Buying a Greater Wilmington home? Search all homes for sale
It's hard enough to get a house on the market, get it marketed properly, and make sure everything is perfect. The selling process is even more stressful when you have a buyer under contract -- you agree on a price, the financing, and the terms -- but then repairs come up. Depending on how well the listing agent did with the seller, the whole deal could fall apart! Rarely do you see a house, even new houses, that doesn’t need something repaired before selling.
We recommend setting aside a bit of money in anticipation of the home inspection. Know when preparing your home for the market and putting a price on it that you’re going to have to spend some money. There is no set amount you will have to spend in order to sell -- it depends on the age and condition of the home! It’s best to save a few thousand dollars just in case the inspection report comes back and you need to make a few big repairs!
It’s all about setting expectations up front. Planning for problems before you have a buyer under contract will help you to prevent the deal from falling through altogether. Once a defect is found, you will have the money available to fix it quickly and keep the deal going smoothly!
When you list with us, we’ll sit down and figure out an amount you want to get at the end of the day for selling your house. Then, we’ll look into whether it’s possible to make it happen. With a focus on timing and pricing, we’ll tell you what you need to hear rather than what you want to hear. We’ll be up front about what you can reasonably expect from the sale of your home!
We have the experience necessary to set realistic expectations for our clients. We tell our selling clients what they need to fix and repair before listing their home. This makes the process go smoothly once a buyer comes along! It saves time and, ultimately, it saves you money!
If you have questions about how to make the most of the selling process, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We would love to hear from you!
