Spring is in the air, and so is the time to consider if there is a needed repair or replacement of the roof on your home.
Every Realtor, that wants to be the best serving Colorado, is typically confronted with the topic of “The Roof”, “What should I do?” a question coming from clients, friends and relatives.
And, if you’re planning on buying or selling property in this real estate market, a key line item will be ‘The Roof’ under the Inspection condition in the process to buy or sell property.
The topic of roofing is not exactly the sexy topic one wants to consider having to spending money. However, if a roof repair or a roof replacement is not addressed in a prompt and efficient manner, even bigger costs of repair to your home is on the near horizon.
A roof repair or replacement may have been forced upon you due to a severe weather activity. Time to call in the Insurance Company? Perhaps, but consider:
– The CLUE REPORT
– When it comes to contacting your Carrier, consider first speaking to an advocate when dealing with Insurance Company and a roof repair or replacement. Carrier may not want to provide full replacement or cut dollars on repair. And, do you want to work with an Adjuster without an advocate present?
