You could but it definitely depends on what it is. Usually, the recommended approach is to fix or replace the item. The goal is to make a great first impression! Having something worn, stained, visibly broken, etc., will not accomplish that.
This scenario just becomes another negotiation point within the overall process. A buyer could cover the entire difference, a seller could do the same, or both parties could meet anywhere in-between. We will guide you based on market conditions and the overall strategy we created before listing your home.
Usually a contract closes in 30-35 days, but it could go faster or take longer. It’s just one of many terms that are negotiated up front.
We don’t recommend this. Accurate pricing that matches the current market conditions generates more activity, which yields a higher chance of a strong offer. In our market, negotiations are more of a win-win style and buyers are often scared to insult sellers. They’ll refrain from even making an offer if they deem the difference to be too great. Also, buyers have become rather unforgiving. When they see a listing sit on the market, the first reaction is to assume something is wrong with it and they’ll pass you right by.
Surprisingly, we see the negotiation of the repair requests as the phase that gets the emotions to rise a bit. This is why we coach our sellers ahead of time to understand that a home inspector will absolutely find something and that’s ok. We know which requests to agree to and whether it’s best to just offer a credit or actually fix the item. If it’s the latter, we partner with numerous tradespeople and contractors that can resolve the issue with ease.
We are a team of licensed Realtors with a depth of experience in buying, selling, investing, and new home construction.
You could sell your home on your own, but we recommend using Blue Oak Realty Group because we are expert, full-time real estate advisors. The moment you decide to sell, it’s no longer your home. You are now marketing a product with the goal of getting someone else to picture it as their home and be emotionally invested. Partnering with us means that we will market it using the highest standards, increasing the odds for the highest return. And that’s just one part of it! You’ll also benefit from our knowledge of market analysis and nuances, negotiations, legal considerations, contracts, etc. This is our career.

The people! I love seeing neighbors jogging and walking their dogs. It takes me forever to get yard work done because I spend so much time chatting with neighbors walking by. Vermillion is a tight-knit community and I love living here.
There are about 225 single-family homes.

The proximity to so many places is a big draw. The pool, clubhouse, and playground are fantastic. Plus, there’s multiple access points to the green way!
