It’s the month of shamrocks, leprechauns, and Irish blessings, and while some are worried about getting pinched, you’ve got other things on your mind — like how you’re gonna get your home listed and sold fast. ⁣
⁣
In honor of St. Patty (and so you can kick luck to the curb), I’ve got 5 secrets I can’t wait to spill — secrets that’ll hand you a successful sale, and quite possibly, your very own pot of gold. ⁣
⁣
This week, Secret #1: It’s your kitchen that’ll sell your home.⁣
⁣
While buyers want the right bed and bath count to meet their needs, years of experience tell me it’s your KITCHEN that’ll sell your home. ⁣
⁣
As you get your home ready for the market, every minute (and dollar!) you spend prepping your kitchen to look its best will give you a high ROI. ⁣
⁣
At a minimum, clean, declutter, and clear off those countertops for every showing (save a vase of fresh flower). ⁣
⁣
Wanna do a little more? Update cabinet hardware, replace the faucet and sink, install a backsplash, or splurge on new light fixtures.⁣
⁣
That’s all for now — keep your eyes out for Secret #2 tomorrow!⁣

Happy 4th of July!⁣

Today, play hard, stay safe, and don’t forget to lather on that sunscreen.⁣

BECOME A LANDLORD: GROW RICH IN YOUR SLEEP!⁣
⁣
The idea that you can buy an investment property and grow rich in your sleep sounds awesome, but there are some pros and cons to consider:⁣
⁣
PRO: Monthly income is awesome - If your property is in great shape and the tenant is great: those monthly mailbox checks can feel pretty great.⁣
⁣
CON: Tenants can be a pain - Renters typically won’t care for your home as if it’s their own investments. ⁣
⁣
PRO: Equity - The property can appreciate over time and the money you make from rentals may cover what you pay for the home.⁣
⁣
CON: You need capital - You need a down payment as well as the cash needed to manage the property.⁣
⁣
PRO: Tax benefits - Landlords can write off expenses that have to do with owning and maintaining their property.⁣
⁣
CON: Potential legal problems - the law is on your tenants' side if you slack on your duty tome repairs.⁣
⁣
If this is something you’ve been considering, I’ve helped many investors find properties and I’d love to help you out.
