The Sharpe Mortgage Team is committed to providing you each week with helpful information on topics such as the local market, home trends, homebuying tips, and more. This week we shared information on outdoor home maintenance, biweekly mortgage payments, and selling a condo. Read more on these topics below.
August Outdoor Home Maintenance
As August comes to a close and summer’s heat starts to fade, this is the perfect time to go outside and inspect your home for any areas that need attention. A well-maintained home not only makes it safer to live but also more valuable when the time comes to sell it. These are a few outdoor home maintenance tasks for your to-do list before autumn rolls around.
Understanding Biweekly Mortgage Payments
When you purchase a home using a lender, your mortgage payments are due once a month by default. Some homeowners, however, choose to make biweekly payments. This is done in an effort to pay off a mortgage faster and pay less interest over the life of the loan. Learn more!
Condos and townhouses typically come with an array of benefits that include amenities, proximity to retail areas, and lower maintenance. Because condos have unique advantages and challenges, sellers should tailor their marketing strategy accordingly. This is what you should consider when putting your condo on the market.
