How can I protect my home sale timeline during renovations?

Protect your home sale timeline by locking your renovation scope early, making prompt decisions, and hiring professionals for complex tasks. Focus DIY efforts on quick cosmetic projects under forty hours that enhance curb appeal and listing photos. Obtain three comparable bids for any contractor work and allocate ten to fifteen percent contingency for unexpected delays. Plan staging and photography strategically to showcase move-in ready spaces, helping sell your home efficiently without compromising quality.
