Required Maintenance Over Seven Decades

Chris & Jamie Buy Houses

Joyce had lived a lifetime in her house—an incredible 72 years. Before the Spizzirris could rejoice over possibly having landed a lucrative listing, they needed to acknowledge that living in the same place over such a long stretch of time could present a few bumps in the road selling the property. Joyce told them that she hadn’t remodeled, renovated, or made any major repairs in decades. Furthermore, even though Joyce sounded like a very nice woman who cared immensely about her home, Gladys and Carla doubted a 96-year-old nonagenarian could keep up with all the maintenance required to make sure the house stays in excellent condition. They were worried that not only might the Jane Street house need a lot of repairs, or even a huge-scale restoration, they could only imagine how cluttered the house could be. A lot of older people tend to hoard large quantities of objects, unwilling to discard any “treasures” even when they start covering the living areas of the house and causing even more damage. The Spizzirris were concerned Joyce’s home might be completely dilapidated.
