If there are renovations you want to do to your house before you sell it, think twice. There are jobs that we have seen done by homeowners that on the surface seem like a no brainer, but then when they are finished were probably better off not done at all. Any projects that have the potential to look homemade and unprofessional not only won’t bring you more money in the sale of your house, but you will lose more than if it was done right. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we have seen Buyers who view a house with a sloppy paint job, moldings that don’t match up, flooring that wasn’t laid correctly or patios that are loose and wavy and soon they start deducting big bucks from the asking price. They are keeping in the back of their minds how much it will cost to undo the amateur renovations that were done. Plus if you have tackled projects that required permits that were not obtained, you could face penalties when trying to obtain a certificate of occupancy from your municipality.

Be smart and don’t allow good intentions and hard work to lower your bottom line price on your house instead of adding to it.
