🏡 Smart Seller Series — Day 3
Repairs That Matter Most to Coastal Bend Buyers
December is one of the best months to tackle the repairs that actually move the needle for a strong January or February listing — especially in a market where buyers, lenders, and insurers look closely at risk.
In the Coastal Bend, buyers pay closest attention to roof age + windstorm certification (WPI-8), HVAC age and maintenance history, impact-rated or windstorm-approved windows, foundation clarity and drainage, updated electrical and plumbing, simple kitchen/bath improvements, and safety essentials like GFCIs and smoke detectors. 🔧🏠
🌬️ Bonus December advantage:
Salt air accelerates exterior wear. Touching up peeling trim, rust spots, and loose siding helps show buyers the home is well cared for in our coastal climate.
📄 Documentation matters just as much as the repair itself.
Missing WPI-8s, outdated permits, or unclear maintenance records can delay underwriting or increase insurance quotes — especially in older homes.
💡 Power move:
A quick 3-point pre-listing check (roof, HVAC, foundation) in December can help prevent surprise repair requests once you're under contract.
✨ High-ROI December prep = a cleaner, smoother January launch.
Skip the costly cosmetic overhauls and focus on what builds buyer confidence, improves insurability, and supports a stronger appraisal.
📲 Want help prioritizing what to repair (and what to skip) before the new year? I can walk the home with you — and help you avoid overspending while focusing on repairs that truly build value and buyer confidence.
