Before You Put The House Up For Sale – Part One

November 28, 2016 By Geoffrey Disch Leave a Comment

Trull’s ongoing Real Estate 101 series has an excellent article on 8 reasons why home sales fall through which we’ll be highlighting in the next two posts.

  • Roof
    A typical life span for a shingle-type roof is 20 to 25 years so if your food on your for-sale home is nearing the end, best to replace it or get a certificate that it’s in great shape. Roof issues account for approximately 39 percent of homeowners’ insurance claims and savvy home-buyers will often look here first.
  • Gutters
    Routine gutter maintenance can prevent potentially thousands of dollars of damage once the rains come.
  • Foundation
    Cracks in walls or a foundation can send a strong signal of potentially larger problems. Best to fix the problem before the inspection.
  • Doors and windows
    While a stuck window or creaky door may not seem like much – and probably isn’t – it can rise concerns for a potential buyer that the home isn’t as well-cared for as originally thought. What other problems might be lurking?

Our clients say...

“I’ve been in this industry for over 20 years. I have seen both fantastic and just “ok” escrow officers. The Escrow Officer and her team are typically the last stop for a borrower during the purchase or refinance transaction. You want that person and team to be personable, professional and helpful to your client. Kathy and her team at Green Escrow has surpassed my expectations. The team has gone the extra mile to ensure my file closed on time and without incident. I’m looking forward to continued success with Green Escrow.””
