charlotte nc home sellers: Top 10 Charlotte Home Seller Mistakes
- 08/05/12 02:24 AM
Don’t Make These Common Charlotte Home Seller MistakesMistake #1 – Over-PricingOf course, every seller wants to get the most money for his or her home. However, the most common mistake, by far, that causes sellers to get less than they hope for, is listing too high. Sellers fail to understand that home listings reach the greatest number of potential buyers shortly after they hit the market. If a property is immediately dismissed as being overpriced, it will result in later price reductions, costing the seller not only the net that they ‘thought’ they would procure but, the carry costs as well. … (5 comments)

charlotte nc home sellers: Charlotte Mecklenburg Building Permitting
- 01/01/12 06:28 AM
Be SURE the Home You Purchase Has the Necessary Permits on File - BEFORE You Buy All serious prospective buyers should check seller permits pertaining to any room or home additions/renovations as part of their due diligence when checking out a home.

The current owners, not the previous owners who actually did the work or had it done illegally, are the ones who these cities are penalizing. Non-permitted room additions, kitchen remodels and garage conversions are but a few items that can come back and bite … (1 comments)
