"David was responsive and answered my questions in detail. Great experience working with them. Just wanted a third party opinion on a property before selling, which is exactly what I received. Miranda (person who came to property) was communicative and nice to work with."

"I had great service! The agent who did the faucets was very polite, and professional. He did a great job, our faucets are nice and sturdy. On the washing machine issue, the agents that arrived were also polite and professional. The agent said that the machine needed to be replaced. Fortunately, the coverage I had allowed me to be approved to purchase a new one! I guess I made the right (CHOICE HWS)"

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

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%.

While it's smart to save up about 25 percent of the price of a home—to cover the down payment and closing costs—many loans require between less than 3% down to qualify. In either case, you'll need between 3 and 6 percent for the closing and moving costs as well as a strong financial history for mortgage approval.

Yes, gas fireplaces can increase your home's value by as much as 12%. They are a sought-after feature because they burn cleaner, provide more warmth, and are more convenient than wood-burning fireplaces. Modern gas inserts can also provide the traditional aesthetic appeal that buyers like. To ensure the highest return on investment, perform regular maintenance and schedule annual professional inspections.

In most cases, you can expect home automation to boost your home value. This technology makes the homeowner’s life easier and more comfortable, and some provide increased safety and protection. Buyers will likely recognize value in security systems and utility monitors, as well as comfort-focused upgrades that save on electric bills while keeping interior rooms at the desired temperature and humidity. On average, you can expect a 50% and 75% return on investment on home automation services, and potentially even more if the automation reduces homeowner’s insurance.

Yes, a bump-out in any room, whether it’s the bedroom, bathroom, or kitchen, increases home value. Bump-outs add square footage and create a more modern, appealing look, which are proven ways to increase home value. On average, bump-outs offer an ROI between 30% and 50%.
