It doesn't matter what type of ugly home you have, HomeVestors would like to make a no obligation cash offer to purchase your home for cash. Whether your home is cosmetically ugly, has ugly structural or repair issues, or has you captive in an ugly situation, you can count on HomeVestors to come to your rescue with a fast and fair cash offer.

"This is a scam, breach of contract is all you can expect from this reprehensible, unprofessional, unethically managed company. Don’t waste your time , the ratings speak for themselves. I was not looking for market value for my real estate property, in fact Joe Freeman offered a fair deal that I agreed upon but then he suddenly couldn’t meet our closing date, then it happened again and again and, yes-stupid me, AGAIN. He still remains unable to answer my calls or texts. I’ve moved out of the house I was selling to him, have now a new lease and storage rental bill and still a mortgage."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Adding a deck to your home will increase its overall value. Per Remodeling magazine's 2023 Cost vs. Value Report, building a deck is a top 15 home improvement task. Installing a wooden deck has an average return on investment (ROI) of 52%, while building a composite deck offers almost 40% ROI. The amount of value a deck adds to your home depends on deck size, type, material, age, and how well you maintain it.

In most cases, no, a seller cannot negotiate after an appraisal if they signed an offer agreement. The only exception would be if there was a contingency in the offer that stated that the offer acceptance was contingent on the appraisal amount. If that’s the case, the seller can negotiate a higher sale price to match the appraised amount. If the appraised amount comes in below the sale price, both sides have to agree to negotiate, but there may be no other option since the buyer’s lender might not approve the higher amount.

Fireplaces increase your home’s value by as much as 12%. If you're looking to increase your home's value, consider installing an electric fireplace insert or a custom electric fireplace. You can take freestanding or wall-mounted fireplaces with you when you leave, so they will have less of an impact on the value of the home.

Most experts agree that homeowners just about break even when selling a home with an outdoor kitchen. There’s a potential ROI of between 100% to 200%, but this depends on the actual design and material details of your kitchen. Keeping it properly maintained also impacts the ROI. It’s good to know, however, that you won’t lose money when installing a kitchen outside.

Some appraisers hold a Member of the Appraisal Institute designation. This accolade is the highest credential property appraisers can earn. An MAI appraisal is typically used for commercial properties.

While your lender will likely recommend an appraiser, you can also hire a professional home appraiser on your own. Choose someone who is experienced in your type of residential property, and ensure they hold all of the necessary credentials that your state or region requires.
