A friend was asking me the other day what she could do to boost her home's value and where it makes sense to spend the money on renovations.  Here's a great video from Consumer Reports.  It gives some tips on what you can do to improve your homes value and help you get a higher sales price.

Don't worry about taking professional photos of your home.  That is a service I provide as your REALTOR.  If you'd like a professional market valuation of your home, contact me before you start getting your home ready for sale.  I can help show you what you can do to get the most bang for your buck in terms of improvements that will increase your sales price.
