What repairs are worth doing before selling my house?

Repairs earn their cost back before selling when they remove a reason for a buyer's inspector to flag the home, such as a failing roof, an outdated electrical panel or visible water damage, rather than cosmetic upgrades a buyer would likely change anyway. Fresh paint and basic landscaping tend to help more than a full kitchen remodel on a fast timeline.
