If you are putting your house on the market, there is a Property Disclosure form to fill out. You may think, what a nuisance; maybe I can skip over some of the questions. Beware – this will come back to bite you! Withholding pertinent information about the property has serious consequences. A thorough disclosure will protect the buyer as well as you. Most buyers appreciate knowing as much as possible about a house before buying it. They can live with it not being perfect as long as they know about the issues up front and have had a chance to investigate and digest them.
Lawsuits can happen when information is withheld. Not only should you disclose current issues, but it also may be a good idea to disclose any past problems that have been repaired or areas that require routine maintenance. A word of caution on past repairs – don’t guarantee that the problems are fixed. This implies that they will never come back. Rather, be specific on how they were handled. Also, don’t guess when filling out the disclosure; if you don’t know, then indicate that it is unknown. On the other hand, don’t just fill in unknown because it is easy and avoids problems. A thorough and properly filled out disclosure may help keep you out of court! If you’d like to work with a REALTOR® who is on top of all the details, then give me a call. 603-526-4116, www.donnaforest.com.

Residential home sales in New Hampshire saw a year-over-year increase for the 20th consecutive month in July, outpacing July 2012 by 23 percent, while the price of those homes was up by 11 percent for the month as well. There were 1,637 residential sales in July, compared with 1,331 from a year ago, marking the most sales in a single month since August 2005. With a median price of $230,000 (compared with $207,900 in July 2012), it added up to a 37 percent increase in overall July sales volume, meaning the total dollars exchanged in those transactions. “I read somewhere that it won’t be long before the ‘housing recovery’ is simply referred to as ‘housing,’” said 2013 New Hampshire Association of REALTORS® President, Bill Weidacher. “We no longer have to qualify the recovery as a hypothetical or as something that we’re forecasting or dreaming about. It’s here.” Year to date numbers in 2013 continue to be on the upswing as well. For the first seven months combined, compared to 2012, closed sales are up 12 percent, median price is ahead by 10 percent, and sales volume saw a 17 percent increase. The average days on the market for sold homes, meanwhile, dropped by 18 percent in July, from 107 days in 2012 to 88 days this year. The year to date comparison is a 13 percent decline, from an average of 118 days on the market over the first seven months of 2012 to 103 in 2013. Pending sales, a forward-looking sales indicator, increased by 23 percent in July and has risen 12 percent year to date. And months’ supply, which measures the number of months it would take to sell of the current inventory of homes at the current pace of sales, dropped from nearly 15 months in July 2012 to 11 in July 2013. “We’ve been in a buyers’ market for so long, some of those relatively new to the business are seeing things lean back toward the sellers for the first time,” Weidacher said. “There’s certainly more balance in the market than we’ve seen in years.” Condominium sales in New Hampshire, meanwhile, trended similarly in July, ahead by 25 percent in closed sales, 14 percent in median price, and 35 percent in sales volume. Year to date, those numbers are 15 percent, 7 percent and 22 percent, respectively. Locally, nine of the 10 New Hampshire counties saw residential unit sales increases in July, with Sullivan County the only exception, and nine of 10 witnessed July median price increases as well, with only Coos seeing a decline.
