A friend of mine was ready to relocate. One problem, their home needed some necessary repairs and time was of the essence! The main thing to keep in mind when listing your home is that there are some small repairs that are big concerns from a Lender’s stand point. Any peeling paint = No VA Loans Meaning if it is not addressed then you could disqualify a lot of potential buyers! Thankfully I was able to give them a 0% interest loan for $6,100 for necessary repair and an exterior paint job. I made it a top priority to the contractors that I have on speed dial. We were able to get all the repairs done, pictures shot, deep clean set and get it listed in less than 2 weeks. We were able to get 16 offers after just 4 days on the market. And of those 16 offers, 7 of them were VA, including the winning offer that was above asking! These VA offers would not have been possible without the work done beforehand! Here is what they had to say about their experience.
