these cases, you can get away with lowering your price. Regardless, if you’re unable to update and repair, be honest, upfront, and flexible. A truly interested buyer will always work you. If you can update, highlight fixes you can handle. Then, note any fixes requiring professional work. Finally, note anything you wish you could fix. Start with the easiest items, and then work down the list. Remember the 80/20 rule, and focus your efforts on the updates and repairs that bring the greatest returns on your investment! POINTS TO REMEMBER: • Details can help homes sell faster. • Consider what in your home can be changed, added, improved, or fixed. • Changes don’t have to be time-consuming or expensive to be effective. • Use the 80/20 rule to determine which changes will increase your home’s value the most.
