What would you do in this situation? I recently bought a house and after a month realized I HATE it. I overpaid by probably $30,000 and it needs about that much money in repairs (new furnace/water heater, roof, AC unit, and has no exhaust fan or window in the bathroom… laundry machines are janky too, wow I messed up bad)

I’ve deemed it unlivable for myself. I barely even stay there. I want to get rid of it asap and don’t care how much of a loss it takes, I really screwed up bad and I don’t want this financial damage to blow back on my family if I lose my job

Anyway… am I better off paying to get the issues fixed or list the house as-is when spring comes around and it has a better curb appeal

The inspection report looks ugly. But if I pay all the money to get things fixed I won’t have enough for closing costs

If I don’t fix anything well I overpaid like hell so I’ll have to list it way less than I bought it for and make up for the equity with cash

Idk what to do. Advice needed thanks

Talk to real estate agents with a good reputation who are familiar with your location. A good agent will take time to come and take a look and give you some answers to your questions hoping you will list with them should you decide to sell.
