    EP29: Should You Renovate Before Selling?

    Thinking about renovating before you put your home on the market? Before you start spending money, it's important to know which improvements actually add value and which ones could leave you out of pocket. In this episode, Sarah Schultz shares a simple framework to help homeowners decide whether renovating before selling makes financial sense. You'll learn how your timeline, goals, and budget should influence your decisions, and why some of the most effective upgrades aren't always the most expensive. Whether you're planning to sell in the next few months or stay put for a few more years, this episode will help you make smarter renovation choices and avoid costly mistakes. In this episode:  The first question every homeowner should ask before renovating  Why your timeline matters when deciding where to spend money  The difference between renovating for appeal and renovating for lifestyle  Cost-effective improvements that can boost buyer interest  How to avoid overcapitalising before you sell  Small changes that can create a big impact on perceived value The right renovation can increase buyer appeal and strengthen your sale result.
