kingstowne real estate: Should Sellers Get a Pre-Listing Home Inspection? - 04/05/19 12:35 PM
Should Sellers Get a Pre-Listing Home Inspection?
A pre-listing home inspection is something I rarely see homeowners want to do. I can count on my fingers how many times I’ve had a client agree to one and while I see both sides of the story I think the benefits of having one outweigh the drawbacks. I’m not going to say one is needed on every single home but, more often than not I do recommend one be conducted.


The majority of the time a buyer is going to have a home inspection conducted, even if the market is competitive and it’s a void … (19 comments)

kingstowne real estate: Should I List My Home In The Winter Or Wait Until Spring? - 01/27/19 06:56 PM
Is The Winter A Good Time To List My Home
 
A question I frequently receive this time of year from sellers is should I list my home now or wait until spring. My answer is it depends – the decision should be based on your personal circumstances and what the current market conditions are in the area your home is located.
 
There are a lot of sellers that think waiting until spring is best but, if you know you want to sell in the spring it is a good idea to contact your agent now and find out what the local market conditions … (51 comments)

kingstowne real estate: Final Walk Through – What Is It and Why Is It Important - 01/10/19 07:47 AM

 
Final Walk Through – What Is It and Why Is It Important
There can frequently be confusion of what a final walk through is and why it’s important. A final walk through can also be referred to as a pre-closing inspection. The final walk through is not a home inspection. In most cases the buyer will have a home inspection contingency that’s already been fulfilled as part of the contract. The final walk through shouldn’t be an appointment that takes a few hours like a home inspection but, it’s also not something that just takes a few minutes.
