With something as important as your front door, you may want to put your DIY skills on hold. A professional painter has access to the most durable, weather- resistant materials and will create a pristine finish. While you’re having your front door painted, walk through your house and consider the impression your paint colors might have. That bright orange you painted your living room in the early 2000s might have seemed like a cool, bold move back then, but it’s likely to turn off buyers who view your home now
Read This Before You Sign a Contract With a Buyer
Imagine taking your home off the market for 60 days while a prospective buyer tries to buy it. Then, 60 days later, the buyer finds out they can’t get a loan. You just wasted 60 days of marketing time! Now, imagine that during the 60 days, another buyer wanted to buy your home. But the buyer couldn’t purchase it. Why? Because you signed a contract with the first buyer. By the time you find out the first buyer could not obtain financing, the other buyer has already bought a house! Ouch! You just lost a sale! This is why it’s so important to make sure a buyer is able to obtain financing before you sign a contract. It costs you nothing to get a prequalify home loan. Lenders can help buyers get a loan with the most competitive interest rates available. You can rest easy, knowing they’ll be able to obtain financing for your individual needs.
