FAQ
WE READ ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT YOU DO NOT PUT A KEY LOCKBOX ON YOUR CLIENT’S DOOR TO ALLOW BUYERS TO VIEW YOUR SELLERS’ HOME AT THEIR CONVENIENCE, THAT YOU NEED TO BE PRESENT FOR EVERY SHOWING, IS THIS ACTUALLY CORRECT?
WE PURCHASED A HOME EARLY THIS YEAR AND FOUND OUT AFTER THE FACT THAT WE CANNOT BUILD A DOCK ON OUR LAKEFRONT PROPERTY. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? ALSO, THE WATER LEVEL KEEPS DROPPING. WE WERE RECENTLY TOLD THAT IT WILL KEEP DROPPING AND MOST OF OUR LAKEFRONT WILL BE DRY. COMING FROM FLORIDA WE ARE AWARE OF SEA LEVELS RISING BUT WERE NOT AWARE OF LAKE LEVELS DROPPING. WHY?
WE’VE READ YOUR COLUMN IN THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS ABOUT BEDROOMS AND SEPTIC TANKS. WE ARE GETTING READY TO LIST OUR HOME AFTER WE TIDY UP A FEW THINGS (IN FACT WE WILL BE CALLING YOU) AND HAVE SEVERAL ROOMS IN OUR HOME THAT CAN BE CONSIDERED BEDROOMS. PUTTING ASIDE THE SEPTIC REQUIREMENT FOR LISTING BEDROOMS, WHAT CONSTITUTES A BEDROOM? WE’VE HEARD THAT A BEDROOM MUST HAVE CLOSETS. IS THIS CORRECT?
PART II ANSWER: WE HAVE 4 BEDROOMS AND 3 BATHROOMS, BUT WE WERE TOLD THAT BECAUSE OUR SEPTIC SYSTEM IS ONLY APPROVED FOR 3 BEDROOMS, WE CAN’T LIST OUR HOME FOR SALE AS A 4 BEDROOM? AND WHY ARE SEPTIC PERMITS BASED ON BEDROOMS AND NOT BATHROOMS?

OUR REAL ESTATE AGENT IS MAKING A BIG DEAL ABOUT WHAT THE SQUARE FOOTAGE OF OUR HOUSE IS. IS THIS REALLY IMPORTANT?

WE SOLD OUR HOME WITHOUT HIRING A REAL ESTATE AGENT. THE BUYERS ARE GETTING A LOAN, AND THEIR BANK HAS APPRAISED THE HOME VALUE AT LESS THAN WHAT THE BUYERS AGREED TO PAY US FOR IT. WHAT ARE OUR OPTIONS?
SHOULD WE FIRST SELL OUR CURRENT HOME BEFORE PURCHASING OUR NEW ONE OR SHOULD WE BUY THE NEW HOME FIRST AND THEN SELL OURS?
DO YOU ONLY WORK WITH LAKE HOMES?
DO YOU ALSO REPRESENT BUYERS?
