Fun Things Going On - Hurricane Ian

Real Estate

 

Are you ready for Hurricane Ian?  I just finished taking in my real estate signs.  They can take flight in heavy wind.  John and James have driven down to get Mom.  Originally they were going to ride out the storm with her down there, but the storm seems to be tracking south of Tampa, so they are on the road to come home with Mom.  Prayers appreciated.

It will only be a tropical storm by the time it gets up here to Georgia.  The ground is already to wet from all the rain we've had.  There could be a lot of trees down.  Need to get some old milk jugs full of water in the freezer to put in the frig in case the power goes out.  Longest we've ever been out was 24 hours after Irma.  Got a new roof out of Irma.  Hoping to only have some branches to pick up after this one.

I have the phones Fri-Sat-Sun if you need real estate assistance.

Here is what is suppose to be going on:

New or Previously Owned?

What kind of home are you looking to buy? New construction or previously owned? There are advantages to each approach.

Previously owned pros

  • You may not have the option to purchase or build a new construction home in your desired neighborhood. If location is a top priority, buying a resale home may be your only choice.

  • Established neighborhoods sometimes provide a stronger community base than newer developments.

  • Mature landscaping, including larger trees are typically not available with new construction homes.

  • Most home owners sell a property with all necessary appliances included, so you know the home is move-in, live-in ready.

New construction pros

  • Modern floor plans typically include popular room types and layouts that might not be available in older homes.

  • When you buy a new home, you often have the opportunity to choose the appliances you want and pick custom details like flooring options, window treatment, paint colors, etc. (Though these choices/upgrades usually come with additional cost.)

  • New homes are often constructed with energy-efficient materials and system including insulation, windows and heating/cooling systems.

  • Home builders often offer added protection to homebuyers by offering a home warranty.

If you would like additional information on which option might be your best choice or are ready to look at homes, please call or email me. I would be happy to help you!
