Should I Renovate My House Before I Sell It? [INFOGRAPHIC]

Some Highlights

• In today’s hyper-competitive market, some buyers are more willing to overlook some cosmetic or minor repair needs if it means being able to purchase a home in their price range – especially for homes in the more typical first-time buyer price range.
• With so few houses available for sale today, you may be able to skip the bigger renovations before you sell, allowing you to cash in on the current demand for your house.
• However this doesn’t mean that condition isn’t important to buyers, because it definitely still is.
• Buyers are busy, and with interest rates continuing to hover around historic lows, many buyers would rather pay an extra few thousand dollars and purchase a home that is move-in ready on day one vs. having to do the remodel and renovation work themselves after closing.
• If you are ready to move, let’s connect to determine your best next steps in this sellers’ market, so you can maximize the value and return on your house when you sell.
