Will Cinderella find her way out

of the ashes in Garden Valley?

It’s true! Garden Valley Real Estate looked more like a pumpkin than a shiny carriage in 2007 compared to the recent past. Residential sales were down some, while land sales got hit harder. In previous years land inventory was hard to come by. In 2007 land inventory skyrocketed. We are facing 2008 with a 5 year inventory level. The national news couldn’t be more dismal. CNN, MSNBC and the Statesman (just to mention a few) have some folks hiding their cash in the dust bin. The wicked stepmother is everywhere. Is there any hope for a handsome prince?

Home Inspections! Making Money For Garden Valley Sellers!

November 20th, 2007 Categories: Garden Valley Real Estate, Garden Valley Sellers

Why would a Seller consider paying for a home Inspection? Isn’t that up to the Buyer? In a competitive market your listing package should include this valuable tool.

Garden Valley Sellers Tell All about Home Inspection Cash Benefits:

Preparation

What is the inspector looking for? Perform your own pre-inspection. Address any items that need attention.

Presentation

The inspector must have access to all areas of your home. Start to de-cluttter before he arrives and you’ll be ready for showings, too. “Get Packing”

Partnership

The home inspector is your friend. Having an inspection in your listing package immediately removes some of the Buyers risk and tells him you have taken the extra step to make your home Buyer Ready.

Cost

The cost of a Home Inspection in the Garden Valley market can run between $250 and $500 (don’t make the inspector move the boxes himself!). Pennies when you consider the cost of negotiating repairs at closing. Oh, by the Way! A Sellers Home Inspection is a marketing tool. Ask your agent to share in the cost.

Time

A Seller home inspection avoids delays, or worse. A Garden Valley home inspection can take from 10 - 20 business days. Any flaws could send the Buyer back to the negotiating table. Worse yet, the Buyer walks. All this time your home is pending on the MLS and no agents are showing it. You better hope it’s not November in Idaho.

The Big Payoff - Cash!!

A Seller home inspection can save you big money. Flaws that are found, after the Purchase Contract is signed, open the Seller up for renewed negotiation. By now, all of your precious belongings are in the moving van. You have lost all leverage. The Buyer may want thousands to make the repairs.
