  1. Look for a long term solution

Many sellers make the mistake of applying cosmetic solutions to repair foundation cracks. They do this to save money and sell their homes quicker. However, buyers are becoming wise to these tactics. Many buyers invest in home inspection. When the problems with the foundation are revealed, you will have to reduce your price or risk losing potential buyers.

It is best to invest in a long-term solution for crack repair. Buyers will appreciate the effort you made to repair the foundation. In addition, with a long-term solution in place, you can get a better price for your home.

  1. Share inspection reports with buyers

It is important to be as transparent as possible with prospective buyers. Don’t try to hide the fact that you had your foundation repaired. Share the information including what you did to repair the foundation and how much it cost.

Buyers appreciate honesty. Transparency will help you avoid having buyers negotiate for extremely low prices.

  1. Be prepared to negotiate

The fact that a buyer will appreciate your honesty doesn’t mean that they won’t try to get a lower price. Be prepared to negotiate for the best possible price. While foundation problems will affect the value of your home, if you’ve invested in repairs that will last for a long time, you will have an upper hand and can get a good price.

Are you thinking of selling your home? Is it in need of foundation repair? Use the tips above to help you get a better price for your home.
