"They came in, walked around, and left within 10 minutes.They did not calculate the liveable sq-ft correctly because they did not include the bedroom over the garage, which is heated. I brought this to their attention.They said that they would investigate and never called back or returned any of my calls or emails."

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

In most cases, installing a tennis court on your property will drive up your property taxes. Property taxes are determined, in part, based on improvements made to your property, which includes anything with a permanent foundation. Since most home tennis courts include a large concrete foundation, your property taxes will likely increase following the installation. A general rule of thumb is that if your project requires permits—like for a foundation or fencing for a tennis court—then your property taxes will be affected.

In many cases, a stamped concrete patio will make your property more valuable. Not only will you and your family likely enjoy it, but many buyers will adore the appearance and utility it brings to your yard and might be willing to pay a premium for it. Stamped concrete is also highly durable and can last a long time with proper care, and it’s relatively easy and affordable to repair. Savvy buyers should understand these upsides, which could increase interest in your property overall.

A good return on flipping a house ranges from 10% to 20% of the after-repair value. Many investors aim for a profit margin of at least 15% to ensure their efforts and risks are worthwhile. This percentage accounts for costs like repairs, financing, holding costs, and closing fees, while also providing a solid profit.

As long as the home inspection reveals no problems with the property’s structure, it shouldn’t be an issue buying an underpinned home. In fact, a properly underpinned property can be more stable than houses that have never had structural issues. However, you could face a higher insurance premium if the property has a history of structural problems. You should always request a structural engineer’s report before making a final decision.

Countertops play a significant role in determining your home's resale value. High-quality, stylish countertops can attract potential buyers and increase the overall appeal of your property. Desirable materials like granite, quartz, or marble often command a higher resale price. On the other hand, outdated or damaged countertops can deter buyers and lead to lower offers. Investing in attractive, durable countertops can be a smart move to boost your home's resale value.
