Need to Sell My House Fast

I live in Madison, Wisconsin, so “Zone 4″.

I’m hoping to sell my house this year, and while I’m making decisions to improve curb appeal and the general appearance of the landscaping of the lot, I’m especially curious in plants that will show well in their first year. I’ll make full use of the plants I already have, and have thoroughly researched what to put in the shaded area of my yard, but I’m not sure what to put in the sunny to part-sun areas.

Suggestions? Thanks!

Stop repossession

I asked this a few months ago and the issue has resurfaced.

In April we put our house up for sale b/c we were relocating for jobs out of state. While we were getting the house ready, our window started to leak. We DISCLOSED this information on the sale / disclosure form and also noted we were “talking to a contractor”. A friend of our neighbor was a contractor, came out, looked, couldn’t find anything wrong with it – pulled off the siding and found something that needed to be caulked. He caulked it and we had no more leak. This was mid April. It rained and the window didn’t leak again. We sold the house – they paid for a home inspector to come look at it – the house passed inspection – they ASKED for nothing – no guantee, no warranty not even proof it was fixed. We put off settlement to the end of may due to logistics assoc’d with our move and all the rain we had it never leaked again.

Fast fwd to August – rements of a tropical storm came thru with heavy rains and
the window leaked – this was AUGUST – THREE months after we moved out. Now mind you – it rained in Philadelphia prior to august. ANyway – the homeowners are coming after us to pay for the window to be fixed.

What are our rights – we disclosed the info and had it fixed to our knowlegde. How are we to know it’s not a new leak? Also – it is now October 30th and they haven’t had it fixed and it continues to leak and the price has tripled since they first contacted us. How are we to know that all the damage now is not from the window being unfixed all this time?

We are going to have to get a lawyer, but before we spend big bucks, i am curious to know if we have a case here? I mean – shouldn’t they be going after their inspector for not catching it – especially when they knew there was once a leak? I mean what’s next? Are they going to sue us if a window breaks?

Sorry if this runs on!
Thanks for taking the time to answer me. I just feel bad – guilty, you know? We did offer them 500 bucks as a show of good faith back when all this started and the repairs were 600 bucks but they refused it. They bought the house for their 20 year old daughter so they wouldn’t have to pay for her dorm for college – so of course i assume they have a lawyer on retainer. I got a very threatening email from the lady – but the house is in my fiance’s name – mine wasn’t on a single thing. Ugh – it’s so frustrating. But thank you all for taking the time to answer me.

house sale and rent back

We need to sell our house fast and for a good price, and we can’t afford a realtor. Even for sale by owner.com is too expensive. Any other ideas? We are in Forest Grove, Oregon, if what you recommend is area specific.

sell my house and rent it back

I’m a real estate agent and I would like to hear from home buyers and sellers. I have two questions, and I would like only one answer for each question, although you may elaborate as much as you want on that one answer!

1. As a home buyer, what is the single most important service
you want/need from your agent?

2. As a home buyer, what is the single most important quality
you want/need your agent to have?

3. As a home seller, what is the single most important service
you want/need from your agent?

4. As a home seller, what is the single most important quality
you want/need your agent to have?

Please don’t state the obvious, like “I want my agent to find me the right home” or “I want my agent to sell my house fast.”

What I really want to know is what service and quality make you comfortable that the agent will find the right home for you and sell your home fast.

Thanks for your time!

practical solutions to stop UK repossessions

What should I look for in a realtor?

How much commission does a realtor normally charge?
What is too much?
If they charge less than normal, does that mean that the quality of work that they do is not good?

What minor work can I do with the house to help sell it faster?
i understand this is not the time to sell right now but I got a very generous offer to move to a house that is twice as big but paying the same amount.

i am willing to do it if I can just break even.
