Don’t Be Afraid to Buy That Spooky Home
Old homes in need of lots of repairs can often be spooky—but that doesn’t mean they’re haunted. A spooky home may only need work, not an exorcism. If you’re open to it, you could end up with more space and features at a bargain price.
Older homes needing work tend to sell at an attractive discount. Even if you feel like you’ve walked into a time capsule where you don’t belong, the age and condition of the home matter little if you renovate it in a financially feasible way.
The other option is demolition and building a new home. Talk to your lender and see if the price of the home and the cost of renovations or building new are affordable.
Just don’t over-improve for the neighborhood. Your benchmark will be nearby, similar homes that have either renovated or rebuilt to modern homebuyers’ standards.
So, don’t be spooked by a dark, spooky home. It may only need a new electrical panel, new lights, new windows, and some tree-trimming.
Don’t let a spooky home scare you away. A Forever AgentSM can help you spot hidden potential, avoid costly mistakes, and find a home that fits your vision and budget.

Publisher's Letter
Dawa Sherpa, Publisher
The holiday season is upon us. A time to express appreciation for the people, experiences, and opportunities that enrich our lives. As we take a moment to give thanks and celebrate with our families and our communities – let’s not forget the uniquely valuable small, local businesses that are at the heart of our communities.
In today’s fast-paced world, shopping has never been more convenient with online giants and big-box stores offering rapid delivery and low prices. But, unlike mass retailers, small businesses and local shop owners offer personal relationships, leading to better service and customized recommendations. Whether it’s a handmade candle or boutique clothing, these businesses offer a personal touch that can’t be replicated.
The holiday season is a crucial time for small businesses. Events like “Small Business Saturday” remind us to support the shops that keep our communities vibrant. But it’s important to continue that support throughout the year to ensure these businesses thrive.
This holiday season, when shopping for a gift, a service, or just a little treat for yourself, consider visiting our local businesses first. Every purchase makes a meaningful difference, helping build a stronger, more connected community for everyone.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Dawa
