Homes that are in mint and good condition typically sell for more money. But investing in improving your home’s condition is not always the smart play. You may end up spending more than you’ll gain in added value. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Northville and Novi neighborhoods and the first thing I say to my sellers is, ‘Please don’t do anything to your house until I see it.’ That’s because a lot of sellers overspend on fixing and upgrading things that don’t make a difference to the home’s value. My job is to save sellers as much money as possible by telling them which fixes and upgrades are unnecessary. Consulting an agent before spending any money on repairs or upgrades is vital because every home, neighborhood, and market is different. What’s an absolute must-do in one neighborhood could be a waste of money in another neighborhood. While you may think you know what buyers want, experienced agents are immersed in the real estate market daily. They know what fixes buyers are insisting on, what upgrades they’ll pay more for, and which projects are sure to be a waste of time and money.
