Raleigh NC Real Estate To Sell or Not To Sell
June 12th, 2007
Are you trying to make a decision about selling your home? Are you considering remodeling instead? You are not alone. Many homeowners are trying to make a decision about investing their time and money into remodeling or to just sell and purchase another home. How do you choose?
Remodeling is a great idea if your home is in a location where you want to stay and you can live with the disarray a remodeling project inevitably brings to your home, even in the areas that are not being remodeled. However, you need to choose remodeling projects that will bring you the biggest return on your investment. The five top updates that usually bring you the biggest return are the kitchen, the bathroom, the family room, the master suite, and attic bedrooms. Your projects must be well planned and useful to the population in general to see a good return.
When you are beginning to plan consider visiting other homes in your neighborhood and see what their homes have to offer in updates. Check out new neighborhoods and see the most popular amenities being included by the builders. Contact your realtor and ask them about the return possibilities for your proposed project. Then you might be ready to make a decision whether to move forward. However, if you decide selling is the correct route for you, contact Michelle Edwards for a free market analysis and find out what your home is worth in the current market.
