Hey guys! Niki here and I'd like to help you buy or sell your home. I'm not super salesey (is that even a word? lol) so you won't find me being pushy or trying to get you to settle on a house so I can move on to the next client. It does me no good to pressure you into buying something you will regret. I like my clients to take their time, view as many homes as they feel necessary until we find 'the one.' I'm patient, offer advice and guide you through the sometimes over whelming experience of of buying a home. Oh, you're selling? I got you! I'm a huge fan of social media and excellent photography. Your home puts its first foot forward on the internet. This is where 90% of people find homes to view. So, if your home isn't at the top of its game when it pops up online, you're in trouble. You only get one chance to make that first impression and I'm the agent who will help you put your homes BEST foot forward and get it sold for top dollar as soon as possible. Call me, text me, DM me, I'm always available to chat anytime!

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Yes, the age of your home can impact its value. However, age is just one of many factors that will have an effect. An older home may be perceived as needing more work and maintenance, but if you’ve kept up with repairs or done any renovations, this will increase its value. Buyers will also consider the size of the house, location, and how nearby homes are priced. Lastly, value also depends on whether it’s a buyer or seller’s market.

While parts of the appraisal are out of your control, there are some things you can do to potentially raise the home’s value. You can make necessary repairs and upgrades before the appraiser visits—an appraiser can only value what is currently part of the home, not its potential. You can also provide the appraiser with the cost of recent upgrades. The appraiser will likely increase the value of your home by about 50% or more of what you paid for those improvements.

If the value of the home you want to buy is appraised at less than the price of the offer, you may not be able to obtain a loan for the offer amount. Lenders want to ensure that the amount they’re lending isn’t more than the market value of the property, so you may have to increase your down payment to reduce the loan amount or get a second appraisal if you still want to proceed with the purchase.

Several government-backed lending programs can help first-time home buyers purchase a home with little money down. FHA, USDA, and VA loans are options for qualifying borrowers, though many conventional mortgage lenders will lower down payment rates to as low as 3 percent.

When built right, fireplaces increase the value of your home. Fireplaces are both functional and aesthetically pleasing; home buyers will usually respond to the charm fireplaces can add. The only scenarios that could lead to a fireplace depreciating a property are the following: if it’s in need of constant or immediate repair, is unusable, or isn’t up to code.
