Many home sellers are preparing to sell their home and find themselves asking the question of what renovations/staging can they do to set their home apart from the competition in the Harrisonburg market?
Let me help you make sense of all the extra "cents" you will be spending. First and foremost I do want to disclose that the market is what determines the value of your home and not your personal lifestyle and decorating tastes.
1. You want kitchen renovations to be at the top of the list when budgeting for renovations. Kitchen have historically been the leader to selling features of a property. Adding updated applicances, flooring and cabinetry will give it the face lift that will be sure to please.
2. Baths are also a winner. The more funtional and accessible the better. You are most likely to attract buyers because of this benefit but be sure they are free from leaks and mold issues.
3. Flooring, painting and energy savers will be the cherry on top.

As a Realtor I am constantly hearing the buzz about the housing market across our country. As I focus on the Harrisonburg/Rockingham County market I can see that the home owners are holding their chins high as they are not facing the devistating drops in home values or experiencing record breaking forclosure rates as the metropolitan areas in Virginia are facing.
Historically real estate in The Shenandoah Valley has not experienced the dramatic peaks and valley's in a fluciating market place, this hinges as a result of taking a more conservative approach to real estate investing. The beauty of the Harrisonburg/Rockingham County area is that it houses James Madison University, RMH, an Agriculture Community and many other venues allowing for pentiful opportunity and continuing to bring growth to our area. With a mix of opportunity and a legacy of smart investing, the Valley is truly a desirable locallity to invest in real estate.
