Another Highly Satisfied Real Estate Seller for The Poltrock Team of Murphy, NC REMAX!

Posted by I Love Murphy on

I am pleased to announce the successful home sale on behalf of one of my clients, John Clarke, who enlisted my services to sell his home here in Murphy, NC.  Here’s what John had to say about working with The POLTROCK TEAM:

After speaking with John about my real estate needs, I knew that he was a good choice for effectively selling my home.  John and his team were both consistent and persistent in keeping things moving throughout the selling process, contract and closing.  I soon realized that John would take care of any problems that came up and resolved them with no issues.

Since I was out of State during the transaction, the most helpful aspect of working with The Poltrock Team was knowing that John would take care of all the details and managing each aspect of the sale professionally.

I would have absolutely no reservation in working with The Poltrock Team again in the future or recommending them to others.

The Importance of a Home Inspection in Murphy NC Real Estate

Posted by I Love Murphy on

When you’re getting a home inspection on a home you’re buying in Murphy, NC, it simply makes “good sense.” In fact, I commonly equate it to buying a Carfax Report when you’re purchasing a car – you hope you’re throwing your money away, but if there’s something that pops up, you’ll be glad you did it.

Home inspectors commonly go through a home and check a variety of items. A few of the items they check on while going through your future home can be: appliances, electrical outlets, light fixtures, heating and air conditioning systems, possibly the water, radon, commodes, water heater, and much more.

Base cost for most home inspections is $350 and can go up from there based on the size of the home and a few a la carte tests that can be done. Once the inspection is completed, you get a thick report with many pictures showing issues, concerns, and maintenance items. This report allows you to request repairs, if needed, on the home you’re buying.

One important thing for real estate buyers and sellers to remember is that home inspectors almost always find something that needs repair. In fact, if you think about it, if someone paid you $350 to check out a house, you would feel a bit obligated to find something. If there’s small nit-picky items on the inspection, in many cases you don’t need to worry about it. The key is you’re looking for major issues of concern that need to be repaired.

Need a home inspector? Go to our Murphy NC “Gotta Guy” List for Recommended Contractors today! You can find several choices on folks who do good work. The next time you’re buying a home, be certain to get a home inspection – even if your house is brand-spankin’ new. Sometimes, those check out worse than resales because sub contractors forgot to do something, something was overlooked, or a shortcut was taken.

Enjoy your new home!
