How can you Update your Home to Get Top Dollar without any Upfront Cost?

If you are thinking about selling your home, you have probably started looking at homes that are already for sale.  If you have, then you probably noticed that the updated homes are selling much quicker and for a better price.  You realize it makes a lot of sense to update your home before selling, but you don’t have the money to do so.  How can you Update your Home to Get Top Dollar without any Upfront Cost?  Let me tell you.

At Coldwell Banker, we have access to a program called Realvitalize.  RealVitalize pays for your updates without any fees or upcharges or interest charges.  You pay them back out of your proceeds when your house sells.

Did you know that the longer a house sits on the market, typically the less the house sells for.  A recent survey conducted by the Harris Poll with US homeowners reports that the top features buyers are looking for are:  Kitchen upgrades, bathroom upgrades, updated HVAC, plumbing or electrical, new appliances and updated interior/exterior paint.

So how does it all work?

  1. Together with your agent, rank the which home improvements will boost buyer appeal and home value.
  2. Determine your maximum project budget.
  3. Your Angi Project Consultant sources service professionals to scope work, provide estimates and schedule work.
  4. Work gets completed on time and on budget.  Angi guarantees your satisfaction with work quality.
  5. When your home closes, funds will be taken from the settlement proceeds.

Are you obligated after you request estimates?

You will receive detailed estimates for each improvement.  You can decide to proceed with all, none or whichever ones you choose.

Who does the work?

The work is completed by licensed service providers who are Angi’s top-rated.

Does it really work?

It does!  One example is a Florida condo that was listed for sale for over 100 days with an asking price of $385,000.  The owners used RealVitalize for flooring, painting and staging.  They spent $14K.  The home sold in 7 days for $425,000.  I have personally assisted homeowners with the program.  It was very smooth and successful!
