Home Owners

Vacant Homes present unique challenges for Homeowners and Realtors alike.

• Vacant homes holding costs are great due to repair bills, utility bills, landscape and pool maintenance.
• A vacant home is subject to unmitigated deterioration reducing property value and the opportunity for a good presentation.
• Issues may include: freeze damage, loss of expensive landscaping and the breakdown of home systems such as HVAC and plumbing. These are common problems associated with vacant properties.
• Insurance rates can be as much as 7 times higher for a vacant home, if it is insurable at all.
• Vacant homes lack appeal from the curb and inside as well, they are often lifeless, dusty, dirty, smell stale and dead insects and rodents may be present.
• Potential buyers perceive a vacant home as a distress sale which invites low ball offers.
