Should You Do Repairs Before Selling Your Home?

By John Wesley Walker II

We love serving our clients and making their goals possible! Our goal with every transaction is to build a relationship to make sure that our clients wants and needs are met. We pride ourselves on communication and quick action. Don't settle on average marketing and advertising when it comes to selling your property. Don't settle for an average agent that only sells 3-4 homes a year. You deserve an agent that knows the market and how to get the best results. Our team will do everything we can to exceed your expectations!

Are you on the fence about making repairs to your property before selling? Let’s face it—repairs and construction costs can be quite expensive and, depending on the amount of work being done, it can take weeks or even months to finish. While many buyers want move-in-ready homes, the truth is that you can still sell your house as-is. Repairs are not a requirement for selling, but they could be essential if you’re looking to get the highest price for your property.

To help you decide which is best for your financial goal and unique situation, I highly recommend consulting with a real estate professional like myself. We’ll evaluate your specific situation, noting that each home, neighborhood, and sale price goal is different. We can help you assess whether repairs would be worth the cost, or if selling as-is makes more sense for your property and financial goals. Additionally, we can connect you with reputable contractors who can complete the necessary work without breaking the bank.

Remember: When it comes to selling a home, one mistake can be quite costly, and you may end up spending more money than you need to. So, before diving into the process, call us at 318-794-6769 for a consultation. We look forward to hearing from you!
