A common French real estate seller’s mistake is as follows:
Marketing your property without having fixed minor defects
Why?
Once the seller has the diagnostics he can tell what repairs need to be done and then he or she can fix minor defects that can help enhance the value of the property in the eyes of the buyer. This could be as simple as some uncovered wiring discovered in the electrical report.
If there are major defects the seller is wise to get professional written estimates so that they can share these with the buyer. This helps reduce the likelihood the buyer will overestimate the cost of repairs and make a low offer.
