Home selling tips for the San Juan Islands. The San Juan Islands are a beautiful and desirable place to live, and that makes them a competitive market for home sellers. If you’re thinking about selling your home in the San Juans, there are a few things you can do to make sure it stands out from the competition. One of the most important things you can do is hire an experienced real estate agent and get your home in tip-top shape. This means making any necessary repairs, decluttering, and staging your home to show its best features. When selling your home, You should also get a home inspection to identify any potential problems that buyers may be concerned about.
If your home has a well, you’ll need to get a well quantity and water quality report. This will show potential buyers that your water is safe to drink and that there’s enough of it to meet their needs.
If your home has a septic system, you’ll need to have it inspected by a licensed professional. This will ensure that it’s in good working order and that it’s not going to cause any problems for the next owners.
