This is what a real-life sinkhole house looks like….

March 17, 2018 By Sam Turgeon

TEACHABLE MOMENT: Not all sinkhole homes are swallowed by the earth like on TV. Instead, most face similar damage to this home. This is what a real-life sinkhole house looks like. Take a look at some of the damage and at least one telltale sign we look for to identify a sinkhole remediation. Anybody notice […]

Not All Conservation Is Created Equal!

September 15, 2015 By Brittany Miller 1 Comment

Agents always make sure to include that a property is located on conservation in a listing description because it is highly desirable to most buyers.  HOWEVER…not all listings are created equal, and many are open for your interpretation of exactly what a conservation lot means to you… This one, for example… Not exactly what the buyer […]

Did You Forget to Disclose Something…?

August 20, 2015 By Brittany Miller Leave a Comment

We never quite know what to expect when showing a home for the first time.  No matter how much research we do prior to scheduling, some things still surprise you. This home in Spring Hill, for example, had to following description in the listing: “Wow, What Potential!!…This home will require some TLC, but the possibilities are […]

We showed this house to a buyer recently.  From the outside, the house looked pretty decent for a bank owned property. Check out the damage we found inside!

DISCLAIMER: We are not Chinese Drywall experts.  If you suspect you have defective drywall, call an expert.  This post is for demonstration purposes only…. Defective drywall (aka Chinese drywall) is a problem here in Florida.  Before we go too deep on the subject, let me first say….. not every home has defective drywall so we […]

Surprise!!! (They forgot to mention something…)

September 7, 2014 By Sam Turgeon Leave a Comment

This is a home I showed recently in Wesley Chapel.   The listing never mentioned missing drywall, lack of a bathroom or a disassembled kitchen. Oooppssss!!!  I guess someone missed those minor details.  The roof was also missing shingles and crumbling. Needless to say, I don’t think this house can be considered “move in condition”!
