"Cindy Beline was my real estate agent when I purchased my condo, and I recently relied on Cindy again when I decided to upgrade from a condo to a house. Cindy showed me and my husband multiple homes and had valuable insights on "money pit" issues in some of the contenders. When we ultimately found our dream home through her MLS search tool, Cindy worked closely with us to develop our offer, which was complicated by the fact that it was contingent on the sale of my condo. Despite this drawback, the sellers accepted our offer after a few rounds of negotiation, on which Cindy advised. The whole process moved much more quickly than I had expected, and Cindy was critical in helping me to identify a handful of fixes/upgrades to my condo that made a difference when we put it on the market (in only three weeks!). The professional brochure that Cindy put together also helped a great deal. We received an all cash offer for asking price on the day of our first open house, which Cindy expertly conducted. Thereafter, Cindy was extremely helpful with the house inspection, addressing HICRA items (at both properties), and other issues. With her help, we achieved a simultaneous close of the sale of my condo and purchase of my new house in only two months from the day that we ratified the contingent contract on the house. A land speed record! I would definitely use Cindy again (although I hope to never move again!), and I would recommend her to anyone who wants a real go-getter real estate agent. She's the best!"

"I found the company on Angie’s List and it seemed like a good company. He was good. He was very fair, honest, and told me I did not have a problem; he did not take advantage of my worries. He seemed very professional and was very informative in telling me what I should do and look for in the future if I ever had any concerns. It was safe to stay at home when he did it; he was looking in a socket kind of thing where the air conditioning duct goes through. He did that and also tested the air. It was fine; it was not invasive at all. I thought he did a thorough check and I also thought the price was very reasonable. He said exactly when he said he would come and it was not a long delay from between the phone call and the appointments."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

A koi pond may add value to your home if it’s a feature sellers are looking for. Like pools, ponds can affect your property value depending on their condition, whether they’re a popular selling point, and how well they’re incorporated into your home’s landscape.

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.

Whether a scullery is worth it depends on how much you like to cook and entertain. If you frequently host gatherings—a scullery is likely worth the money. If you’re looking for ROI, it’s not so clear. It may not add significant value to your home, as it doesn’t increase square footage and may repurpose space that a buyer would have preferred to remain as-is (like a laundry room). 

Adding a well can increase your home value by as much as 10%, especially if you live on a property without a connection to municipal water. But you’ll want to hire a skilled well and pump contractor for installation because an improperly installed well could actually decrease the property value.

Yes, a well-maintained gazebo can increase your property's value and marketability. The most appealing gazebos to potential buyers are typically large, well-designed, and constructed from high-quality, durable materials. Extra features like built-in seating or electrical outlets can also be attractive. Conversely, small, flimsy, or run-down gazebos are unlikely to add value. While a gazebo can be a positive feature, it generally offers a lower return on investment compared to a deck. It's also worth noting that professional landscaping, in general, can increase a home's property value by up to 15%.
