Why update my home??

Here in Boise seller's have asked me why they should update their home. "What difference will it make in the final sell price?" they ask. I tell them "Investors flip houses for a reason." Doesn't it make sense that if people can actually make a living selling an updated house that you should sell your home for tons more money if you take a little time to update it?

Of course it does! I would personally rather take out a 3 or 4 thousand dollar credit card loan and pay the interest on that loan while it sits on the market than I would sell my home with out current updates. Did you know that a home will sell anywhere from 10% to 40% more if you update it? Of course, that depends on what you do and the neighborhood it is in.

Seller's please do not EVER sell your home with out updating it.
