Need some Monday motivation? Yeah, me too! Here's a good word from America's fave author Mark Twain...⁣
⁣
“The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one.”⁣
⁣
Whatever is overwhelming you this Monday, stop, break it down into smaller tasks, and get busy knocking ‘em out one by one. And remember, you're not alone in attempting GREAT things!⁣

Should you make repairs to your home before you sell? ⁣
⁣
According to the National Association of Realtors, around 37% of contracts fall through because of repair issues sellers could have addressed before listing their property. ⁣
⁣
This alone shows that while your home doesn’t have to be perfectly flawless, you should invest time and money to get it in working order. Here are a few must-fix items. (And trust me, if you don’t fix these now, you’ll be doing it later, promise!):⁣
⁣
• Faulty wiring⁣
• Grading and drainage issues⁣
• Roof leaks and shingle problems⁣
• Foundation issues⁣
• Heating and air-conditioning problems⁣
• Plumbing and septic issues⁣
⁣
When in doubt, ask an agent what to address before listing. Chances are you’ll recoup some or all of the cost you put in when you sell.⁣
⁣
Thinking about listing your home? I’d love to listen to your plans for selling and offer my input -- no strings attached -- send me a message today!⁣
