No problem, we would love to help by giving you some tips and advice. Modern Times Homes has been buying and selling Illinois houses for so long, and we helped many homeowners to decide which upgrades to do to bring the values of the house up.
When potential buyers are looking for a dream house, they prefer to have a move-in ready house. All they want to do is to move in, unpack and enjoy their new place.is this something you could offer to potential buyers?
Have a walk through your house, inside and outside. Think what there that is needs to be fixed or replaced. The more work you do the better price it will sell for.
For example, your roof and siding look like they need to be replaced. It is a pricey project to do but either way, if you don’t do it you will end up receiving a lower offer or you will be required to give credit to the buyer to replace it himself.
Of course not all of us can afford gut rehabs, so a good idea would be first managing your budget and starting to fix things that are mandatory to fix. For example if your roof is leaking and your bathroom needs some updates, we would recommend first fixing your roof.
Potential buyers also like when the house is presenting nice from the outside. If you can’t afford replacing stuff maybe just do some light fixing, like repainting siding, or adding some flowers to landscaping. Also, changing the paint color of the front door would make a huge difference.
If you feel like your house requires some major updates, and you don’t have money to do it or don’t really feel like doing it, consider selling it to Modern Times Homes. We take houses as is and we pay cash. We are able to close in as little as two weeks, and we cover all the closing costs. Please give us a call at 847-242-2212 for no obligation cash offer.
