REASONS TO SELL: PESKY UPKEEP
When Home Sweet Home Isn't Anymore
Overtime homes begin to show their age. Without the time, energy and money to keep up with necessary maintenance, homes can start to wear and tear and even become hazardous.
DYING HVAC
The average life of an HVAC unit is 15-20 years. Many homeowners decide to upgrade rather than spend thousands on costly repairs.
ROOF REPLACEMENT
Whether the roof is old or damaged from a storm, the cost to replace a roof sometimes does not make financial sense.
LEAKING PIPES
Plumbing seals degrade overtime, so sinks and drains will require resealing to reduce the chance of leaks and water damage.
LARGE YARD
If you have an HOA, you likely have to keep your yard tidy. As you age, or take on additional commitments you may not have the time for upkeep.

REASONS TO SELL: LIFE CHANGES
When it is Time to Move On
When life changes in a way that has nothing to do with money or your family, it might be time to sell your house. For some homeowners, the property is the only thing that ties them to a specific area. When you’re ready to cut ties and move on, Flash offers a broad array of solutions to sell your property.
Changing Relationships
When you move in with a partner or get married, it might require selling one or more properties. Similarly, a breakup or divorce is one of the most common reasons to sell your house. Whether one party buys out the other or you can’t afford a house on a single income, selling is an option. For some, a change in relationships means that a property holds too many bad memories. No matter your reason, we promise to treat you with respect and dignity.
New Job Opportunities
Work changes are another of the most common reasons to sell your house. When your work situation shifts, it sometimes requires you to pull up roots. Occasionally, this doesn’t even mean moving to another city or state. For some homeowners, there’s a cap on the type of commute they want to deal with. When a job exceeds that distance, which means heavy traffic, it’s time to move.
When You Want to Be Closer to (or Further from) Family
Oftentimes, people move to be closer to their relatives. This is especially true as parents age. Alternatively, the opposite is true as well. Other homeowners want to put distance between themselves and their families. No matter your reason, the team at Flash is here to help you with your property woes. Let us be your one-stop-shop for real estate solutions.
REASONS TO SELL: FINANCES
When It's All About the Money!
Money matters are another common reason to sell your house and move. Incomes change over time. Similarly, the values of homes change over time. Both of these factors impact your situation and how much you want to deal with.
STOP THE BLEED
Between mortgage payments, repairs, landscaping, HOA fees and general maintenance a home can end up costing much more than expected. If your home feels like a bottomless money pit it may be time to sell.
CASH IN YOUR EQUITY
Occasionally, homeowners or heirs just want to liquidate the asset. Selling your home allows you to tap into equity and home value appreciation so that the financial proceeds can be used elsewhere.
CASH OUT AN INHERITANCE
When parents or loved ones pass, successors may not have a need or resources to maintain the inherited property. Selling is a simple option to capture equity in the home without the headache of repairs or renting.

REASONS TO SELL: HOME CHANGES
Looking for a Goldilocks Home
TOO SMALL
A growing family is one of the most common reasons to sell your house. Generally, first-time home buyers outgrow the place they buy. Whether they have more kids or the kids themselves grow, they as a family outgrow the house. Additionally, more and more families live in multi-generational settings. This means they need more space to accommodate children who move back home or aging parents who need special care.
TOO BIG
Downsizing is one of the main reasons empty-nesters decide to sell. When the kids grow up and move out, sometimes the parents simply want a smaller place. Moreover, the older you get, the harder it is to maintain and move around a big house. Whether physical ailments make it hard to climb stairs or an apartment suits your lifestyle more, selling a house provides you with a great source of income to establish a nest egg for your future.
When Your Home No Longer Meets Your Needs
Maybe you thought you didn’t need that front yard and find the noise from the street too overwhelming these days. Perhaps that pool doesn’t see as much use as you thought it would and is a pain to maintain. Maybe that sunken living room is tripping you up too much. When you first buy a house, these small details seem like nothing. As you grow and change, so do your needs and wants. When you want to move on quickly, Flash is here to help you find a quick and easy solution.
neighborhood loses its charm
Neighborhoods grow and change over the years. When you first move in, you don’t know the development that awaits you. Sometimes, neighborhoods just become less charming or are no longer conveniently located for your current life. For instance, when a neighborhood starts to feel too busy, too commercial, too quiet, or too young, it might not suit your lifestyle anymore. You never have to feel “stuck” with your property.
want to upgrade
When you outgrow your home, it’s not always literal. In a figurative sense, you might outgrow your home as your career flourishes. Alternatively, when you inherit a home, you might want to sell it for a place that’s bigger or holds more value looking forward.
TIME FOR A NEW CHALLENGE
For some homeowners, they crave that challenge and love to fix up homes. Once the work is done, though, they grow restless and need a new challenge. There’s nothing better than selling and moving on to your next project. Additionally, priorities and tastes shift. When you no longer want to own a home and prefer to travel or pursue a hobby, it’s a great time to sell. In these cases, owning a home loses its appeal. That’s when selling is a great way to realize your next dream.
