How To Improve The Value Of Your Property!

As I list real estate in Springfield Missouri and surrounding areas, I usually go thru the home looking for small details that a potential buyer might view as a problem. Other than a homeowner's regular maintenance of the home, the one factor that really determines price is market conditions. Other factors are:

1. Condition of the home
2. Certain improvements
3. Location and neighborhood conditions

Market prices increase when it becomes a Seller's market - a strong economy and increase in home sales. Factors that improve the value of a home above the cost of improvements are:

1. Remodeling the bathrooms.
2. Adding a bathroom
3. A master suite that includes a full bath

Remember: Plan well and do quality work. Check out your contractor, prior to hiring them. A bad remodeling job could decrease the value of your home instead of increase.
