What's My Candlewood Lake Home Value?

Thinking about selling your home?

Before putting your property on the market, one of the first things that you have to do is to determine the value of your Candlewood Lake home.

Your home’s value is what a ready buyer is willing to pay for your property. It is not based on what you initially paid for the house or how much you’ve spent to improve the property.

There are many factors that can affect your home’s market value.

Location

The neighborhood is one of the biggest influencers of a home’s value. A great home in a poor location can blow a significant amount off a property’s worth.

Is your home in proximity to public transportation, shopping facilities, and quality local school? Homes that are close to shopping locations, and ones with easy access to major highways, tend to sell for more than ones far away from everything.

Features

Another key factor that affects the value of your Candlewood Lake home is the feature it provides. Today, more buyers prefer homes that offer spacious, flowing floor plans and high ceilings.

The age and size of your home as compared to other nearby properties also play a part in determining your home’s worth.

Condition

Buyers will also consider the condition of your home when deciding if they want to purchase it and how much they will pay for it.

If your Candlewood Lake home is in excellent condition, it has a much higher potential for top dollar than one that is obviously in need of basic routine maintenance.

Expect that buyers will check paints, floor covering, walls, ceilings, floors, doors, and windows. They will also be inspecting plumbing, electrical work, repairs, bathrooms, and kitchen.

Market Conditions

When the market is full of similar properties for sale and buyers are few, you can expect to sell your home for less than you would if there were fewer homes for sale and lots of eager potential buyers.

Upgrades

Some home improvements can increase the value of your home. To make the most of your remodeling budget, focus on features that most home buyers really want to see.

Seller Motivation

Seller motivation is another factor that affects the offer price made by the buyer. The most common motivated seller is someone who has already bought his or her next home or is relocating to a new area.

If you have already bought a home in a new area you may be willing to accept a lower price to quickly complete the sale your current house and avoid the prospect of making two mortgage payments at the same time.

Marketing Strategies

The marketing plan of your real estate agent will determine the amount of interest that your property will generate. In addition, your agent’s level of skill and expertise in the negotiating process will also affect the amount of money you’ll be able to get for your home.

It is important to choose the best real estate professional who will market your most valuable asset.

What’s My Candlewood Lake Home Value ?

What’s the Best Way To Find My Home’s Value?

Before you put your Candlewood Lake home up for sale, you need to know how much the market value of your home is.

This is a crucial step in the home selling process, especially if you are planning to move to a different state for career advancement and want to sell your home in the shortest amount of time.

Many homeowners just like you have come across the problem of coming up with a price to list their property for.

How exactly would you know the worth of your Candlewood Lake home?

It’s a bit puzzling and stressful at the same time to think about how much you would sell your home for, right?

Today’s technology has developed a way for homesellers like you to find out their home values in just a few minutes.

You can find this service for free on some of the big real estate sites.

A lot of home sellers use these computer programs because,  aside from the fact that they are free, they are easy to access and use, convenient, and quick!

But, you’ll notice that I didn’t mention accurate and reliable in the above description of these home value estimators. :)

As one of the top real estate experts in Connecticut and having had experience with the homes here, I can honestly say that home value estimators are not good for your Candlewood Lake home!

Here’s why:

• Online home value estimators are not accurate.

While there is a lot to be said about the convenience that they provide, home value estimators still have their drawbacks. One of them is that they are not able to come up with an accurate result of your home’s value.

These computer programs use data gathered from the public, and they also gather up what you tax collector has  assessed for the homes in the area, to come up with a rough estimate of how much your home for sale in Candlewood is worth.

Having data ready to be pulled up at any moment is the reason why they can work so fast...and that’s a good thing!

But imagine if something were to happen to the data, say it wasn’t updated or worse, it wasn’t complete, what would happen then?

If this happens, there is a very big chance that your Candlewood lake home for sale is not going to get the price it deserves!

Remember, home value estimators can give you a price for your home, but that there is still a difference between knowing the price of your home and knowing the worth of your Candlewood Lake home for sale.

• Home value estimators cannot see your home.

If you want to sell your Candlewood Lake home, first you have to take into consideration everything in it and about it.

And when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING.

If you’ve installed a new deck, this has to be considered.

If you’ve made updates on your kitchen area, this also has to be considered.

With this in mind, how do you think online home value estimators can come up with a good price for your Candlewood Lake home for sale if they can’t even see your house?

• Online home value estimators don’t know what your improvements are.

Computers can’t track what recent upgrades you have made to your Candlewood Lake home for sale. Whether kitchen, bathroom, or master bedroom upgrades, they won’t be acknowledged by these home value estimators.

Because of this, home value estimators prove to be highly inaccurate with their disregard for home improvements.

These are some of  the reasons why I believe online estimators can’t provide reliable results.

If you really want to get an accurate appraisal for your Candlewood Lake home for sale, you can get one from me, Deborah Laemmerhirt! You can find out more about what I can do for your home right here!

Are you ready to learn your home’s worth? Call me, Deborah Laemmerhirt, at 203-994-4297 for a free home evaluation.

I believe in providing excellent service to my clients. I can give you a free home valuation and you are under no obligation to list with me.

How to Build a Luxury Kitchen in Your Lakefront Property in Candlewood Lake

Add value to your home with an elegant custom built kitchen!

Considered the heart of the home, kitchens don’t need to be designed beautifully, it’s more important for kitchens to be well-maintained. However, thanks to Pinterest, IKEA brochures, and HGTV – everyone’s started dreaming about designer kitchens in their home.

While people, for centuries, have used nothing more than simple tools and heat from a fire to cook their meals, Americans looking to buy lakefront homes in Candlewood Lake expect luxury kitchens with trendy appliances and smart storage spaces.

Here’s how you can create a luxury kitchen in your lakefront home in Candlewood Lake!

1. Let there be light. Add ambience to the space by using statement lighting fixtures such as recessed, pendant, and under counter lighting. As your real estate agent, I can give you ideas on which stores you can visit that offer reasonable prices on luxury lighting fixtures.
2. Focus on the quality of your equipment. When properly maintained, durable and energy-efficient kitchen appliances can last for years. Invest on custom fixtures that complement the overall aesthetic look you want for your luxury kitchen.
3. Set the tone of with exotic countertops. One of the first things that your guests will notice when they enter the room is the countertop. If you have set aside a budget for renovating your kitchen, do invest in statement pieces that can instantly make your kitchen beautiful – quartz, semi-precious agate stones, marble slabs, and more.
4. Incorporate modern technology into the kitchen’s design. A fully-functional custom built kitchen is more appealing with conveniently located outlet access. Hide those unsightly wires and prevent costly future repairs by making the design of your kitchen smarter.
5. Luxury kitchens come with custom-built cabinets. Get added storage space with gorgeous wood cabinets and shelves. Future homebuyers will appreciate having the added space for storing all their kitchen needs.

How to Prepare Your Candlewood Lake Home for Sale This Summer

How to Prepare Your Candlewood Lake Home for Sale This Summer

 

Summer can be a surprisingly challenging time for home sellers of Candlewood Lake and Lake Lillinonah properties. Buyers could be out in full force. If you want to sell your property, you need to take the appropriate actions to set yourself apart. 

So how can you make your home stand out this summer? Here are a few easy tips to help you find the right buyer for your property quickly.

Freshen up outdoor spaces

During the sweltering months of summer, one of the best selling points is the pool. If you have one, use it to your advantage by ensuring that the water is crystal clear and there is no debris floating on top.  If your home has a deck, patios, or an outdoor kitchen, check that it is well maintained and make any necessary repairs. These fixes can be completed without shelling out too much money and may make a large difference in the perceived value of your home.

Make sure the inside is cool and inviting

While shopping for Candlewood Lake homes, some prospective buyers might spend more time inside your home to avoid the summer heat. Take advantage of this opportunity by making your home extremely comfortable. Keep your air conditioning running because homes can easily become hot and stuffy at this time of the year. Just be careful and set the temperature right; avoid making it too cold. Making it cool enough will convince buyers to stay in your home, look around, and just head back out into the heat later. You may also provide buyers with refreshing drinks. Investing in a cold pitcher of lemonade or bottled water can make your home stand out from the rest of the competition. It can also help buyers form a positive mental picture of spending summer in your home, and perhaps increase the dollar amount of potential offers.

Fix the obvious repairs

If you are keen on getting your home sold this summer, you should start by tackling all the obvious and necessary repairs in your property. You do not want prospective buyers to get turned off by chipping paint, scuffed-up floors, and leaking gutters as they tour your home. Help them focus on your home’s positive qualities by making sure these issues are solved. You will also save time and money by eliminating needless negotiations over minor repair issues.

Depersonalize your home

Before opening your doors to buyers looking for Candlewood Lake real estate, remove personal collectibles, family heirlooms, and school pictures. Keep in mind that when selling a home, a blank slate will appeal more to potential buyers because this helps them visualize themselves in your home. You should also take down items that are polarizing. Get rid of any controversial elements such as religious or political objects.

Bring the light inside

Buyers do not appreciate a dark and drab room. They prefer bright and spacious ones. To create this airy and light feel, remove heavy drapes as they tend to make rooms appear smaller. You may also pull window blinds to the top and tape the strings underneath. You may also consider sing tiebacks to hold and open lightweight drapes.
