As the chill of winter melts away, spring ushers in a perfect opportunity for homeowners to conduct essential maintenance. Here’s a comprehensive guide to spring home maintenance from Double H Inspections to keep your home in peak condition.Exterior Maintenance Inspect the Roof: Look for missing, loose, or damaged shingles that may have been impacted by winter weather. Early repairs can prevent costly water damage. If you can’t safely get on your roof, call a home inspector or roofing contractor to do the inspection.

We can all learn from Christopher blog that he shared last week with us. This week saw a spike in mortgage rates, which should worry buyers in the midst of the competitive spring real estate market. According to Freddie Mac, the average rate on a 30-year fixed home loan increased from 6.82% to 6.88% during the week that ended on April 11. “Mortgage rates have been drifting higher for most of the year due to sustained inflation and the reevaluation of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy path,” Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s chief economist, said in a statement. For the week ending April 6, home sellers were pushing ahead despite the ongoing rocky path of mortgage rates. According to Realtor.com® economist Jiaya Xu's most recent analysis, "many sellers are actively listing their homes this s... 04/23/2024

I have been doing renovation loan consulting for 30 years now and it baffles me how many Realtors don't have a clue. We made an offer on a home and they want to know how you are going to finance it... none of their business, but they all seem to ask. I told them we'll be putting $100,000 down and using VA for the balance. We wait to hear they accepted the offer so we can get our home inspection and pest inspection, roof inspections, ordered. This house is on the East Coast and I'm on the West Coast moving their in 30 days or so. I'd like to get the repairs started before I get there. LOLThe seller's agent tells us that the home needs work and she is sure it can't go VA. Well, that is BS, it can go VA and they do have a renovation loan product, but regardless we can change it to a 203k F... 04/23/2024

Crucial advice! Getting pre-approved offers a competitive edge in the homebuying process. This blog likely explains the benefits of pre-approval and why it's a recommended step for serious buyers. Have a super fantastic week!Joe Jackson, Realtor-KWCP Getting pre-approved instead of just pre-qualified is highly recommended for buyers because it shows sellers that you are a serious and qualified buyer. Pre-approval involves a more in-depth financial review, including verification of income, assets, and credit history. This gives you a more accurate idea of how much you can afford to spend on a property and strengthens your offer when competing with other offers that are just pre-qualified buyers. This gives you a stronger position in the homebuying process and a clear idea of how much can... 04/23/2024
