Thinking of Selling Your Home? This Charlotte Townhouse Went From "FOR SALE" to "SOLD" in 12 Hours!

I knew this townhouse would sell quickly, but in 12 hours?  No way!



But that's how it went down.  With a dozen showing requests made on the first day, it didn't take long for a serious buyer to make an offer and for others to express interest.

If you live in the south Charlotte area from Mint Hill to Fort Mill, Dilworth to Waxhaw, or anywhere between, and are planning to sell your home, you need to call me today to get your house from "For Sale" to "Sold."

I have a proprietary method that has resulted in my three most recent listings being sold in under 3 days apiece, though I will admit, this one was the quickest one yet!

Call me directly at 980-298-9385 to schedule an appointment today.

New Listing: Waxhaw Home For Sale in The Oaks on Providence

I am excited to announce my newest listing in Waxhaw, North Carolina, located at 4102 Citation Oaks Court in The Oaks on Providence.

Measuring 2,879 s.f., this four-bedroom home also has a large bonus room on the second floor, a cable-wired screened porch, deck and fenced yard.

Prospective buyers will love the large, covered, rocking-chair front porch before they even open the front door.

This home has a smartly designed, open-concept layout with an open kitchen, breakfast area and den.  

However, the designers at Saussy Burbank insisted on a formal dining room with bay window (covered with a metal roof), and an optional living room / study just off the foyer.

The traditional style house also features beautiful hardwoods throughout the downstairs, from the foyer extending to every room, including the massive master bedroom on the main floor.

4102 Citation Oaks Court is a rare find, and one of the largest homes in The Oaks on Providence.

It is my pleasure to answer any questions about this home via email, phone or in person.

Here is a link to the listing: http://bit.ly/1RSuIXP

Look for the video to be posted soon on my YouTube channel, "Jimmy Grappone, Realtor."

Spring Cleaning Checklist: Preparing Your Home To Sell In A Hot Market

Spring in the Carolinas is my absolute favorite time of the year!  

Temperatures are rising, flowers are in bloom, and there’s just a little bit of pollen in the air.

Spring is when we dust off our golf clubs, take our bikes out of storage, and begin spending a lot more time outside.   This is also the perfect time of year for your home’s annual “Spring Cleaning.”

What are you doing this year to prepare your home for the Spring season?  

If you are prepping your home to sell, here are five activities you should do to make your home more presentable this Spring.

1. Pressure wash / Paint your home.  To sell a house for the best possible price, one of the most important things is having great curb appeal and having a clean exterior with fresh paint will help you maximize curb appeal.  

   
   

2. Clean and Seal Your Windows.  Dirty windows are a deterrent to potential buyers and they raise the question about broken thermal seals.  Clean your windows and repair any broken seals and woods rot around your windows.

   
   

3. Service your HVAC system.  Summer is just around the corner and buyers want confidence they won’t need to call the AC repair man on the first day of summer.  If you have an older unit, get it serviced and pay for a 1-year service warranty agreement to give home buyers peace of mind and confidence in your house.

   
   

4. Hire a lawn service.  If you don’t have a green thumb, you’re probably not going to become an expert landscaper overnight.  Hire a lawn service to make your grass green and to keep it neatly trimmed.  Planting colorful flowers in front of your house can also enhance curb appeal.

   
   

5. Donate to Goodwill.  Or in other words, “de-clutter.”  And that doesn’t mean shoving everything into the garage, because people want to see that, too.  If you find that you have an abundance of personal items that won’t fit neatly into boxes stacked against one garage wall, you may consider a short-term storage facility to place your items before your next move.

Now that your home is in selling condition, all you need to do is consult with a local Realtor to help you correctly position it in the market and promote it to the public and the real estate community to ensure a timely sale for the best price.
