Renovating Creates Better Resale Value

If you are planning any projects to update or renovate your home this spring, plan to keep records of the amount you spend. This information can be used to justify a higher listing or sales price of your home.

When listing a home, as a Realtor, I ask my clients if they have made any changes to the home in the last 5 years. Certainly, the best updates include.. finishing a lower level of a home. Adding a bathroom in a lower level. Updating kitchen countertops. Flooring upgrades.

You may not get all the money back from your renovation but it will help to get a higher price for your home when it comes to sell.

If you want advice on remodeling projects, contact your Sibcy Cline Realtor, Michelle Sloan.
