Three sale routes for a repair-heavy Pierce County house
Separate necessary repairs from resale upgrades: a worked comparison
Illustrative situation, not a customer case study. A buyer plans a full interior renovation, but some existing finishes may still function. The offer does not separate repair and preference.
| Decision | Evidence to gather | Next useful action |
|---|---|---|
| Condition baseline | Inspection findings and available photographs | Describe what is known and what still needs investigation. |
| Renovation assumption | Buyer scope and excluded items | Ask how optional upgrades affect the proposed price. |
| Transfer terms | Included supplies, appliances and possession | Record exactly what stays with the property. |
Use the comparison for your situation
For each row, write what you know, where the information came from, and what still needs confirmation. Assign the next action to a person or organization. An unknown item stays open; it is not a zero cost, an approval, or a commitment.
This preparation example does not establish a price, completion date, eligibility, or a professional finding. Use the scope and sources in this guide for the next conversation.
