SHOULD YOU MAKE A BACK-UP OFFER
LOOKING BEYOND COSMETIC FLAWS
Many sellers understand that prospective buyers are more attracted to homes that are spotlessly clean, updated and tastefully decorated. Often, however, sellers are unable to fully update their homes for showing. Homes that aren't newly "done
" can be exceptional values, with an inherent "sweat equity potential" factor built in. You're not paying for expensive new interior decorating (much of which leaves with the sellers, anyway).
When a Realtor shows you houses that need work, imagine what they would look like empty, with worn carpets removed, floors refinished, fresh paint and your own furniture in the room. If the home is sound structurally and has updated systems, a small investment of elbow grease and paint could make it look fabulous.
Interestingly, there has been a recent trend where the general buying public pays a significant premium for attractive decor. Please feel free to email us at info@PinnacleHouses.com or call us at 781-237-5000.
