My vacations were "staycations" where I spent a week ripping up rotted floorboards or tearing out toilets and tubs.

I’m not talking about hanging a picture over a hole in the wall but let’s say small chips in paint on the baseboards might seem like a way bigger deal to a buyer in a vacant home than it would be to a buyer in a staged home.Just our thoughts on the matter and would love to hear other agent’s opinions!

If you need an extra room painted or an extra tax return prepared, you have to pay more.

Either for violating the Alienation clause or non payment of tax insurance or mortgage payment.Now you friend is trying to figure out what to do. its simple he needs to stroke a check and pay the mortgage off. probably does not have enough time to refi.Now scenario 2.. your friend bought a sub 2 from some one that did the sub 2 and they are not paying your friend is now going to lose his/her house even though they have paid the person who bought it sub 2 ripped his payments and did not pay the underlying and is just a theif.which is it ???

at a bare minimum, new paint and carpet/plank everywhere and changing out all the cabinet hardware, electrical covers, fresh light fixtures, etc. will make things look fresh and clean.

Including painting a home a brilliant yet hideous blue, and I'm not going to the authorities to complain or make a rule against it! 

So far we have painted the common areas and the exterior of the building.

Larger holes need mesh and then need to be spackled over and then sanded, primed and painted. 

As I have posted 100x, so many get ripped off out there.
