‘I Can’t Afford to Remodel’ Question:

I bought a home 10 years ago, and since that time my significant other has been remodeling it by himself, inside and out. Nothing is complete and due to an urgent medical issue he will not be able to finish the job. I cannot afford to hire someone to complete the work. What are the options for selling the house “as is?” Are there any? Should I look at foreclosure?

Answer:

Selling the home as-is certainly is an option, but first you need to see what other choices are available. Let’s start with value. Can the property in its present state sell for more than the current debt plus marketing costs? The answer will depend on local market conditions. For specifics, speak with several local real estate brokers.

Q& A

ASK OUR BROKER By Peter G. Miller

with local lenders. Is there another way to complete the repairs? For example, Rebuilding Together (http:// rebuildingtogether.org/) says it “provides critical repairs and renovations for low-income homeowners across the United States.” During the past 25 years it has helped more than 150,000 homeowners. What about neighborhood groups, such as local religious congregations, unions or community housing organizations? Can they help finalize repairs? Ask around. As to a foreclosure — that should be a last option. It may well be there are other choices that can be made, choices which will not damage your credit or require you to move.

If you want to sell the home, then perhaps market it as a “handyman” special. There are lots of people who are good with tools and might like a chance to complete the work started at your property. Does the property have to be sold? Can you continue to live in the property with the current mortgage? By any chance do you qualify for help under a government program, such as the Home Affordable Refinance Program or Home Affordable Modification Program? If you qualify for these programs your monthly costs could decline substantially. Start with your current mortgage servicer – the company that collects your monthly payments – and see if you qualify for a loan modification. Keep careful records detailing your calls, including dates, times, with whom you spoke, what information they requested, etc. When sending material to them always send information by certified mail, return receipt requested, so you have a record of your exchanges. If your mortgage servicer cannot help, speak

taken good care of the home and will be easy to work with when it comes to negotiations and closing tasks,” she adds. Will Rogers, broker/Realtor in New York, says clean, well-composed text also makes a difference in other literature created about a home. “Sale sheets that are distributed when viewing the home should have the same proper spelling and grammar as an online listing,” Rogers says. “However, it is perfectly acceptable to use abbreviations in literature and forms of communication that customarily use short cuts, such as classified ads and tweets.” Krupsaw agrees. “Twitter and texting have earned their place in real estate as modes of quick and efficient communication in today’s very fast-paced market,” she says. “Today, clear communication is about adjusting the style to the mode of communication, so listing descriptions and printed marketing materials are different from Twitter and texting.” To ensure that a home listing is wellwritten and grammatically correct, sellers should provide their agents with a list

of details and special features about their residences, and the agents should carefully spell check and fact check things like proper names (e.g., “Jacuzzi” is a brand name, not a synonym for hot tub), says Ed MacLaughlin, agent in Hermosa Beach, California. Keep in mind, however, that many multiple listing services have tight word or character limits, so agents often have to pack a lot of information in a small space, which is why abbreviations are common in such listings. “Determine ahead of time which features are most important to describe or point out, and stick to abbreviations everyone knows and understands,” Krupsaw says.
