Our realtor came over last week to look through our house and help us set priorities for what we need to do with it and what we can leave alone. We're not planning to put it on the market until probably 2 years from now, but I wanted to enjoy any improvements we'll have to make rather than simply paying for them for the next owner!
We have to do three things for sure:
1. Fix the small leak in the renter's bathroom upstairs, which unfortunately includes pretty much redoing his whole bathroom, including floor, tub, and tub surround.
2. Professionally refinish all our hardwood floors. I am really excited about this one! Our goal to do it financially is in January.
3. Cheaply repair our crumbling concrete front steps and retaining wall.
Our realtor strongly recommends that we demolish our unusable garage and put in a new two-car garage. He thinks we'd more than recoup the money we put into it. We'd like to do it if we have the money upfront, but we'll see on this one. It's a big project, and not that important to us.
I was kind of disappointed that he didn't recommend retiling our brown/tan bathroom floor tiles or putting in a nice new bathtub and sink that would actually look clean when I cleaned them. Oh, well. Isaac was relieved.
