What is a Certified Pre-Owned Home?

CPO or Certified Pre-Owned Properties follow a Three Stage Process: Appraisal I Inspection I Home Warranty

1

The Marketing Appraisal Imagine the peace of mind you are offering the buyer, purchasing a home that has an appraisal in place.

Having an appraisal in hand is a powerful negotiation tool to keep the contract price as close to the list price as possible.

2

The Inspection

The average inspection turns up 15+ items that need repair.

At this point, you have to renegotiate the terms of your offer. Most buyer’s agents will request a licensed contractor to make any repairs. OR they will choose to terminate the contract. OR they will choose to ask for an average of $1,500 - $2,500 as a credit for the buyer to make the repairs. Our sellers spend an average of $500 fixing items upfront, or they are handy and make minor repairs themselves.

3

Home Warranty

Home ownership can feel like a stretch—particularly in the first year.

A home warranty, or a home protection plan, is a one-year service contract that covers the repair or replacement of home system components and appliances that typically break down over time.

A Home Warranty can: - Protect your budget from unexpected, covered breakdowns.

- Give access to a network of qualified contractors.

- Make requesting service easy either online or over the phone-24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The Home Warranty generally covers the seller for many items that fail during the life of the listing.

Marketing Appraisal Can helps to secure a sale that is close to listing price.

Home Inspection Can reduce the cost of post-inspection repairs.

Home Warranty

Can protect your budget and provide an easy resource for qualified contractors.

Testimonials

Working with Donna & Team New Bern was the best possible experience.

Donna is the definition of positivity. Her sales outline was clear and concise.

If I said, “I don’t think we can do that,” she said, “Sure you can!” and got it done. Our estate included five family members. Donna took time to talk with any of them who wanted to talk.

Team New Bern carried out each and every detail of the plan. The result was a sale.

Even in a flat real estate market, Team New Bern moves ahead with a plan. They are a “get it done” team. So many thanks. - Anne Tilley, Seller

After having made the decision to leave New Bern after over 20 years, the next step was to “ready” my house for the market and to decide upon a realtor.

My choice couldn’t have been a better one.

The process I had been dreading turned out to be a wonderful relationship.

It was indeed a pleasure to work with Dona and her staff. They listened and I listened, resulting in the sale of a home I’ve loved for many years. Thanks to them, my transition was indeed a painless one. I shall always feel indebted to them for making it possible for me to continue on the next phase of my life and for being both professional and caring during the entire process.

- Barbara Phillips, Seller

Donna and Team New Bern were amazing to work with! Every person on the team is an expert and they made the process of selling our home easy!

From initial contact to closing, they always responded quickly and professionally. We trusted all their advice for pricing and what needed to be fixed and got an offer near full price only 10 days after hitting the market!

I can’t imagine having sold our home with anyone else!

This could have been an immensely stressful time, but working with Donna Harmatuk and her team was easy and they took care of everything!

- Jose Gutierrez, Seller

Donna Harmatuk and the other members of the Team worked very diligently for us. We were always kept informed of current trends and any other details. Thanks for all your help getting our lots sold!

- Graham & Ashley Simpson, Buyers & Sellers
