There are various things to look for on your home tour with a Realtor. You should look at all the usual things like the kitchen, baths, layout, rooms and the backyard... but there are also things that you should look at on your tour that can save you a lot of time and money if you spot these things early. By learning a few things and taking a little extra time on your home tour and listening to your Realtor... you will not end up putting in offers on homes that wont work for you because they need to many repairs or have unpermitted work that you don't want to deal with. If you see these things early, they can also help you save money on the amount of your offer. Most of time sellers know what's wrong with their homes but see it differently than the buyer. So if you spot a problem early you can make your offer accordingly rather than trying to lower your offer later after the inspection. You might learn from your inspector something that you think is a hidden problem but the seller thin ...

Owning a brand new home is a great experience. Being able to add special touches that truly make it your own and knowing you are the first to have lived here is wonderful. Brand new things like appliances, AC, hot water heater, tile, pipes, and cabinets can give you a piece of mind, especially knowing the fact that they all have warranties and that you are the first to use them. Lots of new homes are being built all over Central Florida.
Dont go in alone however, it can be tricky to work with a builder and you may not maximize your dollars and find all the extras you are entitled to. Also you can get stuck paying more than you thought if you don't have an experienced, dependable Realtor on your side to help you navigate the contracts, addendums, and fine print associated with dealing with builders and their agents or representatives.

Here are 10 top priority pre listing tips for Home Sellers:
1. The Front Door: Many of us pull into our garages, rarely ever even using our front door, except for greeting guests from the inside, never seeing what our guests see as they’re standing at the door waiting for us to greet them. A clean, freshly painted front door with a new welcome mat and shiny doorknob or handle is the best way to give your buyers a truly positive first impression. Fresh seasonal flowers also make your buyers feel at home before they even enter the front door!
2. Address any deferred maintenance: A homeowner pre inspection is always a great idea -even newer homes can have hidden repairs that will be discovered by the buyers’ inspector. These items tend to elongate the list of repairs that the buyers find and put fear into them as to how well the home has been maintained in general. Simple but noticeable items are important t. ...
