Solution for Vacant Houses

Jul. 5, 2008
Categorized in: Prepare Your Home to Sell

        There has been a lot of debate on home staging.  Is it worth it to a homeowner to pay a professional stagger to come in and make a home show ready?  Or can a homeowner just clear all their clutter and remove personal items to make a home in ready condition for buyers to come and look? 
     What about vacant homes?  With so many homeowners going into financial distress and either losing their home to foreclosure or just walking away.  What about the homeowner that just plain has to move, and with the market as it is can not sell their home fast enough?  So the home becomes vacant and vacant homes are largely unappealing.  Most buyers would rather see some furniture and a clean home for visualization purposes, than an empty somewhat dirty home. Vacant homes are being broken into and vandalized. 
    There was a crew of guys going around Las Vegas subdivisions with a van.  The van looked very much like a service vehicle, so the neighbors did not think too much about it. Well they were stealing air conditioners units and breaking in and taking all the appliances. Other homes are just getting broken into by homeless people and a lot of damage is being done to the interior of the homes.
     Well I have run across a company that may just have the solution for people that
have to move and leave their home vacant while it is trying to be sold.  The company is called  Property Solutions of Las Vegas, LLC.    ( they have branches in a lot of area's of the U.S. not just Las Vegas)
      I was very excited when I ran across this company because it is at
NO COST  to the homeowner or the Realtor® that is marketing the property.
   Property Solutions of Las Vegas,LLC   has teamed up with CareTakers of America who has been in business since 1985.  They have people who live in the home with their furniture and keep the home in show ready condition. The homeowner still makes their mortgage payments but there is no cost to have this service provided.  Think of the peace of mind the homeowner who needs to leave the area will have knowing their home is being taken care of.  The caretaker even pays the utilities. 
    Read for yourself all the materials provided on both websites and let me know what you think.  As far as I can tell it is a win/win situation for all concerned.
