Should you Renovate your home to sell it?
Sometimes to stand out from the competition‚ many sellers feel obligated to renovate prior to listing their homes. However‚ depending on the area‚ real estate professionals may want to put the brakes on their clients’ desire to undertake renovation projects.
There’s no doubt that home improvement increases property values, but renovating can be expensive—and there’s no guarantee your clients will recoup all of the costs at resale. With that in mind, is the expense of remodeling worth it?

Knowing the market is crucial. In areas with many investors‚ upgrades may not be necessary since buyers will renovate themselves as landlords or flippers.
Since projects can be costly‚ a more affordable choice may be a virtual staging of potential renovation options.
