One thing to keep in mind is the difference between repairs and renovations. Repairs typically refer to items that buyers expect to be in good condition before they purchase a home. For example, if an HVAC unit isn’t in working condition, or there are tiles missing for the floor, a buyer may ask for a credit to cover the costs of the repairs.
Renovations, on the other hand, are improvements made to an item in the home. Good examples of renovations are things like upgraded granite countertops or new stainless steel appliances.
