A homeowner recently asked me whether she should make certain upgrades to her home before she put it on the market.  While I believe some upgrades help the home show better, and increase the home’s appeal to a greater number of buyers — such as removing popcorn ceilings, applying a fresh coat of paint — many upgrades aren’t necessary to sell a home for top dollar.  Below are some repairs that can get you a greater return on investment.
