Home in good repair before listing?

     If you own a home in the suburbs for less than $500,000 you will likely benefit from a strong "seller's market" shortage of inventory in the lower price ranges.
     Do not make the mistake of thinking you don't have to update that house or condominium. Paint it, stage it, and price it well.
     It still has to be priced right, in good repair, and be updated with the items that today's buyers are looking for. Like fresh neutral wall paint, hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, granite, or quartz counter tops, and updated bathrooms.
