If you’re planning to sell your home, just thinking about the preparations you need for your property can easily become overwhelming. Because of this, many sellers tend to overspend on repairs and updates that won’t help sell their homes for more. They feel like they have to fix everything and over-improve, to the point of losing money if the return doesn’t match the investment.
As you approach closing, the pinnacle of your home buying journey, you’d want nothing to go wrong. But with many hurdles or complications that could get in the way before you finally hold your house keys, expect the process to be more stressful and overwhelming.
When you put up your home for sale, keep in mind that last-minute notices to show it to prospective buyers are always a possibility. But we trust that you’ve done all the huge and critical tasks even before listing, including deep cleaning, depersonalizing, and making little but necessary repairs.
If you’re thinking of selling your home this year, one of the many things you might be considering is whether or not you should hire a real estate agent. You think you know a few potential buyers, so you’re being tempted to try to sell your home yourself and just pocket the cash you would otherwise pay an agent.

When it comes to purchasing a home, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of finding your dream property. However, it’s important to consider the potential drawbacks of maxing out your budget for this significant investment. By buying a home that is within your means, you can maintain financial stability and preserve the ability to pursue other important financial goals.
The process of moving into a new house, even when you’ve done it a couple of times already, will always be stressful and difficult. It’s much more than relocating to a new place, especially when you have to leave a home you’ve lived in for years.
A quick scan up and down the street at the prices of homes that have recently sold will give you a starting point. However, this is not nearly enough for you to base your entire pricing strategy on. It is important for you to understand how buyers look for a home.
Owning a home is a significant milestone for many people, but what happens when you find yourself owning two homes?

Tromped through the woods with us and everything. I hope we find the perfect property in her area just so we can have her family as our friends. She was friendly, new the area and professional."

"We enjoyed working with Deborah Kling during our search for a place to retire (out of town). She was always respectful of our time and showed up on time for all showings. She went out of her way to make sure we had all the information available for each property and waited on us to check each place out, until, we were satisfied in seeing all we wanted to see. She always found properties that were within our budget and truly seemed happy to meet with us each time. If, in the future, we decide to get help from someone to buy or sell property, we will give Deborah a call. It was a very good experience for me and my wife."
