Showcase Homes of Florida

Home Owner Information
 

WHAT’S IN IT FOR THE HOMEOWNER?

Surveys show emphatically that nicely furnished and decorated homes sell much faster and for a significantly higher sales price than vacant properties. Showcase homes and our carefully selected Home Managers provide a "model home atmosphere" to help you market your North Florida Home.

There are a variety of additional benefits to Homeowners in the Showcase program including:

Reduced Expenses -
Our Home Managers assume responsibility for all utilities. Lawn care, heating and air, electric, gas, and pool maintenance costs are eliminated for the homeowner.

Continuation of Insurance –
Many insurance companies will not insure an unoccupied home. Others simply charge higher rates due to potential vandalism, undiscovered plumbing issues, etc. With a Showcase Home Manager in place you will be assured of continuous and reasonable coverage thru your current insurance provider. 

Security / Peace of Mind –
An occupied home is much less likely to be vandalized than a vacant property. Also, leaks, bugs, termites and many other potential issues will be discovered and handled immediately when you have a Home Manager in place.

Premium Sales Offers – 
Vacant homes typically receive lower offers as buyers expect a bargain, sometimes thinking that the owner may be desperate. As your realtor will confirm, it is very hard for potential buyers to visualize an empty house as their home and it always looks smaller when it’s empty.
