Showing Your Home
Showings will generate the most important thing for a home seller: a contract! Although it is difficult and inconvenient to keep your home presentable at all times, it is when you least expect it, that you'll get a call asking to see your home, "and we're in your neighborhood".After each showing, we will contact the agent who showed your home, to ask for feedback from the prospective buyer who toured your home. Feedback and opinions will be shared with you. If there is a second showing, Nancy will contact the buyer's agent and attempt to facilitate an offer on your home. Anytime buyers are at your home for an extended period of time, please feel free to Contact Us and she will contact the agent.
Offer to Purchase On Your Home
When an offer to purchase on your home is made, Nancy will contact you immediately and inform you of the terms of the contract. If you plan to go out of town, remember to leave a contact number with Nancy or her team. Experience dictates that we should expect a negotiating process - either verbally or in writing. Once the terms are agreed upon, the buyer's agent will finalize the offer and present it to Nancy with earnest money. Nancy will then contact you for your signature.Once You Are Under Contract
Just when you think, "Finally, I don't have to vacuum and make up the beds everyday!", your buyer will want to conduct the home inspection. This is where the buyer insures that the home is in good condition and does not require any immediate repairs. The buyer's agent will schedule the inspection with us. You will be notified of the dates for the appropriate inspections. You can expect to be contacted with the schedule for the applicable inspections:The Basic Home Inspection will cover built-in appliances, electrical system, plumbing, heating and cooling systems, roof covering (flashing, gutters), doors and windows, exterior surfaces, structural components (foundation, columns, chimneys, floors, walls, ceiling, roof), porches, decks, fireplaces, flues, crawl space and attic ventilation systems;
Radon Gas Inspection: This inspection looks for trapped radon gas, which is found in slabs and basements.
Well and Septic Inspection: If this inspection applies to the particular home you are purchasing, it will verify the quality of your water and identify any need for repairs or cleaning of the septic system;
Mold Inspection: This inspection looks for toxic mold growth that could be hazardous to one's health; Spa and/or Pool Equipment (if applicable).
Repairs that are identified as a result of these inspections are negotiable with the Seller. Please be cautious not to confuse required repairs with cosmetic repairs. Sellers are not required to make cosmetic repairs unless otherwise agreed to, in the original contract. Sellers should expect to pay at least 1 to 1.5% for home repairs requested by the Buyer after the inspection.
Repairs that the Buyer requests and that you agree to, must be satisfactorily completed prior to the closing. Nancy can recommend skilled contractors to handle these repairs; sometimes the contractors can be paid at closing.
