This is a question I get all the time. And I deal with each one differently because each house is unique and special, like your home.

How are we able to aim for an accurate value of your home?

You spent time and invested in your home so it is fair to ask this question. Let’s consider these things before we put a price on your Pleasanton home for sale. How is your home structure?

Our tendency is to overlook some things when we see that they are already outdated or when they are no longer appealing.

When certain things do not utilize their usage, we may start disregarding them. We may even feel they have depreciated or lost their value.

The good news is, some people may think otherwise and will still find these things interesting or important.

The good thing about renovating is we are able to restore something old to a great state again.

This is where getting the service of an experienced REALTORⓇ, like me Rhonda Fee, is beneficial. I have the knowledge, skills and the eye to know the accurate worth of your home.

It is similar to sending our kids to school. We know we have the ability to teach them but we allow them to be taught by school teachers because we know these educators spent years in school to study their profession.

It is important to know that teachers still need to work hand in hand with parents. Same thing when you buy or sell your home. We still need to work together with you so we can get the result that you want.

Rest assured that having me means you’re being led in the right direction. These are some of the things you need to know from a real estate expert and personal home value estimator:

Does your home need remodeling?

If it does, then that’s something you need to consider. Home remodels may cost you $20,000 to as much as $40,000 depending on how many square feet your home is.

The exterior of your home gives buyers the first impression on how they will view the interior.  That is why you need to make the front entrance clean and inviting. Your door may be worn or faded and need to be repainted.  Trim bushes and improve items that show signs of wear.

What do you need to repair?

You need to give your home the proper grooming from lawn, landscaping, the planted trees that complement your home your carpets. Everything that we can see.

Clean the carpeting or replace it if needed. Repair sticking windows and doors, damaged cabinet drawers, loose knobs, and defective light switches. Check and repair clogged bathtubs and showers.  Then take note if you upgraded your kitchen.

Next we will talk about comparable market prices. I can help you maximize your home’s value by preparing it before the open house.

One thing that we need to avoid i having your house on the market long. We need to give it a speedy sale. Do not worry, I will be with you on this meaningful milestone of your life.
