Dave Ramsey is a financial advisor on the TV's Fox Business News and the Dave Ramsey Show (www.DaveRamsey.com). In 2009, he talked about Kevin Swift on his national radio show, recognizing him for his honesty in dealing with his clients. Dave read a customer's comment on air: “I just talked to Kevin Swift, a real estate ELP from Topeka, Kansas. He had some great advice and recommended a REALTOR® that would better suit my [half million dollar] price range. Anybody that gives up a possible $13,000 commission because he knows it is right for us is definitely an honest person. Thanks for everything you do, and for endorsing people like this.” Dave continued, “Well, thank you Jason, we try not to pick out endorsed local providers unless they are just really, really cool good people.”

Home Inspections >If It Is Broken Fix It
Most houses have a few "little" problems, like leaking faucets, a stove burner that won't light, or electrical outlets with too much "spark". These defects may not seem very important--unless your house is about to go on the market.
We rarely have difficulty getting sellers to agree to paint, replace worn carpets or plant a few flowers in the front yard. These kinds of repairs obviously increase the overall appeal of the property. However, if any of the major systems in your home need maintenance, it is also prudent to have the necessary repairs made. Have your furnace, central air-conditioning system, plumbing and wiring checked as part of your pre-marketing efforts. The best rule is--if it's broken, fix it!
The purchase agreement requires that a house be conveyed with all the systems in working order, and most buyers will bring in a home inspector to identify any potential problems. During the period of time between the "meeting of the minds" and the removal of the inspection contingencies, the buyers are the most vulnerable to an attack of buyer's remorse. This is also the time when anything that hasn't been repaired could become a major issue.
