Wordless Wednesday - It's the Little Things...

By
Real Estate Agent with Fort Collins Realtor @ C3 Real Estate Solutions

 

Sometimes it’s the little things that sells a home.  A beautiful chandelier, a well planned cabinet or the perfect shade tree out front.

On the other hand, sometimes you see a ‘little thing’ like this:

.. and start calculating how much money you’ll need to budget for CLR and shower cleaner.  That beautiful pattern on the glass is rust from the well water in that area. Sometimes it’s the little things that make all the difference (both good AND bad) when buying and selling a home.

Sadly, it's not.  It's rust stains from the water.  The houses in the area are on wells and apparently share this particular frustration as they are universally stained where sprinklers hit the outside walls.  I can only imagine how tough it would be to deal with this on a daily basis.

I don't doubt it, Paul.  This one was a dealbreaker for sure but I know its not unique.  Tough to get around that sort of house handicap.
