The Gist:

Carol Morhart of Handyman Connections puts herself in the shoes of buyers who can potentially be sensitive to anything that may be broken.

• There is an endless list of minor repair work that is needed to be done, but sellers are hesitant to ask for help because they don’t seem like big issues. These things shouldn’t be ignored! These can be things such as driveway repairs, dog scratches on the door, front door adjustments, etc., and can often be ignored by the homeowners living there. However, for new buyers, these can be decision-making factors.

• Handyman Connections comes and looks through your home for no cost to see if there should be any repairs done. With 30 independent contractors working closely with them, they can check and address nearly anything.

• Not every single thing needs to be fixed, but the annoying things like water dripping noises, leaking humidifiers on the side of a furnace, rust, mineral stains, damp furniture, etc., should be addressed.

Larger projects, like kitchen remodels, full basement development, etc., may be out of the scope of Handyman Connection, but there are things they can do to update the space and save you money.

• Quick changes can be done such as changing doorknobs or changing the cupboard/cabinet doors that will give you cost-effective results while selling your house. These easy fixes can relieve your anxiety as well as the anxiety of buyers.

Handyman Connections make sure that the customer service experience is excellent. They ensure that the contractors call you back, show up on time, address even minor problems, and deliver the services promised.

• This is why that have sustained in this highly competitive real estate business for this long.

• The 30 contractors that work closely with Handyman Connection have varying levels of experience, but most have at least 20 years of experience in their trades.

• They have a whole gambit of residential trade professionals such as licensed partners, master electricians, carpenters, etc.

• Carol recruits the professionals, so she is comfortable sending them to your home. The vetting process is long and intensive, and it is ensured that they have the right skillsets and communication abilities to deal with the homeowners so that they understand the technical parts of the projects.

• Renovations include a lot of problem-solving, because most of the time nothing is straight-forward. Changing parts and repairs can change the outcome in different ways.

Bottom Line: The houses that sell more often tend to have more layers of renovations and repairs. If you decide you want to make a change, it would be best to consult the experts.
