Questions & Answers

Do I need to stage my home?

The goal is to make your home as appealing as possible to the most potential buyers, before photos of your home are taken. Staging your home can include anything from redecorating to rearranging furniture, cleaning or other aesthetic strategies to present the home in the best possible light. You can do it yourself, have your real estate agent guide you, or hire a staging company.

What does selling a home β€˜as-is’ mean?

If someone is selling a home that needs repairs - yet chooses not to fix them - they may choose to list a property as-is. Disclosures and inspections are typical steps in the process. In an as-is sale, a buyer is willingly purchasing the home in its current state with full knowledge of its condition.

What is disclosure?

When selling a property, it is incumbent upon the seller to disclose any details about the home that might negatively affect its value.

How long will it take to sell my home?

Factors such as the time of year and market conditions play a big role in how quickly a property sells. How you price, market and stage your home are also very important variables that will affect how long a home remains on the market.

What needs to stay when I sell my home?

Catherine Youngerman - Bowman Real Estate | Jul 26, 2022

Any fixture that is β€˜attached’ or built into the house typically remains. For example, if your house has built-in bookshelves, they typically stay with the house. The same is true of kitchen or bathroom fixtures, and fireplaces. Exceptions and details can be discussed during the negotiation process.

Can I sell my home and buy another at the same time?

There are many factors that affect the housing market, but understanding what to expect - and being prepared beforehand - can make buying and selling a property at the same time possible.

What is an appraisal for when I buy a house?

Catherine Youngerman - Bowman Real Estate | Jul 26, 2022
Catherine Youngerman - Bowman Real Estate | Jul 26, 2022

A professional appraiser will inspect a property and compare it to other similar homes in the area. From there, a fair market value is determined. Unless you plan on paying all cash for a property, you will likely need a home appraisal.

How do real estate agents get paid?

A real estate agent is paid as part of the closing costs, which comes out of the sale proceeds at the end of the process.

What steps do I take to sell my home?

Catherine Youngerman - Bowman Real Estate | Jul 26, 2022
Catherine Youngerman - Bowman Real Estate | Jul 26, 2022

Your first step is to hire a real estate agent you trust. Together, you will set an asking price, prepare your home for listing, list and market your property, negotiate an offer, and close on the sale.
