Don't be Fearful of a Home Inspection

A professional home inspection protects both you and the buyer. It allows both you and the buyer the opportunity to learn about the property's defects.

A home inspection usually covers the following:

*Plumbing conditions - if there is leakage or clogging
*Roofing conditions - the extent of deterioration, if there is leakage
*Electrical conditions - if there are inadequate circuits or potential fire hazards
*Structural problems - if there are problems with the underlying foundation of your home

As a seller, the home inspection reports protect you because it establishes the actual condition of the property at the time of sale.

I actually recommend that the seller gets a home inspection when we put the home on the market. This will keep a sale from falling through in the future. So many times I have found that issues unknown to the seller will bring a closing to a screeching halt! In order to keep this from happening lets get it done so we have no surprises!

Making a Good First Impression

If you want buyers to be interested in your home, you need to show it in its best light. A good first impression can influence a buyer into making an offer; it influences a buyer emotionally and visually. In addition, what the buyer first sees is what they think of when they consider the asking price.

A bad first impression can dissuade a potential buyer. Don't show your property until it's all fixed up. You do not want to give buyers the chance to use the negative first impression they have as means of negotiation.

Ask around for the opinions others have of your home. Real estate agents who see houses everyday can give solid advice on what needs to be done. Consider what architects or landscape designers have to say. What you need are objective opinions, and it's sometimes hard to separate the personal and emotional ties you have for the home from the property itself.

Typically, there are some general fix ups that need to be done both outside and on the inside. As a seller, you should consider the following:

*Landscaping - Has the front yard been maintained? Are areas of the house visible to the street in good condition?
*Cleaning or Redoing the driveway - Is your driveway cluttered with toys, tools, trash etc.?
*Painting - Does both the exterior and the interior look like they have been well taken care of?
*Carpeting - Does the carpet have stains? Or does the carpet look old and dirty?

Check out the land for sale at Dale Hollow at http://sheriewomack1.point2agent.com

Dale Hollow is a very clean and clear lake. I am honestly not one to like to swim in a lake but Dale Hollow is the exception that. There is nothing better than to go boating on such a beautiful lake. The water is pristine, the views are amazing and the wild life is awesome. I don't know of many places in the world that a eagle can soar above you while you are riding a jet ski. The land around the lake is all protected by the core of engineers. So there are no private docks on the lake. There are however several great marinas to choose from. There is also a horse riding trail between the Willow Grove Marina and Lilly Dale Marina. This is an amazing riding trail with breath taking views of the lake. Dale Hollow Lake has over 600 miles of shore line and is in Tennessee and Kentucky. Email me for suggestions on where to stay while you are visiting. If you are looking for property or a home at Dale Hollow I would love to show you our amazing area. sherie@choiceoftn.com

Historically speaking when we have an active hurricane season Realtor in Tennessee tend to get busy. I can't say that I blame anyone for that. I am watching tv and it looks like Ike is really making a big mess. I do pray for those that are effected by it. I am in Middle Tennessee and would not have it any other way. I will stick with our mountains, streams, and lakes. We have low taxes, great schools. safe neighborhoods, and NO Ike. Please be careful if you are in the path of this storm. We are praying for you!
