Mike from Copper Creek is the real deal. His quote was fair and he stuck to the timeline. While I watched a little of his work, I could tell he was meticulous in his methods. Great price, great work, and I would highly recommend him.

Real Estate Agents questions, answered by experts

Avoid using a home equity loan for non-essential or short-term expenses like vacations, luxury purchases, or temporary financial fixes. It’s best to reserve home equity loans for long-term investments, such as home improvements, that can add value to your property or financial position.

If you are trying to sell a home with asbestos siding, most jurisdictions force you to disclose this in official documentation about the home. Some potential buyers may not want to purchase a home with asbestos siding, which could negatively affect their health if the siding becomes disturbed. However, as long as the siding is in good condition, some buyers may not see it as a disadvantage. You could take on the cost to replace asbestos siding if you have concerns over this material affecting your home’s resale value.

They maintain profitability by setting competitive rental prices, reducing vacancies through effective marketing, and ensuring tenants renew leases by offering well-maintained properties.

The purpose of the home appraisal determines which party pays for it. You’re generally responsible for the cost if you need to know the current value of your home to refinance your mortgage, though in some instances the lender will pay for it. The buyer pays for the appraisal when they are applying for their mortgage.

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.
