Im selling my house, is it worth spending money on repairing the basement?
Just because you may have lived with the problem for years, doesnt mean that someone else wants to. Surveys have proven that 92% of the people shopping for a home will not be interested in a home with a wet basement. If a problem exists you will pay for it one way or another. If nothing is done a potential buyer will want a large discount to deal with the problem. In most cases the discount will be more than the price of having the problem corrected. If the water problem is eliminated the property will be appraised higher and there will be an opportunity to recuperate your investment on the sale.
