3 Good Reasons Good Condition (or better) is important to the sale of your house

We, most of us, live in our homes a lot differently than we would show our home. Sure,3 Good Reasons Good Condition (or better) I’d like to have my home in show condition all the time, however, reality steps in. I have a busy schedule, a hubby, three children, three hair shedding furry children I don’t want to live without, and a full time (plus) career I love. I get it. It’s hard work keeping a home in show condition 24/7.

Here are 3 things to remember that may ease the stress:

1.     It’s only temporary. Good condition (or better) reduces days on the market.
2.     More money in your pocket. Good condition makes your negotiating stronger. If the house doesn’t need paint, the offer should not reflect the cost of paint and even a professional painter.
3.     Increases your potential come time for an appraisal. Appraisal is a big part of any real estate transaction requiring a mortgage. The Appraiser looks at condition of the home, if your home doesn’t appraise for contract price the transaction has the potential for falling apart.

Get your house in Good condition (or better) and
get glowing feedback like these sellers did! Call me if you’d like to see for yourself!

Because there is such an inconvenience in selling with Ready to Show within minutes, it is so important to price correctly.   Otherwise everyone fizzles out!
