What's My Lake Lillinonah Home Value?

When it comes to selling a house, sellers like yourself have one burning question: What is my home value?


Another million dollar question is how to increase the worth of your house without breaking your budget?

Whether you’ve already made up your mind or still planning to sell your home, the subject of pricing your property accurately can seem like a very difficult process. There is a lot of information to sift through and you might feel a little confused.

With some careful investigation, you can come up with a good estimate of your property in Lake Lillinonah market value — or the price your house is likely to bring, without too much hassle.

Visit the great outdoor enjoyment destinations here in Lake Lillinonah.


What’s the first thing to do to find out what’s my home worth?


The immediate thing most sellers do to find out their value is go online since it’s the fastest and easiest step.

But any estimate of home value that you see online whether this is an article written by someone or software asking you to key in your home features is just that – an estimate.

The only thing that makes a difference is when an expert sees and inspects your and helps you make sure that your home is ready to be put up for sale.

These experts are called REALTORSⓇ, like myself. I have plenty of experience in this area. I know recent sales and give you a comparative market analysis.

This covers points including comparable sales of other properties in your area and can help you with estimation.

If you call me today, Deborah Laemmerhirt, at 203-994-4297, I can immediately check out your home and help you decide what needs to be done to increase your chances of getting the amount you have in mind.

What are the steps that you can do to add value to your home in Lake Lillinonah?

Here are a two examples:

  • Weakening roofs, termite invasion or outdated electrical systems, you can't fix it if you don't know it's broken. Hire an inspector to check out the areas that you don't normally see. They may discover unseen problems that could negatively impact your home's value.

  • Clean up your lawn. Overgrown lawns and outsized bushes will cause your home to stand out but not in a good way. The good news is that refining your jungle is an easy fix. Your curb appeal will go from messy to impressive without killing your budget.

Boat ramps, kayaking, canoeing, wildlife viewing, hiking trails, and picnic areas await you on the serene,45 mile shoreline of Lake Lillinonah.


What’s the number one upgrade with the greatest return?

The answer is the same across the board: the kitchen! It’s always the kitchen!


  • Make small changes like switching out your door handles .
  • Change the paint. It sounds simple but it always works. You need to know the latest trends when it comes to which color best suits your home style. Brighten up the color, no buyer wants to enter house and find a dark or depressive kitchen!
  • Make sure your electric plug covers match the wall color.
  • Switch to stainless steel, the sleek look of steel is always a hot ticket items for buyers.
  • Make your kitchen look like a chef lives there! Hanging pot racks look great as long as your pots look shiny and clean.
  • Add a kitchen island for more storage.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of all the things that can be done to increase the value of your Lake Lillinonah house.

What's My Lake Zoar Home Value?

The value of your property:  



Most of us do not realize the importance of knowing the value of our homes until we need it. You may want to sell your home or simply know how much equity you have. I’m glad you’ve come to the right place.


It’s our duty to protect one of our biggest investments, especially if your home is located in Lake Zoar, a beautiful location with rich history.  


If you are seeing yourself selling your home in the calculable future, one of the first steps that you can do is to contact a knowledgeable REALTORⓇ in your area, like myself, to help you find out about proper timing and the best estimates.


You may visit my website https://homesinconnecticutforsale.com/ to see how other sellers prepare their homes for showing.   


Experience fishing and share a sumptuous meal in the comfort of your new home on Lake Zoar.


How will you know if you’re accurately pricing your Lake Zoar home?



No one can truly estimate your house unless an expert inspects it. When I work for you, I’ll make sure you get qualified buyers who have already done comparable property sales to know which is the best deal and which is overpriced.


We’ll make it a point that they fall in love when they see your home.


One thing that is most overlooked in determining home value is where we get our information from:



  1. There are a myriad of softwares nowadays that offer an analysis of your property. They ask for your current and after repair value. There are other softwares that include your stress market value.
  2. Perhaps, they will ask you to enter your property’s characteristics. How many garages do you have, how old is your home, how huge is your lot, what kind of landscaping do you have, has your roof been repainted in the last two years, etc.?
  3. I’m not saying these are not helpful but these softwares can only do so much. You need an actual, experienced real estate agent in Lake Zoar area who knows exactly what’s going on in the real estate marketplace to give you an accurate value.

Wake up to the sound of peace and contentment when you choose one of the homes on Lake Zoar.


Here’s what I bring to the table:



  1. An assurance that there will be a constant research on your home, market and estate values so your Lake Zoar home is priced effectively from day one. I will also make sure the public knows your home is for sale by using innovative marketing techniques to attract potential buyers.
  2. The home selling and buying process will be explained to you thoroughly.
  3. I will negotiate on your behalf and will track the closing process. Starting and ending with a bang is something I keep in mind.
  4. Having lived in Connecticut for 35 years, I have proven marketing techniques that will leave nothing to chance.

A picturesque place on Lake Zoar where you no longer desire to go anywhere else. It’s so heavenly!



These are just few of the things I can offer. If you call 203-994-4297, we can start discussing your home and how you want it to be sold.



If you noticed, I have only focused on the values of getting the right REALTORⓇ because it all starts there. It is an important decision because we are talking about one of the valuable assets of your life.


I have been in the business for 35 years that is why I know what works best for each seller, or buyer for that matter.  I have my own expert service and support called Your Home Group. You will be working with real estate masters.


Call me today, Deborah Laemmerhirt, let me show you what I can do for you!

How to Sell Your Lake Zoar Home If You Have Pets



How to Sell Your Lake Zoar Home If You Have Pets

 

Selling a Lake Zoar real estate is a complex process, but it can become even more challenging when you have pets in your home. Surprisingly, owning a pet can reduce your home’s value. That is because your furry friends can cause serious damage to your property.  So what should you do if you have pets at home?  Here are some easy tips on how to sell your home with this concern in mind:
Make your Lake Zoar waterfront home selling process smooth even if you own a pet with these 5 helpful tips!
Temporarily relocate
It will be easier to show your home to buyers of Lake Zoar homes for sale if your pets are not present when they arrive.  If you have a friend or a family member that you are comfortable leaving your animal with, it will give you the chance to eliminate all the signs of having a pet in the house. Relocating your pets can also help prevent them from causing further issues. Keep in mind that some buyers consider pets a huge turn-off when looking at potential homes they may want to own.

Fix any damage
Make sure to spend time and repair damage caused by your pets before showing your home to buyers looking for Lake Zoar waterfront homes.  Remember that any form of damage is a turn-off. While you love your pets, they will inevitably destroy something including carpets, furniture, hardwood flooring, walls, doors, turf in your yard and your fence. Some of the repairs may be inexpensive while others may require a great deal of money. Either way, the value you will get for your house will be well worth paying for the repairs.

Take away signs of having pets
You want buyers to envision themselves as the next owner of the home. However, having pet stuff around your home may distract them. Before you open the doors of your home to potential buyers, put away all pet toys, bedding, litter boxes and food – preferably at another location besides your home. You may also want to remove all photos where your pet is present as well. Remember that removing extra pet clutter is an important part of preparing your home for sale.

Clean the rugs
As much as you want, you cannot control pet accidents. Sometimes, they even happen right before a scheduled showing. What should you do then? The answer is in your kitchen. Baking soda does wonders for neutralizing odors. Sprinkle a thin layer over carpets and let it set overnight. Vacuum the next day for a fresh scent.

Have your home checked for fleas
While you may believe that your pets are clean and do not carry any fleas, it is still better to have your home checked for fleas. There are many ways to know if there are fleas in your home. If you suspect that you have some, you should have a professional inspect further. Remember that fleas and pest can turn off buyers. Make sure to get rid of them before any potential buyer walks through your home.

Having pets is always an issue when selling a home, but with these tips you can snatch a quick sale for the best price.
