Establish the condition
Ask for an inspection and written scope before deciding between repair and replacement. Keep photographs and invoices for discussions with prospective buyers and your real estate professional.
Compare the choices
Ask your real estate professional how roof condition may affect the particular listing. Compare repair, replacement, and negotiation options using actual bids. A national resale percentage cannot establish the value added to your home.
Test assumptions
The resale worksheet illustrates scenarios using assumptions. It does not predict an appraisal or sale price. Include selling costs and the timing of the work when comparing your options.
