deferred maintenance

---

Selling a home can be an involved process, especially if there are maintenance issues that haven’t been addressed over time. Sadly, these maintenance issues can often pile up, making the process of selling a home with deferred maintenance even more difficult. Deferred maintenance can look different for each property. At its core, it is when maintenance issues and repairs are pushed back, potentially causing the property to fall into disrepair and lose value. Deferred maintenance is usually done to avoid making large investments or because the homeowner doesn’t have the funds to complete these repairs. It can be one large project, a few small projects, or a combination of both. Buyers will always expect to know what maintenance projects will be required for the property before buying, and will often expect the seller to take care of these issues prior to the contract being finalized. An experienced buyer will typically complete an inspection of the property as a part of their offer terms because no one likes to be surprised by mold or broken appliances once they’ve moved in. Hiding any deferred maintenance is unethical and can lead to negative legal consequences down the line.
