Yes! Yes! A 1000x YES! Here’s why:⁣
⁣
1. Inventory is LOW.⁣
2. You’ll get lots of attention from buyers and their agents.⁣
3. With rock-bottom interest rates, buyers are ready to purchase.⁣
4. Repair requests are minimal.
5. Closing timeline is flexible.⁣
⁣
Online searches for “buying a home” are at an all-time-high so if you’re thinking of selling, try to get in front of the action. 

The short answer: If the Buyer requests it - Yes. ⁣
⁣
Here’s why:⁣
⁣
• A home warranty protects the buyer from unexpected repairs and replacements for a year after closing. Buying a home can be stressful so any added layer of protection you can provide will always be warmly received.⁣
• The average price of a home warranty is $500 to $600 a year. If a couple of hundred bucks is all it takes to secure the sale, it’s a completely worthwhile investment.⁣
• If the Buyer's request one up front, then get an inspection & ask for repairs - we can then turn around and say "that's under the home warranty we already agreed to providing." WIN WIN!

You know what? It’s true. You CAN sell your home without an agent. But the better question is SHOULD you sell your home without an agent? ⁣
⁣
Consider this true scenario for one For Sale By Owner couple:⁣
• Saved $9,000 on agent commissions -- sounds great!⠀⁣
• Lost $19,000 on selling price -- sigh.⁣
⁣
Sadly, this isn’t uncommon. I see it all the time, and it usually plays out something like this: A seller puts their home up for sale by owner. Then, after days of frustration of showings/no shows, poor feedback or no response from an agent - they give me a call to bail them out and get the job done quickly. ⁣
⁣
Did you know, in fact, that 90% of FSBO FAIL to sell their home without an agent?
⁣
If you want maximum profit in minimum time, you need an agent. Statistics show an agent typically gets you 25% more on the sale completely covering agent commissions! ⁣
⁣
PLUS, you’ll gain an advocate , expert, and cheerleader who’s single goal is looking out for your best interest as you complete one of the largest transactions of your life!⁣
⁣
Considering selling by owner? I'd love to talk about the process and answer any questions you may have. Shoot me a message -- I'm here when you're ready!⁣

According to the NAR (National Association of Realtors), around 37% of contracts fall through because of repair issues sellers could have addressed before listing their property. ⁣
⁣
This alone shows that while your home doesn’t have to be perfectly flawless, you should invest time and money to get it in working order. Here are a few must-fix items. (And trust me, if you don’t fix these now, you’ll be doing it later, promise!):⁣
⁣
• Faulty wiring⁣
• Grading and drainage issues⁣
• Roof leaks and shingle problems⁣
• Foundation issues⁣
• Heating and air-conditioning problems⁣
• Plumbing and septic issues⁣
⁣
When in doubt, ask me on what to address before listing. Chances are you’ll recoup some or all of the cost you put in when you sell.⁣
