Before you list your home, youll want to make sure your home is as marketable as possible. You may want to consider some repairs that could help add value to your property, such as fixing any water damage or foundation concerns. Even small cosmetic changes can have a big impact on the eyes of a buyer, such as replacing outdated light fixtures or giving your home a fresh coat of paint. Your agent can work with you to help identify updates that may help increase the value of your home.
