By providing peace of mind to prospective buyers, these steps can enhance the salability of your property:

* Written disclosure

• A written property disclosure statement is required by our office to have on file for the benefit of both the Seller and the Buyer.  This statement gives the Seller opportunity to make mention of the improvements made to the property and also allows for past problems to be revealed and therefore rendering the Seller harmless in regard to disclosed matters.  Buyers benefit from knowing upfront the improvements made to the property along with the previous problems that the current homeowner has experienced. 

*Home warranty

• A home warranty can give prospective Buyers peace of mind by providing repair-or-replace coverage of major home operating systems and appliances.  A home warranty is affordable for a few hundred dollars and shows good-faith on behalf of the Seller.

*Professional home inspection

• Professional inspections, such as structural, roof and termite, will reveal the current condition of the property.  Some buyers would like to know that the current owner has gone through the additional steps of making sure the property was ready and "in good condition" to be placed on the market for sale.
