The prevalence of organic growth on Seattle homes makes deferred maintenance obvious. Most homeowners live at a level of maintenance that does not meet the need to avoid some amount of restorative service when it comes time to sell. You want to remove as much evidence of yourself as possible so prospective buyers can see themselves in your home. To do this, you need to enhance curb appeal. If your soon-to-be-on-the-market home has not been maintained, potential buyers will assume the inside reflects the outside and forego considering your current house as their future home. This blog will educate you on how to get your house market-ready and get the highest price possible when you sell.
Avoid the unexpected when selling your home.
Selling your home can be like a three-ring circus. If you don’t have the animals lined up correctly, it can quickly devolve into a stampede. You and your realtor are lining up contractors, photographers, appraisers, and inspectors to do what they need to do so you can put your home on the market by your desired date. Typically, there is very little slack in the planned timeline, making coordination, collaboration, and quality of service critical. One interruption to the process leads to a domino effect and an inevitable delay in listing your home. For example, if an inexperienced contractor, or one in a rush, damages your property, fixing the damage delays your inspection, or your photographer and, therefore, your MLS listing date. Additionally, even after repair, the damage can deter a potential buyer. To sell for as high a price as possible and meet your desired MLS listing date, you must hire a contractor who will be an asset and an advocate, not a risk and a burden.
What is your best option when selling your home?
Let’s cut to the chase. DAPrDAN is your preferred choice for an exterior cleaning company that will be an asset and an advocate when you sell your home. We are recommended by realtors from Bellevue to Camano Island because we work within a structured timeline and partner with your other vendors. For example, we’ll work with your photographer to clean the windows in time for the MLS listing. Also, realtors recommend us because our services successfully remove the evidence of your years in the home from the exterior. By hiring DAPrDAN, you will either preserve your highest possible selling price or get eight-to-ten times the cost of our service returned when you sell.
How DAPrDAN gets you the highest possible price
A roof wash is the most important.
Your roof is the primary issue when you sell your home. For many homeowners, it’s “out of sight, out of mind,” leading to a restorative service when they choose to sell. Because every part of your home is under the roof, a damaged roof leads to, or suggests, a risk to the rest of the house, which is why home insurance underwriters won’t insure a home with moss on the roof. Moss is more than an aesthetic issue. If unaddressed, it can lead to severe damage and even require a roof replacement. DAPrDAN will restore your roof to like-new, satisfying buyers, inspectors, and underwriters. We provide a report upon completion to represent the service provided and any recommendations we suggest based on our collective expertise. Also, our Premium service comes with a 100% remediation guarantee. If a roof inspector has any questions or concerns after DAPrDAN is done, give them our number (425) 659-3009, and we’ll represent the condition of the roof on your behalf.
Also, clean your siding, gutters, windows, and driveway.
Selling your home for the highest possible price requires more than making your roof like-new. You must bring all areas of your property to as pristine a state as possible. Most sellers hire us to clean their roofs, siding, gutters, and windows. However, which services you require will depend upon what you choose to do yourself and the quality guarantee you want. DAPrDAN will soft wash your house from top to bottom in a single day to increase your curb appeal to the highest level possible. Our gentle method will restore your siding and avoid any flaking paint or other damage. Additionally, we’ll pressure wash your driveway to remove stains.
What you didn’t know we offer
In addition to contacting us to perform services you know you need, you can contact us at (425) 659-3009 to help you with what you may not know. We’ll understand and address your priorities when you call before digging into other concerns you may not be aware of. For example, we know what an inspector will look for and can help you plan for that. In short, we’ll prepare you to be proactive and not reactive. We can also recommend trusted contractors for services we don’t provide, ensuring that your every variable is covered to get the highest selling price possible.
Given the current state of the economy, it’s likely that next year’s real estate market will be tough for sellers. There will likely be a lot of “attention competition,” meaning it’s critical to put your best foot forward to prospective buyers. DAPrDAN is excited to help you do so.
To sell your home for the highest possible price, contact DAPrDAN today. You can also go directly to our website and get an instant quote for many services that will give your home the “pop” of attractive curb appeal… AND if you select one of our Premium-level service bundles, you’ll save up to 15% off everything.
