Buyer Tips | Seller Tips | General Tips | Real Estate Glossary
Many buyers make home buying decisions based primarily upon emotional
reactions to the homes we show them. A freshly-painted house with clean windows
and waxed floors will sell for top dollar, while a nearby home which needs a lot
of cosmetic attention languishes on the market, even with a much lower asking
price.
If you find yourself in the position of comparing two such houses, put your
imagination to work. If the only difference is paint, cleaning, and carpeting
(or getting unsightly furniture moved out), remember that these are fairly low
ticket items that you would probably choose to do even if the house is in good
shape. If you focus your attention on the location and the condition of the
structure and the major systems, you may be able to get a
"not-very-rough" diamond at a great price. If cosmetic problems make
you nervous about the home, the structural inspection can answer most of your
questions.
