🔨 To Upgrade or Not to Upgrade Before Selling Your Vacation Home?

This is one of the most emotionally loaded questions a seller can ask. “Should I put money into the home before listing it? Or will buyers just remodel it anyway?”

Here’s the truth 👇
In the vacation home market near Disney, buyers typically fall into two categories:

• Investors, looking for turn-key, clean, rentable homes.

• Owner-users, looking for move-in ready family getaways.

So, should you renovate? The answer: Not usually. But you should refresh.

✅ What’s worth doing:

• New bedspreads, pillows, or curtains 🎯

• A deep clean (especially grout, baseboards, vents, general maintenance) 🧼

• Neutral décor and removing "themed" overloads (less Mickey, more modern) 🎨

• Paint touch-ups and fresh mulch, make sure your front garden is looking great! first impressions count. 🌿

🚫 What to skip:

• New kitchen cabinets or expensive flooring

• Entire room makeovers

• New furniture sets

Buyers want clean, bright, and rentable,  not HGTV-level remodels. Save your money and let us guide you on where not to overspend.
