If the standard in your area is to have a paved driveway and A/C, then your fiancee may be right and you may not gain anything in doing the repairs. You would simply be bringing you home up to the standard.

Start interviewing some experienced Realtors in town and get their take on this.You could get some free professional advice and find an excellent Realtor to list your home.

A: I agree with you. Potential buyers will look at these problems and assume that the property has other problems and that owners have not kept up the maintenance. This will either keep them from offering to buy or keep them from offering market value. Either way the potential for selling and getting a reasonable offer is much lower. A fresh coat of paint, cleaning out closets and keeping the house spotless will also make a difference. If you want more information go to a web site like: http://www.globalspan.net/staging.htm.
