Autumn Has Arrived, Take Care of your House

This is the time of year we start to see some stormy weather and those beautiful but pesky leaves start falling on your house. It is always a good idea to have leaves removed from your gutters and walkways. They can clog up drainage and cause actual damage to your home. When left on the walkway leaves can be a serious slipping hazard and lead to injuries. 

If you are listing your home in the fall buyers or their agents will notice these things and that can lead to a negative experience when viewing your home. The leaves are gorgeous and leaving then briefly on the lawn or other areas of the yard not walked in can be very pleasing. Definitely do not leave them there once they start to brown out as that is downright ugly and again leads to unnecessary negativity for potential buyers.

In other news: Our local real estate market continues to move forward with steady and modest price growth year over year. Inventory is starting to creep up a bit but we remain entrenched in a moderate sellers market. The median home price in Clark County sits at about $550,000 and is roughly 1.5% to 2% higher than this point last year.
