Tip #2: Don’t ignore maintenance costs

As an experienced home contractor, I can safely say small problems grow quickly when they’re ignored. The size and age of the home will have an impact on the cost of repairs and maintenance.

Your best resource to consult is the sellers. Ask them what they roughly pay every year on maintaining the home.

Ignoring small costs can increase energy costs and lead to expensive repairs so don’t neglect this detail!

Are you looking for another good reason to list your home in the fall or winter?

According to the Center for Health Statistics and the Social Security Administration, September holds more birthdays than any other month.

A new baby means a growing family which means the parents will likely be looking for a more spacious family home around the time of the child’s birth!

Top Home Buying Tips

Tip #1: Visit at different times

You should always visit a potential new home at different times of the day before purchasing it. A peaceful neighborhood during the day may be entirely different at night.

Visiting a prospective home in different kinds of weather should also be done if possible. You can note if rain pools in the yard or where snow and leaves collect.

Fort Collins may be an exciting market but don’t let that lull you into thinking that you can sell your home with a snap of your fingers.

It’s a lot of work to get your home ready for market. Buyers won’t want to see broken things, a dirty home or your personal belongings lying around.

If you cut corners selling your home, buyers will notice and respond accordingly!

Are you on the fence about selling your home during fall or winter?

One benefit of doing so is that you can show your home is winter ready. A south facing driveway, a fully functional furnace, and a recently replaced roof will all help your home seem warmer and ready to face harsh weather.

Major bonus: If you have a functional fireplace, don’t forget to show it off!
