Oceanside Real Estate Agent Tip #3

When you add a room or install a pool or do some other type of home improvement your home will not increase in value the amount you paid for the improvement. For instance, if you spend $25,000 to add a bedroom and bathroom. You may add about $10,000 to the value of your home.

Oceanside Real Estate Agent TipĀ #4

You’ll spend money maintaining your home … a new roof here, a new heater there. You won’t increase your home’s value with the home maintenance, but your homes value will decrease if you don’t keep up the regular maintenance. In fact, without regular maintenance, you may even lose money because of the discounts you’ll have to give the family that buys your Oceanside home for sale.
