Don’t Let Deferred Maintenance Decrease Your Bottom Line

Life is busy and as the old saying goes, “If it isn’t broke, don’t fix it.” However, for many property owners, deferred maintenance and home improvement projects that have piled up really end up slashing their bottom line when they go to sell.

From start to finish, Josh and the story house team was available day and night for questions and setting up home visits or appointments. I wouldn’t change any behavior or suggest an area of improvement based on my experience. Josh would respond to questions and concerns well after normal business hours as well as on weekends. While in the contract period, there were multiple times I would ask him to address something with the seller or just general questions in the evenings or on weekends and he was always quick to reply or attempt to get my answer from the seller.

Personally, I have never liked dealing with people in sales. I tend to be very wary and on my guard. But from the first meeting with Josh, I knew that it was a blessing to find him. Josh made the entire process smooth and easy for us. From the personal attention with quick responses to our many phone calls and multiple questions to walking us through the long scary process of being first time home buyers and making sure we stayed well informed. I very rarely write reviews, but this experience was above and beyond because in this day and age, finding someone who is actually looking out for your best interests and is not just out for his/ own gain is a rare and precious thing. I would recommend Josh to all my family and friends.
