The housing market remains competitive, but not to the point where home shoppers will overlook some kinds of flaws in a home. Exterior issues, like bad siding or loose bricks, and weatherproofing issues are among the biggest issues that home buyers said would make them pass on a home, according to a survey from HomeAdvisor of more than 1,700 homeowners about their biggest deal breakers.
Buyers say they are still likely to pursue a home if the home is in a fire zone or has lead paint, radon, or yard or landscaping issues, the study says.
Home buyers are showing a willingness to remodel when needed. The most important factors to them when they buy: price, home size, and an updated kitchen, the study finds.
