the inspector any questions.⁣

Listing photos can be so very bad. So bad, in fact, there’s an entire website dedicated to collecting all of them in one place for our viewing enjoyment (or horror)! (terriblerealestateagentphotos.com)⁣

It is a huge disservice by agents to NOT have quality photos on your listing. I would NEVER advertise your home with cell phone photos, I would not want my name on that listing.⁣

Why? ⁣
Because stunning photos can be the difference between lots of traffic and a quick sell, and no traffic and crickets (cue cricket sounds).⁣

The very first place buyers see your home is online, from that web page they see your home displayed on, they will decide if they want to schedule a showing. ⁣
If the first photo captures them, they’ll scroll to the next photo, and the next, then read the listing description, then schedule a showing. ⁣
If they are not instantly captivated by that first listing photo, they will scroll on to the next one are not going to set foot in your house.⁣

If you’re looking to sell, let’s get you listing photos that pop and highlight your home’s best features. Give me a call today. ... See MoreSee Less
