When I decided to sell my condo I realized that the roof was older than it should be.
Suddenly there were concerns with insurance plus I had to buy a new roof for the dwelling I was waiting for.
That seemed dumb to me. I am leaving the house, never to return. However, I need to buy a new roof or nobody would take it. I wasn’t keen on that idea at all. My new dwelling had a bunch of repairs I needed to do. Wouldn’t you know it? The roof was a project I was anticipating on the new house. I wasn’t going to buy two roofs. The real estate agent I was working with was so firm about it that I ended up severing contact. I didn’t want to spend money on real estate agent fees or closing costs anyway. I started looking around plus finding people that say they buy homes for currency. The currency condo client market was way better. These people were more upfront with what they are going to provide you. A major aspect to the Portland currency condo customers is that they don’t require any repairs or add ons. I didn’t need to do anything to the roof. The guy was willing to add a new roof plus deal with insurance. I was so relieved to have that headache taken care of. I am sure I could have gotten more currency at the end of the day if I paid for a cheap roof, got insurance, and then listed it. My time is worth a lot to me though. I also can’t put a price on my sanity. I didn’t want to mess around with it.
