As a buyer, it is important to have a good idea of a property’s condition before settling down. Hiring a home inspector can help you learn about a home’s condition, history, and maintenance requirements. Today I’m joined by a special guest, Eric Mayberry of Down Home Inspections. Eric has 16 years of experience in our area, so he’s going to go over a few reasons why home inspections are so crucial to the real estate process. Hiring a home inspector will always put buyers in a better position. Inspectors can fill buyers in on everything they need to know about a home. An inspector will be able to provide you with information about the history of the home and will also point out any things that need to be repaired. Hiring a home inspector will always put buyers in a better position. Additionally, an inspector can give you a better idea of how to maintain a home for years to come.

A well-staged home can make the difference between a quick sale and a lingering listing, and your kitchen is one of the most important rooms in your home. Staging your kitchen before putting your house on the market can make the difference between a quick sale and a lingering listing. The appearance of your kitchen is one factor that will rank highly among potential buyers’ priority lists. Because of this, I want to bring you six kitchen staging tips that can help you sell your home. The appearance of your kitchen ranks highly among potential buyers’ priority lists. De-clutter the countertops. Rid your counters of any miscellaneous objects, paper, or clutter. This can be distracting. Instead, leave one or two decorative items on your counters. A good example would be a vase of flowers or a bowl of seasonal fruit. Get rid of excessive dishware. As is the case with our first tip, you don’t want buyers to feel overwhelmed. Leave one matching set of dishes and glassware out on your table, but don’t overdo it. Check the cabinets. Your cabinets may need a fresh coat of paint or to be replaced altogether. Determine your specific needs and update accordingly. Evaluate your appliances. If your appliances are new and in good working order, you should be all set. However, consider upgrading or replacing appliances that aren’t quite up to snuff. Clean the refrigerator. No one likes a dirty kitchen. Make sure you wipe down the front and handles of your refrigerator. Clean the walls. Like we mentioned in the previous tip, it’s important to make sure your kitchen is sparkling clean. Keeping your walls and backsplashes looking fresh and free of stains or smudging will make a big difference. With these tips at your disposal, it should be easy to stage your home. If you have any other questions, would like more information, or are considering a career in real estate, feel free to give me a call or send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you soon.…

Many people I know invest in real estate. It’s a great way to build wealth and generate passive income. Buying real estate can be a great investment. In fact, a lot of my friends, family, and clients purchase real estate to use as an investment in order to get passive income. With passive income, you are making money on a regular basis with little to no effort on your part. Rental properties generate this type of cash flow each month. If you hire a property management company to handle everything, you can get a positive cash flow each month without doing anything else. You can build wealth through real estate. This is an important step to take toward retirement. The more passive income you can create, the better off you will be when the time comes.

If you’re interested in a career in real estate, I’d be happy to talk to you about that as well. If you need help with anything else, just let us know. We look forward to hearing from you.…

Many people think waiting until summer to list their homes is their best bet. However, there are three great benefits to listing during the winter. Now that 2017 is underway, you might be considering when the best time is to list your home. Many people are still convinced listing during the winter is bad idea, but there are a few reasons why they’re mistaken. First, there is less inventory on the market during the colder months. The less competitive the market, the better it is for the seller, as the homes that are on the market are in higher demand. Also, January brings in a lot of people transferring for jobs. These buyers are incredibly serious and need to get into a home right away. Finally, buyers are looking all day every day. They have access to websites and apps and spend hours on Zillow and Truila. Buyers are looking all year round, including during the winter. Buyers are looking all year round, including during the winter.
