Avoid HOA Hassles

Learn from our experience! About six months ago, we faced a potential hiccup in a transaction—all because of a backyard hot tub.

HOA Inspection Surprise: During escrow, the HOA inspected the home’s exterior, discovering a hot tub violation. The spa lacked a required wall, putting the sale at risk. 


Seller’s Dilemma: The sellers received a notice threatening fines if they didn’t address the hot tub issue promptly. The problem could have become the buyer’s, leading to potential closing delays. 

Costly Consequences: To avoid complications, the sellers had to invest thousands to meet HOA requirements and prevent a closing delay. Don’t let minor changes turn into major headaches. Get HOA approval upfront!

3 MUST DO’S When Selling Your Home

Planning to make a move this year?

Whether you’re buzzing with excitement for the next chapter or feeling a bit sentimental about your current home, finding the right balance is key. 

1. Price Your Home Right

The housing market has shifted, and pricing your home correctly is crucial. Avoid deterring buyers by setting a competitive price. An experienced real estate agent, like us, can help determine the ideal asking price, ensuring your house sells quickly and for top dollar.

 

2. Keep Your Emotions in Check

Homeowners are staying in their homes longer, increasing emotional attachment. Trust your realtor to navigate negotiations and establish the best pricing strategy. Their expertise ensures a fair market price while considering your sentimental connection.

 

3. Stage Your Home Properly

Create a broad appeal by focusing on your home’s first impression. Buyers want to envision themselves in the space, so neutralize decor and personalize touches. Home staging showcases your property in the best light, attracting more potential buyers.

With these three best practices, you’ll feel confident and ready to take on the journey. Let’s chat about your plans and ensure you navigate the process smoothly. Message us @SHEA PREFERRED REALTY GROUP
