What You Need to Focus on When Touring a Jupiter Home

There are a variety of opportunities in the South Florida real estate market for both buyers and sellers. If you're a prospective buyer click here for a full home search, or if you're considering placing your home on the market, get a free home value report, right here.

One of the biggest issues we have with buyers is their inability to see through a home that might have some bad carpet, bad paint, or other minor imperfections. This is a mental hurdle for everyone, but today we want to focus on helping you see through the clutter and see the true beauty of a home.

 
When you are looking at a home, you want to focus on things like the floor plan and the location, and the bones of the house. Don't worry about the carpet, or the paint, or the furniture. All of these things are minor fixes and will completely change your opinion of the property.

One other thing we try to do to combat this is encouraging sellers to stage their homes. However, if you are looking at a home that needs some work, don't fret. A lot of times, many small imperfections can be used as a bargaining tool to bring the price of the home down. So keep an open mind when it comes to buying homes.

If you have any questions for us, be sure to give me a call or send me an email. We would be glad to help out.

How we helped Bruce find a home by showing him all of the options

 
"We love the Simmonds team. They worked with us for a week, and found us a home. The home we’re in now wasn’t what we were looking for initially, but they were very open. They showed us multiple solutions, and allowed us to come to our own conclusions. We’re very happy with our new home! Their support staff stayed in constant touch with us and followed up on everything. The support level is phenomenal!"

When Is the Best Time to Sell?

Today we want to answer a question that we frequently get from sellers. A lot of them are unsure of when they should list their home so they ask us, "When is the best time to list my home? Is there a best time?"

Well, there really is no specific "best" time to sell your home. If it's priced well and shows well, it will sell. That being said, if you do have a home, a town-home, or a condo near the beach, you may want to think about getting it on the market sooner rather than later. 

Many visitors looking for a place in the area will be visiting soon. Most people want to find a place now, so that they can move in later with no complications. Making sure your property is on the market now ensures that everyone who is visiting this time of year will have their eyes on it.

If you have any questions about listing your home, or about anything else real estate related, give us a call or send us a quick email. We can't wait to hear from you!
