seller: What Your Remodeling Contract Should Say - 02/01/12 08:12 AM

By: Oliver Marks
Review your remodeling contract carefully and adjust it to make sure it protects you in terms of payments, work schedules, and project specifications.
The essential job of a construction contract is to spell out the project’s “scope of work.” This is the document you and your contractor will consult throughout the job, so make sure it’s as detailed as possible.
Some states require the contractor to write his license number on the document and to include a clause that allows you to rescind within a certain time period after signing. Check your state laws to learn what your construction contract … (1 comments)

seller: Compile a Home Inventory with the Right Tools - 01/27/12 02:34 PM

By: Gwen Moran
A home inventory of your belongings for insurance purposes is a relatively inexpensive way to make any future claims go smoother.

How long will you likely live in the home?How large is your family likely to grow?What activities will you have and what space requirements?Where do you want … (4 comments)

seller: Selling Tips in a Buyer’s Market Today - 10/17/11 05:04 AM
A buyer’s market means it’s the seller’s turn to be flexible, especially with sale terms. Purchase price, closing dates, move-in dates, storage, appliances, window treatments, points and fees may all require a little negotiation. Whatever the terms, don’t let personal feelings stand in the way of a good deal.

The basics
In a buyer’s market, curb appeal, cleanliness, overall good condition and updates are especially crucial. Any little flaw should be taken care of before the first buyer drives up.
·         Attend open houses in your neighborhood to see what “sell-ready” really looks like. If you’re shy, ask Realtor to walk … (0 comments)
