Evaluating a Whiffletree Home Before You Buy
Relevant comparable sales provide important evidence, but useful property analysis should go beyond selecting the closest transactions on a map.
Gary and Linda help buyers consider size, condition, renovations, floor plan, lot position, mature landscaping, privacy, pool, outdoor living and potential improvement costs.
Price Per Square Foot Is Only One Data Point
Price per square foot can provide useful context, but it cannot fully account for upgrades, condition, floor plan, lot characteristics, privacy or outdoor amenities.
A Whiffletree home should be evaluated as an individual property rather than reduced to one mathematical average.
Negotiating Inspection Findings and Managing the Transaction
Depending on inspection findings and contractual circumstances, buyers may consider selected repair requests, specialist evaluations, concessions when appropriate or accepting certain conditions.
The appropriate strategy depends on the individual property, findings, contractual position and buyer priorities.
Buyer Representation Continues Through Closing
Gary and Linda remain involved as buyers navigate inspections, repair negotiations, financing, appraisal, title, HOA documentation, contractual deadlines, final walkthrough, closing and possession.
