Should You Fix Up Your Home Before Selling—Or Sell It As-Is?
If you’re thinking about selling your home, you’ve probably asked yourself:
“Should I renovate first—or just sell it as-is?”
It’s a common question, and the truth is, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. The right decision depends on your timeline, your budget, and most importantly—what the numbers say.
That’s why I offer something called a Side-by-Side Net Sheet. It’s a clear, custom breakdown of what you could expect to walk away with in different selling scenarios—so you can make the best decision for your situation.
What You’ll Get
I’ll run the numbers based on your specific property and local market data. The Net Sheet compares three options:
-
Selling your home as-is, with no updates
-
Doing a few light cosmetic improvements
-
A full renovation with higher market value potential
Each option shows estimated costs, potential sale price, and your net proceeds after everything is factored in.
This isn’t a guess. It’s a side-by-side snapshot of real possibilities—based on your goals and your home.
Why This Matters
Whether you’re selling an inherited home, a rental, or the house you’ve lived in for years, this decision can have a big impact on your bottom line.
This process helps answer the questions most sellers have, like:
-
Will I make more money if I fix things up?
-
Can I sell as-is and still get a fair price?
-
Is it worth investing in updates before I sell?
-
What’s my true net after everything is paid out?
Instead of guessing—or relying on general advice online—you’ll have personalized, transparent numbers to work from.
If You Choose to Make Repairs, I Can Help With That Too
If you decide updates make sense, I have a network of trusted contractors and service providers. In many cases, we can even arrange payment for those services to happen at closing, so you’re not paying out of pocket.
