Remodeling magazine has a Cost vs. Value edition available on line. Take a look. Most remodeling projects average a 50% return on investment in the FIRST FIVE YEARS! So I advise...do only obvious repairs and clean, clean clean. Make your home totally pared down and clutter free. The only real positive investment is s new front lawn...using seed,not sod. A 300% ROI. Any painting, remodeling of bathrooms or kitchens guarantees that either the buyer has your EXACT taste and is willing to pay you for your skills and design...or they are going to pay less elsewhere where they can remodel to their own taste. I advise you to do the same..buy cheaply, remodel for the now and future and sell when appropriate. Or build new to suit exactly what you want.

I stage houses. Deep cleaning up the whole house and getting rid of clutter (put away almost everything in boxes except for a few decorative items, and leave the boxes in your garage) is the best way to go. Depersonalize the space by placing generic decorative items --no personal photos. Sell all of your old furniture before an open house. Empty rooms is better than looking at old furniture in them. Put live or silk plants in every room. If you have money to spend, you can change out or buy new bedding, framed art and pillows. Your goal is to appeal as many people as possible, and make them dream about your house. If there is no budget, borrow nice accessories and furniture from your friends and family. I hope this helps.

I thought I would put in new appliances, change out flooring, also the a/c and heating unit is as old as the house. They are all original to the home.

Curb appeal. And kitchen and baths sell a home.
