Repairs
Fix this. Skip that.
Most homeowners over-spend before listing. This is the honest version.
Fix it
- Leaking faucets and running toilets
- Burned-out bulbs and broken switches
- Sticky doors and loose handles
- Caulk gaps in bathrooms and kitchen
- Touch-up paint in scuffed high-traffic rooms
Skip it (usually)
- Full kitchen or bath remodels
- New roof unless actively leaking
- Replacing functional HVAC
- Custom finishes — buyers want neutral
- Landscaping overhauls
