Buying Highlands NC Real Estate, Renovate Before Moving in
Lynn Kimball, your key to Highlands NC real estate
Buying Highlands NC real estate often involves changes and choosing to renovate or make repairs before moving in. This is obviously the best time to do so. After all, this is the only time that the home will be empty and unloved in. This is much easier to do when a home is a vacation home, however. A primary residence may require immediate move-in unless arrangements have been made for another place to stay.
Work is easier in an empty house
There is no doubt that work is easier in an empty house. Consider a new kitchen, for example. It is tough to live without a kitchen and getting the renovation completed prior to moving in makes life easier and moving in more of a joy. Another common remodel item is flooring. Many people want new flooring installed and this is much easier if done prior to moving in. The same rings true with painting.
Plan ahead
While a home should be in its expected condition when a buyer closes on the property, it does not mean that some changes are not desired. When changes are planned ahead they can be executed more easily. Your Highlands NC REALTOR can help recommend reputable local contractors and the work can be scheduled prior to closing. This will help expedite the work and get it scheduled as close to closing on the property as possible.
