🐾🏡 HARLEY’S HOME TIPS #35 🚨 WAIT… WHO PAYS TO MAINTAIN THAT PRIVATE ROAD?

Imagine finding your dream country property…

🌲 Beautiful acreage

🏡 A gorgeous home

🏍️ Room for your motorcycles, RV, and toys

🐾 Plenty of space for Harley to run!

Sounds perfect, doesn’t it?

But here’s something many buyers never think to ask…

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT PRIVATE ROAD?

That peaceful country driveway could come with some BIG financial responsibilities!

Before you buy, make sure you understand:

🚗 ROAD MAINTENANCE: Who pays for grading, gravel, potholes, and major repairs?

📄 MAINTENANCE AGREEMENTS: Is there a written agreement? How are costs divided between neighbors?

🌧️ YEAR-ROUND ACCESS: What happens during heavy rain, snow, flooding, or a road washout?

🚒 EMERGENCY ACCESS: Can fire trucks and emergency vehicles safely reach your home?

💰 UNEXPECTED EXPENSES: Could you be responsible for thousands of dollars in future road repairs?

⚠️ LEGAL ACCESS: Do you have documented rights to use the road?

🐶 HARLEY’S ADVICE:

“Don’t just fall in love with the house. Make sure you understand the road that gets you there!”

❤️ THE DREAM HOME IS ONLY PART OF THE STORY.

A great Realtor doesn’t just help you find a beautiful property. They help you ask the questions that could protect you from expensive surprises.

Whether you’re looking for acreage, a rural retreat, or your forever home in Southwest Washington or Northwest Oregon, Harley and I are ready to help!
