Sellers: These Upgraded Appliances Bring Better ROI
Modern appliances offer many features and options that can enhance your comfort and reduce your monthly utility bills. While appliances require a significant investment, many will pay for themselves in terms of comfort and resale value. When you're considering which appliances to add to your home, the following are some that our REALTORS® recommend because they will give you the biggest bang for your buck.
The Best Investments
- Refrigerators
French doors and built-in water/ice dispensers will woo prospective buyers who step into your kitchen. These aren't just trendy options within Mansfield and Ashland homes for sale; they are necessities for modern comfort. You will want to choose a refrigerator that is easy to organize and features plenty of storage space. And, while pricier, high-efficiency refrigerators that offer WiFi connectivity are the perfect addition to the 21st century Smart Home. These will not only reduce your monthly utility bills, but they will also make it easier to shop, store, and prevent spoilage of your groceries.

Why 2020 Is the Year for a Holiday Home Sale
At Haring Realty, our REALTORS® are looking forward to spending time with friends and family this holiday season. But many sellers are motivated to move fast, and Mansfield homes for sale shouldn't wait – we're on the case all through Thanksgiving and beyond.
Some sellers feel intimidated at the thought of staying on the market over the holidays. They wonder if their home will sell and if showings will put a dent in their holiday plans. But if you're intent on selling as soon as you can, don't shy away from sticking to your plan!
With the right real estate agent at your side, a holiday sale can be worth it!
Every seller has their own goals, and those goals usually include a fast, lucrative sale. Ideally, you don't want your home to be on the market longer than 60 days, and 30 is even better. Luckily, today's unique housing market situation makes it much easier than ever to sell over the holidays.

Seller Etiquette: How Long Should You Mull Over an Offer?
Mansfield homes for sale have gotten plenty of attention in recent weeks. Sellers are moving forward with their plans. And, drawn by historic low interest rates, buyers are bidding on homes that excite them. Our REALTORS® know now is a great time to be a seller! To get the best value for your home, it's important not to forget the buyer-seller relationship is a two-way street. Buyers should bring serious offers to the table – and sellers should give them due consideration.
It's all about etiquette. And that's especially true in the negotiation phase! Seller etiquette might not seem that important at first, but it really makes a difference. Sellers often feel better when they find a buyer they trust, especially if they're selling property that's been in the family for a long time. Buyers, in turn, are more likely to help you out if you have a strong rapport.
Let's look at common points of negotiation etiquette every seller should know.

Why FSBO Isn't All It's Cracked Up to Be
It's not uncommon for a seller's thoughts to wander toward the idea of selling their home by themself. At first glance, it seems like an expedient way to sell their home and save money in the process. However, our REALTORS® caution that the process isn't as easy as it may seem, and even the most seasoned seller can make costly mistakes that an agent would avoid.

Time is Money
Selling a home requires a significant investment of time. You need to prepare marketing materials, schedule appraisals, and prepare the house before you even list it. Once the home is on the market, you'll spend hours each day answering phone calls, responding to emails, and preparing to host an open house. It's akin to taking on a second job, which can affect job performance and the ability to connect and close the deal with prospective buyers.
