the market value of a home. Others can cost
more than you’ll ever get back.


So, when choosing a “fixer-upper”, look
carefully at the work that needs to be done.
General painting, and bathroom or kitchen
renovations typically increase the resale
value of a house. “Invisible” repairs such as
plumbing, electrical, or heating systems
do not.


Before you buy, work with your REALTOR® to
develop a market value estimate of the
house you are considering as though the
renovations you’re contemplating are
already complete.


If the math works, go for it. Buying a “fixerupper”
can be very rewarding.

stressful or exciting. It all depends on the help you get.
That’s why it’s so important to choose the right real estate
agent for your relocation.



It’s easy to come up with a list of agents that specialize in the
area to which you’re moving. Just check the Internet or
contact local real estate offices.



But how do you select a REALTOR® that is the best fit for
your requirements? After all, you may not get a chance to
meet prospective agents face-to-face.



Here are some tips that can help:



• Ask for references. Ideally, you want to speak to other clients
whom the agent has helped to relocate into that area.



• Make sure the agent has the time to help you. You may be
flying in for just a few days to look at several home
possibilities.Will the agent be able to clear his/her schedule
to assist you?



• Does the agent specialize in the type of home and/or
neighborhood you’re looking for? You want your relocation
to go smoothly. If you need a mid-sized family home, don’t
take chances on an agent who sells mainly condos.



• Does the agent have a successful track record of helping
remote home shoppers? Because you are relocating, you will
have special needs and issues that only an agent with
experience can handle.



• Finally, do you get a good feeling about the agent? Does
he/she strike you as friendly, helpful and knowledgeable?
You want to feel comfortable with your choice. If your gut
says “No”, so should you.



Picking the right agent won’t make your relocation seem quite
like a holiday trip. But it will help make it go more smoothly.
If you need help finding an agent in another town, city or region,
call today.
