RESEARCH THE LOCATION The location of a home directly impacts the value and demand of the property. Do your research to find
PAGE R3 Friday, December 11, 2020
Before buying a property, you should know how to understand it’s resale potential. Ensuring it will appeal to others if you must make a move is necessary to make the purchase a positive investment. One way to stay on top of your home’s value after the purchase is by hiring an appraiser to estimate its worth. They will analyze factors like the structure’s quality, the square footage, a home’s rooms and the neighborhood’s characteristics. Their expertise is beneficial to gain before putting in an offer on a property, even if the seller has already hired their own professional. As you navigate open houses and private showings, know what to look for when judging the resale value of your potential home.
Even if you plan to purchase your forever home, it’s essential to think of the future. Life may take you in an unexpected direction.
Daily Journal Weekly Real Estate
Judging a Home’s Resale Value
out about its school systems, economy and nearby entertainment. Finding a property developed in an up-and-coming neighborhood can turn your initial purchase into a sizable return in the future. Even if you don’t have or plan to have children, local schools are essential to increase the value of a home. When you live in an area without nearby educa-
tional institutions, your buyers’ pool is limited to a specific collection of purchasers by mostly excluding families. CURB APPEAL The home’s interior may have been the main selling point, but make sure the exterior shows off plenty of curb appeal. The outside of your property is the first thing others notice as they pull in for a listing or drive
by to view it in person. Even if it lacks appeal right now, consider how you can improve it. Sometimes, a fresh coat of paint and an investment in landscaping can improve the appearance dramatically. RED FLAGS Besides looking for the best features of a home, consider these red flags before committing to mak-
ing an offer. • It’s been on the market for an extended period. • It’s the highest-priced listing in the neighborhood. • The home requires significant renovations before it is suitable for living. Research crime rates, the police presence and the types of businesses that thrive to ensure the community is safe.

Host a Virtual Celebration
3318 Conway Rd Farmington, MO 63640
HOW TO THROW A VIRTUAL PARTY Virtual holiday parties require the same amount of planning as in-person holidays. Taking the time to incorporate special details will make your guests appreciate the party even more. Here are some essentials: • A strong internet connection. • An easy-to-use software platform. • Plenty of notice for your guests. • A holiday theme.
• A couple of fun group activities. Whether you’re planning a party for your family, friends or office, remember to keep things light and enjoyable. The last thing you want to do when hosting a virtual party is to make your guests feel like they are wasting their time.
DON’T FORGET THE DETAILS Remember that many of your friends and family may be suffering from video conference fatigue due to the increased number of online calls their jobs may have required in 2020. Be flexible with guests joining and leaving when they can, especially given their extra responsibilities juggling work, kids, school and chores around the house these days. If you have a theme in mind, be sure to share it with your guests ahead of time so they can buy any materials, food, drinks or outfits that you recommend. Picture planning a virtual wine and cheese tasting but forgetting to tell your guests to buy wine and cheese! If you’re throwing the party, it’s your responsibility to make sure these details aren’t missed. Sending supplies to your virtual guests in advance is an easy way to get everyone excited and prepared for the party, so make sure you budget for any extra costs you may have to incur or ask guests to chip in. Follow these tips and you’ll be on your way to throwing a perfect virtual holiday party this year.

TAKE PROFESSIONAL PICTURES Since many homebuyers do their research online first, painting your property in its best light is imperative. Hire a real estate photographer to document all four corners of your home and yard. Make sure to highlight bathrooms, bedrooms, entertainment spaces and the landscaping.
