What can I do to to my home to increase its value most?

I hear this question repeatedly when working with homeowners who are trying to sell their homes. It's a valid question - what home improvements really pay off when you sell your home? Well, the Cost versus Value Report for 2006 is out!

The report breaks down what returns homeowners can expect for remodels and additions. AND, some of the results may surprise you!! If you're thinking about making changes before you sell your home or what valuable improvements to make to your current home, read this and as always, let me know if you have any questions!

Location, Location, Location!

Trying to decide where to buy your next home? There are a lot of details to think about: freeway access, schools, distance from work and nightlife, to name only a few. The other major concern for most people is cost. How much does a condo or a home cost in a neighborhood? How does that compare to other neighborhoods you might be considering? What kind of equity appreciation has the neighborhood experienced?

The links below will show you a Statistical Market Comparison for Condos and Single-Family Homes in December 2005 and in December 2006.

Condominiums: December 2005 v. 2006

Residential Homes: December 2005 v. 2006
