[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ask your realtor or a friend with good taste. In certain neighborhoods to get top dollar you need to do it up (but don't renovate first; that's a big mistake) - move out and get more out than you think. Others are so hot it doesn't matter[/quote] don’t renovate but paint if it needs it[/quote] Meh. I know that’s the conventional wisdom but I fail to see how fresh paint matters.[/quote] If you have lived there for 5+ years, the house will looked lived in with the paint, even more so if you have kids. So spending a bit to paint and freshen it up can help buyers view it better. Just like if you don't stage it, rent a storage space and move 50% of things out. People want to envision living there, not think there isn't enough space/that it is crowded. So fix up things that are obviously broken and paint if it's needed, clean the carpets and wash the damn windows. Little things make it much more appealing [/quote]
