Before we list — we PREP.

by Barbara Scarlett

Before we list — we PREP.

In today’s market, buyers are extremely price sensitive.
They don’t want to purchase a home and immediately have to:
Replace a furnace
Install new A/C
Reshingle the roof
Upgrade the electrical panel

Affordability is tighter than ever, and buyers want move-in-ready.

That’s why when I walk through a home before listing, I’m looking for anything that could become a negotiation point later — and we handle it upfront:

Fix it now
Or price it accordingly
Or disclose with full cost-to-cure info

The more we prepare, the stronger the offer we attract.

Thinking of listing? DM me — I’ll show you exactly how we prep your home for today’s market.
