If you’re buying a home for the first time, you may or may not be prepared for what can be described as a journey. Meaning, a lot of first-time homebuyers are looking for that “perfect home”. During this process, buyers may learn a lot about themselves in terms of what they want and what they don’t want in their first home.
Some buyers are looking for a fixer-upper, while others are looking for a brand-new home that has never been lived in before. There are also others that are looking for a home that is “move-in-ready.” Since so many people fall into the latter category, we discuss what it means for a home to be move-in-ready, and what you should expect in such a home.
For a home to be “move-in-ready,” there shouldn’t be anything that needs to be fixed urgently. In other words, there shouldn’t be any issues that need to be taken care of before the buyer can occupy the home.
Is there a serious pest or electrical problem? Is the plumbing out of commission? Is the roof so bad, you don’t feel comfortable if there’s a rainstorm? If a house is advertised as move-in-ready and you see any of these red flags, it’s not move-in-ready.
Move-in-ready is a very broad term. A home does not need to be brand-new or fully remodeled to classify as move-in-ready, and a lot of people have a misunderstanding about that. So, the green-colored countertops or the barnyard painting behind the oven are giving you nightmares, it doesn’t mean the home is not move-in-ready.
