A water-damaged house is a property that has suffered damage from water intrusion, often resulting in structural issues due to flooding, leaks, or moisture problems. My grandfather’s house was heavily affected due to the Assam flood once so we need to know how to sell house with water damage. It was a tricky decision and we thought it won’t ever get sold. Our neighbour suggested us disclosing water damage when selling a house so that no one can blame us and things can be transparent and it actually worked. 

How to sell my water damaged house?

To sell a water-damaged house, focus on some aspects like:

  • Determine the extent of the water damage and its cause. It is best to get a professional inspection to provide a detailed report to the buyer.

  • Address the damage by fixing leaks, drying out affected areas, and remediating mould or mildew issues. Try to make sure all necessary repairs are made.

  • Keep detailed records of repairs, inspections, and any warranties for potential buyers' peace of mind.

  • Note down the repair cost estimates to determine your property's current value and set a competitive listing price.

  • Abide by local laws by disclosing all known water damage to potential buyers. Honesty is crucial to avoiding legal issues later.

  • Highlight the positives of your property, such as its location, features, and any improvements made after repairs.

  • Be prepared for potential buyers to negotiate the price based on the disclosed damage.

It was not hard for us to sell house with water damage and I hope it won’t be for you as well. So best of luck.
