We are currently in the best selling season of the year. Prices in some areas of Florida, but not all, are going down slightly. In addition, the longer a home sits vacant, the more maintenance and repairs it will need. I've been in real estate for 30 years and am licensed in Florida. I would be glad to answer any additional questions you may have, and help you sell the home when you decide to do so. Feel free to call any time, Pete Bauch, Realtor 770.617.7720
Property taxes are levied on virtually all types of properties in the US. This includes single and multi family homes, commercial properties, and condos, townhomes, villas, etc. I've been in real estate for 30 years and do business in Florida. I would be happy to answer any other questions. Fell free to call at any time. Pete Bauch, Realtor 77.617.7720
Curb appeal can account for 7% of a homes sales value- on a $600,000 home that's $42,000! I've written an eBook addressing that and other design appeal issues "Architectural Soul & Curb Appeal Blueprint". Feel free to contact me for a free copy. Pete Bauch, Realtor 770.617.7720
If you have accepted the Buyers offer, and the inspection, mortgage contingency, and the due diligence period have all expired, you should be ready to move forward with the closing. Are any other contingencies still not resolved? Most GA real estate contracts with Listing Agents can be cancelled, but if you've accepted the offer and all contingencies have been met, your listing agent may be entitled to the commissions. You should talk with a GA Closing Attorney to understand your rights in your specific situation. Pete
It's not crazy, just be sure that you are working with an experienced and trustworthy Realtor in GA, or the state in which you're buying a home. As stated here before, a reputable Realtor will do a comprehensive video walk-through with you, give you their unbiased opinion as to what they see in the home, etc. In addition, be SURE to have a thorough inspection done by a licensed Inspection Company, and that you have a due diligence period long enough to complete the inspection. Also be sure you have an appropriate mortgage and appraisal contingency period. Happy to help if you'd like to call me, Pete Bauch, Realtor 770.617.7720
