Clients always ask us for advice about preparing their home for sale. In addition to the most common projects like painting, replacing light fixtures, and refinishing floors we are often asked about the efficacy of more substantial renovations. While we look at each house on a case by case basis with attention to the market conditions and competition, our general advice seems to mirror the state wide statistics compiled by the California Association of Realtors. If you are remodeling for a sale than the big question is will you be rewarded for the expense and energy. If you can do a good job without overspending than kitchens and bathrooms are worth remodeling, expanding or adding. Check out the conclusions below and don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like to discuss your particular situation in detail.
