Focus keyword: ROI home improvements before selling
Most sellers over-invest in the wrong things. The goal is perceived value and confidence, not construction.
Usually high impact
- Paint, lighting, repairs, staging, curb appeal
Often low ROI (depending on scope)
- Long, expensive renovations without a clear buyer payoff
Ask for a short plan: 5 actions, 2 weeks, maximum impact.
