A Simple Way To See Your Home --- Let Us Get Inside.....
There are a lot of posts regarding making sure your home is easily available to see when it is on the market. What if the lights are on, background music set, the stage is perfectly set for visitors but.......
You can't get inside the house....because the key in the lockbox is not correct or is difficult to operate.
This week --- I had three different occurences while previewing properties in advance of showing them to clients.
One was a lockbox issue with a bank owned property. The supra lockbox had been tampered and the listing office said, oh so sorry, we won't be able to have anyone out there to repair(repair---how about switching it out??) until Monday(this was on Wednesday). Hmmm, cross that one off the list ---- and 171 days on the market....
Two others were keys that did operate correctly. I had to use WD-40 to loosen it from the keyhole(not a great first impression) and the second(four keys in the lockbox and three of them seem to work fine but the last one was very sticky a fact confirmed by the listing agent....oh, yeah, I've been meaning to get that fixed).
So, here's a simple way to help sell your home.....
