Are your asphalt shingles in
good condition?
The average homeowner who is planning to sell their home is probably
asking themselves, “Should I repair my roof shingles?” It is a reasonable
question because every situation is different.
Many homeowners find that their rooftop has been in serious disrepair
for several years, but it always ranked very low on the list of home
improvement projects. If we are completely honest, repairing your roof is never
going to be one of the most fun ways to spend your money. Roof repair and
maintenance easily becomes one a major negotiating point in a home sale. If
sellers do not fix their roof and it needs it, buyers will expect to pay much less.
Realistically, there are only a few renovation projects that can earn every
dollar back when the home sells. However, you can be sure that prospective
buyers will require deep discounts when it comes to roof repair and
replacement.
Should you decide to sell as-is, make sure that the condition of your
roof will not block a successful close from traditional lenders. Minor
maintenance will rarely factor in, but when a roof is nearing the end of its
life span or needs significant repairs, lender will commonly make the roof replacement a condition of approval for the loan.
