Moving for the military?

Well, at Maverick Rose, we’ve been honored to help homeowners (INCLUDING veterans and active-duty military personnel) sell their homes quickly for a fair cash price.

And we understand that selling under PCS pressure can be a little overwhelming. So here are some quick tips to help you sell in a timely and profitable manner!

Hire An Agents With Low DOM Average — If you’re going to sell the traditional route, then make sure you look for an agent with a low average Days-On-Market. The faster they’ve sold homes in the past, the faster they’ll likely be able to sell your home.

Avoid Selling As FSBO — Homes sold as For Sale By Owner typically sell slower than other MLS listings, so it’s probably good to avoid this option altogether.

Consider Renting The Home — The downside about selling your home for a military move is that it might be a bad time to sell… if that’s the case, you might consider renting the home out until the market improves, or just rent it out long-term and benefit from the cash flow.

Consider a Geo-Bach Move — This isn’t the most appealing option, but it is an option. Military personnel who move and leave behind their family at their previous station are known as Geo-Bachelors or Geo-Bachelorettes. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do.

Sell To a Professional Homebuyer — At Maverick Rose, we can buy your home as-is for a fair cash price and close in as little as two weeks. If you want to learn more, give us a call at (615) 905-6040!

Renting vs. Buying?

Which is better?

Maybe you’re in the process of selling your home and you’re wondering whether it’d be better to rent or buy...

Well, at Maverick Rose, we’ve been helping home sellers get a fair cash price for their home in Nashville for quite some time. Over the years, we’ve seen the pros and cons of both buying AND renting.

So we thought we’d take a moment to share those pros and cons with you.

RENTING PROS
No Property Taxes
Not Stuck With Depreciating Home
Repairs Are Paid For
No Down Payment

RENTING CONS
Rent Annual Increases
Doesn’t Build Equity
Can’t Customize Property Without Owner’s Consent

BUYING PROS
Builds Equity
Lower Monthly Cost For Larger House
Pride of Homeownership
Customize Your Living Space

BUYING CONS
Pay For Maintenance
HOA Fees
Large Down Payment Upfront
Risk Of Decreasing Value
Property Taxes

In our opinion, buying is a good idea if you can afford the down payment and don’t mind taking on the risking of OWNING the asset, while renting is a good choice if you can’t afford the down payment and/or don’t want to be responsible for the value of the asset.

Hopefully, you now have an idea of whether renting or buying is a fit for your needs. If you need to SELL YOUR HOME, however, then give us a call at (615) 905-6040 — we specialize in helping people sell their homes fast and as-is for a fair cash price!

Is it a good time to sell your home?

There are a lot of different factors that go into selling a home. Can you find a good real estate agent? Is the market advantageous right now? Can you afford the costs of selling a home? Has your home become more than you can handle (too many stairs, too many repairs, too much cleanup… etc)?

The timing can be tricky.

But at [company], we’ve helped a lot of people sell their homes fast for cash in [market_city]. And here are some signs that typically mean it’s a good time to sell your house…

The Market is Hot — If the market is in a great place and it’s possible to sell for more than what was paid to purchase the property, it might not be a bad idea to sell and pocket the extra money (or invest it into a new home). The decision to sell a home isn’t purely financial for a lot of people, but this is certainly something to consider… especially if you have a lot of equity.

Life Event — Sometimes life makes it so that you have to move elsewhere. Maybe it’s a job change, a family member's health, financial problems, or something else. If you have to move, then you’ll probably want to sell your home... unless you’re up for the challenge of renting out the property and managing it from afar.

Outgrown The Home — Maybe you’ve outgrown your home. This could mean that your family has grown and you need more rooms… or it could mean that your family has moved out and it’s time to downsize. Whatever the case, there’s no harm in selling and moving to a new home that better fits your needs.

If you want to sell your house as-is fast for cash, give us a call at [phone]. We’d love to explain our process to you and make you a fair cash offer!

Wondering how much your home is going to appraise for over the next few years?

Buying a home is exciting. Trying to find the perfect house — one that fits the budget and all of the criteria buyers tend to have for their living situation.

But selling a home? It can be a little complicated to know when to sell, how to sell, and how much is reasonable to expect to get for the home.

Well, the rate of appreciation varies MASSIVELY by city, suburb, and even neighborhood… but the average in the U.S. is around 3.8% per year.

This means that we might expect a home that’s currently worth $200,000 to be worth $207,600 at this same time next year. Three years from now that house might be worth about $223,677.

That’s the magic of real estate appreciation.

If you’ve owned your home for a long time, though, then maybe it’s appreciated enough and it’s a good time to sell. After all, there is a point where a home’s age starts to negate its appreciation value — if you’re making a lot of repairs or updates to your home, then it’s likely that the appreciation rate of your property is waning.

Still, you’ll have to consider your market and your neighborhood to get a better idea of how much your home is going to appreciate over the next 5-10 years.

(And to be clear, there’s no guarantee of appreciation… especially if the market takes a turn.)

Hopefully, this info helps you make the best possible decision with your home!

If you do want to sell, though, then give us a call at 615-905-6040. We’ve been helping home sellers for a long time in Middle Tennessee and we can make you a fair cash offer and close in as little as two weeks. We’ll even pay all closing costs!

Stuck with an investment property? :(

Real estate is a great investment and you’ve probably read somewhere before that there’s the potential to make a lot of money in repairing and flipping properties or keeping them as rentals.

That’s true!

But also… the market fluctuates. And sometimes, real estate investing doesn’t feel like everything it was cracked up to be.

For example, if you buy a home to fix-and-flip and then the market takes a downward turn, that can make selling at a profit pretty difficult.

Or maybe you end up with destructive tenants in a rental and they do a lot of damage.

Whatever the case… you wouldn’t be the first person to feel stuck with a real estate investment.

So here’s a quick list of exit strategies!

Live in The House — If the home is still in decent shape and you don’t want to have to manage it as an investment property, then you might consider moving into it. As a primary residence, there are no worries about selling it for a profit or finding good tenants.

Rent it Out — If the market takes a downturn after the repairs have been made to the home but before you were able to flip it, then it’s probably a good idea to rent it out. This will mean not making the money back for a little bit. But as long as the tenants are good, the house can still be sold once the market recovers.

Sell To a Professional Homebuyer — If the home is in disrepair, or even if you just want to get out of the situation altogether, you can consider selling to a professional home buyer like us over at Maverick Rose. We can make you a fair cash offer and buy your home as-is for cash… we’ll even pay all closing costs. Give us a call at 615-905-6040 to learn more.

Hope that helps!

Do you need to relocate for work?

Depending on how far you’re moving, that can be a big job that requires a lot of time, effort, and money — hopefully, the new employer will help pay for the cost of the move.

In fact, if you’re wondering what sort of costs to expect, here’s a general breakdown to help!

Costs of Selling — If planning to sell a house by going the traditional route on the MLS through a real estate agent, one should expect to spend 7% to 10% of the sales price of their home on home prep, commissions, and closing costs. On a $250,000 home, that’s up to $25,000. If your home needs a lot of repairs, then this cost will obviously increase.

Costs of Moving — Moving itself can also be pretty spending. The cost here will depend on how far you’re moving and how much stuff you’re going to take along. You might need to rent a truck or even hire a moving company. Make sure to check and see if your new job will help with these relocation expenses.

Costs of Settling In — Don’t forget to budget for the costs of settling into your new home. Whether buying or renting, there are some upfront costs for that... including furnishing the home or updating decor as needed to fit your new location.

And if you want to sell your house as-is fast for cash rather than going the traditional route (which can take up to 3-6 months!), give us a call at 615-905-6040. We can make you a fair cash offer, close in as little as two weeks, and we’ll pay all closing costs!

Are contractors botching the work on your home?

This happens wayyy too often.

Some contractors think that they can do poor quality work and get away with it.

Unfortunately, they usually do get away with it…

And sometimes the best thing you can do is fire them before they do more damage to your home.

Here are some recommendations for navigating this difficult and unfortunate situation…

Check Your Contract — Most homeowners don’t know it, but a lot of times there are contractual penalties for firing a contractor before the work is done or the bill is paid. That’s why it’s extremely important to read the contract and understand the ramifications of canceling the contract. Ideally, you’ll want to find some way that the contractor has broken their part of the agreement, which justifies them being fired without penalty.

Get Adequate Documentation — Before firing the contractor, make sure to document everything. Take pictures and videos before and after the work they’ve done. Record conversations if necessary. And take notes on all relevant information that will help you if it goes to court.

Consider Mediation — If things get ugly, you might consider hiring a mediation company to help you and the contractor come to an agreement outside of court.

If all of that sounds like too much hassle… did you know you can sell your house WITHOUT fixing it up first? At Maverick Rose, we’ll buy your house as-is for cash and we can close in as little as two weeks. Give us a call at 615-905-6040 to get your fair cash offer!

Thinking of updating your home but don’t know where to start?

Well, at Maverick Rose, we’ve been working with real estate in Middle Tennessee for quite a while now. And we’ve learned a thing or two about upgrading and repairing older homes.

In fact, to help YOU, here are some of the most important updates/repairs that should be made based on the age of your home…

1950s — Update the home to have three-pronged outlets ($150 - $300) and replace “busy” flooring with hardwood. Or refinish hardwood floors for about $1.50 to $5.00 per square foot.

1960s — Check for and deal with asbestos and lead-based paint. It’s best to hire a professional to deal with these problems. These projects will likely cost upwards of $5,000. Also, consider taming the interior color scheme as wallpaper was popular in the 60s.

1970s — A lot of faulty electrical panels were distributed in the 70s from Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) and Zinsco. You’ll want to make sure that the electrical wiring in your house is safe. Also, consider renovating the bright and obnoxious flooring that was oh so popular in the 70s.

1980s — Polybutylene was a cheap and flexible plastic used in plumbing systems in the 80s. Consider replacing these as they can reduce the value of homes from this time period and scare off buyers. Also, consider updating those 80s style kitchen, cabinets, and countertops.

1990s — Exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS) was a popular insulation system in the 90s that’s now been shown to be faulty. It’s a good idea to have an inspector check out your home insulation. Also, consider renovating brass and gold fixtures in the home.

2000s — There was a big housing boom in the 2000s, but that made for some homes that had rushed construction. Get your home inspected for common problems like cracked floors and water-logged insulation.

And if you’re looking to sell your home fast for cash, give us a call at 615-905-6040. We’ll make you a fair cash offer and we can close in as little as two weeks!

Selling your house? 🏠

Well, it’s a good idea to be prepared for negotiations.

Always remember that — if you haven’t signed a contract yet — it’s still possible to negotiate the price and buying conditions with your real estate agent and the home buyer.

In fact, you should.

(You want to make as much money as possible, after all!)

But how do you do that?

Well here are a few tips!

Put an Expiration Date on Your Counter Offer — This is a great way to create a sense of urgency in the buyers. Adding an expiration date to the counter offer will show them that you mean business.

Agree to Pay Closing Costs — Agreeing to pay all closing costs will sometimes make the buyer more lenient on the selling price and they’ll be willing to pay more for your home.

Be Realistic — One of the main reasons that certain properties take a long time to sell is that they’re overpriced. It’s important to try to remain unemotional about the sale of your home and that the price is set at what it’s actually worth.

If you want to skip the negotiation process altogether… we get it. At Maverick Rose, we help home sellers sell their properties quickly for a fair cash price. We pay all closing costs and we can close in as little as two weeks. Give us a call at 615-905-6040 to learn more!

How do you tell your tenants that you’re going to sell your house?

This can be a difficult conversation to have… especially if you’re worried that the tenants will get upset, become difficult, or lash out after they are told.

But we’ve worked with tons of different homeowners in Middle Tennessee and here are some helpful tactics for breaking the news to your tenants.

Be Open & Honest — Try to be as open and honest with your tenants as possible about what is going to happen. Will they have to move? Can they stay? When will they need to leave for showings? If they are willing to cooperate, that will make everything a whole lot easier.

Get Clear About Their Lease — Look at the lease your tenants have in order to figure out what’s going to happen to them. Do you want them to leave or are they allowed to stay? Be upfront with what is going to happen in this regard so they know what to expect and can plan accordingly.

Ask For Their Cooperation — In this instance, being direct is best; simply ask for the tenant’s cooperation. If you’re reasonable and they’re reasonable, then it shouldn’t be that big of a deal and they should be more than happy to help as needed.

Call Us If Things Get Dicey — Not all tenants are going to be pleased about this news, unfortunately. Some tenants even lash out and destroy property. If things get out of hand, give us a call at 615-905-6040. We can buy your property as-is and even deal with evicting your tenants if necessary.

Looking for a real estate agent to help with probate?

Going through probate can be a long and challenging process.

And the last thing anyone wants is to choose a real estate agent that makes the probate process MORE DIFFICULT than it needs to be.

Ideally, you’ll want to work with an agent who has a lot of experience with probate properties.

But how do you know if the agent actually knows what they’re talking about?

At Maverick Rose, we’ve been buying and selling real estate for quite a few years now, and here are some questions that we recommend asking agents to determine if they’re experts at the probate process.

Are You Educated in Probate? — Why not just ask the agent outright? They might not be completely honest, but that’s when you can ask more detailed questions to find out the truth.

How Many Probate Transactions Have You Done? — A real estate agent who’s a true expert at the probate process will have done a sizeable number of probate transactions. They might not know the exact number, but it should be clear that they’ve done quite a few.

How Do Probate Sales and Traditional Sales Differ? — If a real estate agent can’t explain the difference between the probate sales process and the traditional sales process, then they definitely don’t know what they’re talking about. Make sure to work with an agent who’s educated on the ins and outs of probate in your area.

If you decide that you want to sell the property as-is, fast for cash rather than going the traditional sales route, then give us a call at 615-905-6040. We can make you a fair cash offer and close in as little as two weeks!
