ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS to discuss with Sara
PRE-LISTING HOME INSPECTION : In cases where we are looking to get multiple offers and a firm sale on negotiation day, it is usually helpful to have a pre-listing home inspection completed at the property to provide to buyers as an information item. This helps buyers be comfortable that the condition of the property is sound, and identifies any items which the Seller may want to repair before marketing, or that requires disclosure “as-is”
TEST ALL APPLIANCES : Make sure to test all appliances in the house and report their condition and function to your realtor for disclosure
KNOW YOUR RENTAL ITEMS: If you have any rental items (hot water tank, air conditioner, etc) or any service plans that have commitments / amortized payment schedules, and are being transferred along with the house, we need this information to ensure full disclosure of costs to the buyer. And don’t forget any alarm system contracts you might have!
UTILITIES BILLS : It is often helpful to have copies of utility bills available for buyer review. We suggest, if possible, a statement for each utility per season (4 gas bills, 4 electric etc) so that the buyer can establish usage at different times of the year for a more accurate annual expectation.
THINGS YOU WANT TO EXCLUDE : Often, there are items, or sentimental features at a property that a seller may want to take with them. Eg: Light fixture / appliance; window treatments that match bed-sets; those hostas in the garden that your mother planted, etc. Please ensure that your realtor has a complete list of the items that you can’t live without so that we can exclude them from the listing agreement right away. If they are easily removed, it is suggested the item be taken away from the property prior to the listing going live, to avoid any issues later on.
