Hi Neil:
Recently our dishwasher broke. I tried to get it fixed but apparently it is so old that they don't make parts for it anymore. So instead I have been doing the dishes by hand, since my husband and I probably won't be here much longer. Anyways I was thinking of buying a new one, but if I do it will be just a basic, inexpensive one since my husband and I will have to buy appliances for our new house as well and we can't afford to buy top of the line appliances. Our stove is also really old too, and I was thinking of replacing it too even though it works just fine. So here is my question: do you think it would make a difference in the sale of a house like ours? Some people are picky and like top of the line appliances and so I don't want to buy new ones if people are just going to replace them anyways with ones to their liking. It would be a waste of money. What is your opinion on this?
Thanks CW

Hi CW,
I would go ahead and buy a basic model on sale for the best price possible; Home Depot, Sears, whatever. It should not make a difference in the final sale price of your home. If you buy a stove you may be able to get a really good value on a 1 or 2 year old used stove that looks very modern but without the cost of new. Most people looking in the price range of your town home will appreciate decent quality working appliances and not worry too much about getting top of the line.
Hope this helps. Neil
