Ask Renée
You asked. We answered.
I want to sell this house and buy another. How do I do that?
There are many ways that can be accomplished. Contingent offers are the most common ways. This allows you to pick out your new home first. Not sure what your current home is worth? We can sell your current home and then place an offer on the next home. Rent backs are another common form of allowing you the cushion of finding just the right one. And also don’t forget seller contingency to find the next home. All of these are great tools to get you your next dream home.
How much does the average person spend to get their house ready? What projects will get me the most money?
Most people need to do a little something. Leaky pipes to painting. Fresh carpet is always a good idea. We try and minimize expenses and make sure you don’t do anything unnecessary. A consultation with us is always the best way to start.
Do you have vendors that can help us?
We do! We have cultivated over 50 of the best of the best vendors all over the area to help you with your projects.
How should I price my home?
Many factors go into pricing home. The general rule is homes in your general area, not to cross freeways or bridges and a few hundred square feet up and down from yours. Upgrades are a huge difference maker – kitchens, master baths and backyards are the biggest return on investment. All of this is why we can’t tell what it is worth on the phone and to schedule a consultation with us to determine the home price. Also to note, don’t panic! One low home sale in your neighborhood does not move the entire market!
How is the market?
The market is great! Sellers are enjoying great gains on their homes. And yes, there are still some great buys out there. We are experts on upcoming areas and where we think the next great hot spot is.
I’m not ready to sell yet, but I might be in the next few years. Will you still consult us on what to upgrade and makes money?
Yes! Have us come by! We can tell you what buyers are looking for, what color trends are and recommend the right people to do it.
Can I buy with less than 20% down?
Yes! There are a lot of great loan programs out there. We work with a great group of lenders. We would be happy to connect you with the right one.
I don’t want to waste your time.
We value every interaction and are here to provide knowledge and education. If you have any questions, please ask! You are never wasting our time.
