If you’re thinking about selling your house, it’s important to know what the home inspection is and what inspectors look for.
As supply grows and buyers regain negotiation power, you may find you want to do some select repairs with a good return on investment before listing to get ahead of things a buyer may ask you to fix.
To decide what’s worth tackling, you need expert advice. Reach out to a local real estate agent so you know what to prioritize.

Inventory data shows there just aren’t enough homes available to have a repeat of what happened back in 2008.

Equity is the difference between what your house is worth and what you still owe on your mortgage.
The typical homeowner gained $28,000 over the past year and has a grand total of $305,000 in equity. And there are a lot of great ways you can use that equity.
To find out how much equity you have, connect with a real estate agent who can give you a Professional Equity Assessment Report (PEAR).

Considering selling your house without an agent? You should know there are some serious downsides to handling it on your own.
