Now that interest rates have stopped rising i am thinking of selling an IP unit (loan has been paid off). I am going to use the proceeds to put towards a new PPOR purchase.
I can either sell with the current tenant (lease period has expired), as is or give them notice and spend some money to freshen the place up before selling. (Dulwich hill, Sydney)
The unit is in good condition, but a new owner occupier would probably put in new carpet, and fresh paint. Bathroom is original, kitchen was renovated/tiled a couple of years ago.
I was thinking, i could take some time off work (couple of weeks), repaint and put in some floating floors, new light fixtures, and blinds, then sell.
Do you think its worth my time do this or sell as is??
If it takes three months to sell, that would be three months without rent, plus money spent on fixing up the place.
Do you think the better selling price would more than make up for the cost?
Also how hard is it to sell a place with a tenant?
