Listing Preparation

We originally posted the following listing preparation information to social media over a 14 day period during the coronavirus quarantine. While quarantine is over, preparing to list your home will remain. Since we had such an overwhelmingly positive response to these tips, we have included them all in this blog post. Keep in mind, not all items will apply to all homes. Also, they certainly don’t have to be completed in 14 days. If you are not sure which listing preparation items should be completed in your home, get in touch. We are happy to walk you through any steps you should take when listing your home for sale.

Inspect Your Roof

It’s time to inspect your roof, before the weather changes from warm and dry, to wet and stormy. If you are unsure, or uncomfortable getting on your roof, hire a professional.

Inspect Your Roof

What Might a roof inspection include?

Scheduling a professional roof inspection every one or two years will catch potential roof problems before they become bigger. Also, it’s helpful to get an idea of how much life your roof might have left before needing to be replaced.

Typically, the following items will be checked in a roof inspection:

  • General appearance of the roof’s exterior and interior to determine surface deterioration or physical damage.
  • Evidence of ceiling cracks and leaks.
  • Condition of fascia, gutters and drains, skylights, chimneys and vents.
  • Curled, broken or missing shingles or tiles.
  • Areas where water may collect, like roof valleys.
  • Damaged or missing flashing points.
