Weekly Pop July 2, 2025: Don’t Spend $15K Just to Make $5K

by Tania Gardère MacLeod

Don’t Spend $15K Just to Make $5K 😬
If you’ve ever stood in your kitchen and thought, “Maybe we should redo this before we sell…” — this one’s for you.
(Shoot, I have this conversation with myself even when I’m just hosting a dinner party. Like, “Should I finally redo that backsplash before everyone comes over?” I kid. But you get the point.)
 
Here’s what I see all the time:
🏡 Homeowners pouring thousands into upgrades thinking they’ll get every penny back…only to find out the market doesn’t exactly agree.
 
✨ Newsflash: A brand new roof or HVAC doesn’t magically equal $20K more in a buyer’s eyes. That’s just called maintenance, friend.
 
🙈 Or they spend $20K on a bathroom reno…and buyers still want to gut it.
🙈 Or install fancy new floors when we could’ve simply refinished what was there.
🙈 Or — the worst — blow the budget on updates buyers don’t even care about, and it doesn’t move the needle one bit on value.
 
Here’s the smarter play you might not realize is an option:
✅ Let me walk through your house before you spend a dime.
No pressure. No awkward “Sooo…ready to sell?” vibes.
Just a real strategy conversation about what your home actually needs (and what it absolutely doesn’t).
 
Think of it as a “just in case” walkthrough.
Sometimes a few thoughtful tweaks make all the difference.
Other times? Doing nothing at all is the best call.
 
If you’re thinking about selling soon, next year, or someday, let’s make sure every dollar you invest actually pays you back (instead of turning into fancy new tile…that buyers still rip out).
