Should I Get Inspections Done Prior to Listing My Home

Image
What are contingencies it's where a buyer has made an offer on a home and the seller has accepted it? But the finalized sale is contingent upon certain criteria being met. These criteria or contingencies typically fall under four major categories, appraisal loan, approval inspections, and reports and disclosures. The buyer has time to do their due diligence in all of these areas. In regards to inspections in our area, the typical inspections are home inspections and termite inspections. And if your home has septic or a well expect for inspections to be done on those as well, depending on where you live, the buyer may want to have other inspections like mold their H V a C soil, et cetera. It depends on what is customary due to problems or issues that typically arise in that area. In regards to reports, those encompass full disclosure on both inside and outside of anything and everything to do with that home, watch the disclosure video to see what you should disclose in regards to re...

Day 6 Best Day Ever

Image
- When you got married or when your child was born, was that your best day ever? Well, for me, yes. When my daughter was born, it was one of the happiest days of my life, but one of the best days ever for me is when I swore an oath to defend our country. And since then, after I was honorably discharged, the next best thing was when I got my realtor's license. After serving my country, the next best thing that I wanted to do was to serve my community. To me, helping people is the greatest thing that you can do, so as always, if there's anything ever I can do for you, please let me know. Have a great day.

Day 5 Life Lesson

Image
- Have you ever had a life lesson that completely changed the outcome or the trajectory of where your life was going? For me, one of my biggest life lessons is giving back and how rewarding it can be. For me, I know that there's only so much time here on this and I wanna make the most of it and be able to help as many people as I can, so I'm involved with the American Legion, AMVETS, Disabled Veterans of , and helping different organizations with animals. So I wanna be able to make the a better place and that's my life lesson for today.

Day 4 Why Hire Me?

Image
- Hi, everyone, Dustin Lloyd here with ExP in Kansas City, Missouri. Today, why me? Why should you choose me as your realtor? Well, first, I've been in your . I've gone through the process of buying a and I know how stressful it can be and how time-consuming and how scary and I don't want that for you. I want to be there for you every step of the way. For me, it's always relationships over transactions. And when I bought my first , I did not get what I thought I was getting. And I want to make sure that never happens to any of my clients. So if you ever have any questions, I'm here for you.

Day 3 Local Market Update

Image
Hi everyone, Dustin Lloyd here at EXP, bringing you your local market update. As of right now is still definitely a seller's market with days on market being around 15 days compared to last year where it was three or four more weeks. I'm seeing multiple offers on going over listing price and buyers waiving contingencies. Buyers don't be discouraged with low inventory as there are still out there and finding the right realtor will find that home. We just need to be more aggressive and move a little bit more quicker in putting in the offer. As always if there's anything in the world I can do for you, please let me know. And I will talk to you all soon. Have a great day.
