Buy or Sell Property Through Richmond Specialist Realtor Nari
The real estate market is so up and down that it can be hard to decide when to buy your first home. There are many things you need to keep in mind before making the decision to begin looking for a home to buy.
Online, September 2, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Today's market instability has made the prospect of buying or selling a home seems much more frightening. How do you know your house in five years will be worth what you're paying for it? How do you make certain you are selling your home for the best possible price? What if the market changes next month and you lose thousands of dollars?
Calm down. House buying and selling, like any other business transaction, is based more on common sense than anything. Stop panicking and think about the following simple rules.
A house is really worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Everything else is a guideline. This is why celebrities can sell their houses for three and four times the going rate for similar houses in similar neighborhoods and why a home that was the site of a grisly murder takes a hit in value, even though it's just as nice as the homes around it.
You can never have too much information about a house before buying - or selling. What do you really know about a house that you've just walked into? Nearly nothing. Tray ceilings may hide extensive termite damage, and that finished basement may be covering up year's worth of water damage. Or perhaps the curve on the road out front has led to dozens of car accidents in the front yard. Or maybe the house floods when there's a heavy rain.
Instead of jumping right into a home purchase, make sure you investigate the history of the home, hire a home assessor, and ask all the questions you can think of. If at any point you feel uncomfortable, you should rethink the purchase entirely.
Never trust nobody's word. Unfortunately, many people will say anything to make that house sale. If you take their word for it, you're making a mistake. Even if you know the seller or buyer or real estate broker, even if he's your brother-in-law or your wife's best friend, their word is worth the paper it's written on. Whenever any promise is made, don't trust it until you get it in writing.
