Sell As-Is or Fix It Up? Let’s Weigh Your Options

October 11, 2024

When selling your home, a common question is whether to list it as-is or make repairs. If you’re aiming for a quick sale, selling as-is can be the easiest route, though it might mean accepting a lower offer. Making repairs, on the other hand, can increase your home’s value, but it doesn’t always guarantee a higher price or faster sale.

In a competitive market, buyers might be more forgiving of small issues, but in a slower market, they may expect a home that’s move-in ready. Even small updates like fresh paint or sprucing up your landscaping can boost curb appeal without a large investment.

If you’re on the fence, one of our agents can help you assess what makes the most sense for your home and situation. Let’s connect and figure out the best approach for your sale!

Who needs a five year plan when you could have a home like this? 👇 I can’t get enough of this single family home in the desirable Bethany neighborhood in Portland. Think natural light, quality craftsmanship, open layout, dream kitchen and backyard views on the deck. Every detail makes it the kind of space that just feels right. If this one’s calling your name, comment or DM me.

I’ve talked clients out of buying or selling before…and I’d do it again. Because a home should move you toward your goals, not away from them. Before making a move, let’s look at the big picture: your priorities, the market, and what truly makes sense long-term.

When people move to Lake Oswego, they often think it’s all about the beautiful homes, top schools, and proximity to Portland. But what makes people stay? Morning walks by the lake.
Cafe’s where they know your name.
A downtown that still feels small-town.
Easy access to trails, parks, and water.
Neighbors who look out for each other.
Weekends that unfold without a plan.
That perfect balance of calm and convenience.
A community that feels connected, grounded, and proud to call this place home. If you’re thinking about calling Lake Oswego home, this is what it’s really like to live here... not just visit. Comment “GUIDE” below and I’ll send you my Lake Oswego City Guide with all my local favorites ↓ 👋 I’m Heather @robbinsrealtygroup — your Lake Oswego real estate agent sharing what makes this city one of the best places to live in Oregon.
