Home Sellers' Biggest Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

People say the best days to own a boat are the day you buy the boat and the day you sell it. That's not true when it comes to home ownership, unless, maybe, you live on a boat. The best days in home ownership are when you buy a home and all the way through until the day you decide to sell.

Lots of home owners cry when they sell. Before the ink is dry on the listing agreement, eyes often swell with tears, and we're not talking about the listing agent. That's because sellers have developed relationships with their homes. Homes hold treasured memories. It's common for sellers to be very emotional about their home.

Buying a Home With Resale Value -       The House

Homes with a pleasant view of the horizon often sell at a premium above similar homes without the view. However, if a view is important to you, buy it mostly for your own pleasure and not as an investment. Though you may place a considerable dollar value on the view, future buyers may not be so like-minded. It may take you longer to find a buyer when it comes time to resell the house.
