THE PERFECT SITUATION
Your buyer client has just had a home inspection completed,... but how do you place a value on the noted defects? Clear 2 Close Contracting will create a budget for negotiations. These estimates can be turned around quickly and submitted with your repair request list to ensure optimal negotiating power for your buyers. This forces the seller to come up with contractors that can complete the repairs or negotiate based on your figures. The perfect situation for your buyer.
Prelisting Preparation for Home Owners
STAY IN CONTROL
Do you know everything about your house? Don't worry, most homeowners do not. But that is okay. Clear 2 Close Contracting has developed a unique process that involves a prelisting evaluation to identify issues that may negatively effect the sale of your home, estimates for repairs needed and completion of these repairs prior to listing your home to ensure top dollar for your upcoming sale. Not getting your home evaluated prior to listing is the largest single mistake home owners make when selling their home because unknown issues allow the buyer to have power over negotiations once the issues are found by their inspector. Clear 2 Close Contracting can assist you and your agent in maintaining monetary control over the sale of your home.

My family is often reminded of the projects I have been involved in as we pass by headed to other destinations.
