Time delays = wasted money. Do some research, don't over-researach, be clear about your goals and expectations, hire professionals - design and construction, thoughtfully plan the job, get out of the way and let them get the job done for you = best results.

I'd say do it, but do it low cost / highest quality. You can do a lot for little if you micro-manage the process and really shop for deals. I’d say do it, but do it low cost / highest quality.

And in a down market, there's a flight to quality. The best properties sell first and at better prices. So I'd be more inclined to do the renovation. You have to look at how the renovation would shorten your carry/sales cycle. If the renovation costs less than the assumed saved carry, then do the renovation, because you should come out ahead. What you're trying to do is make an educated decision. Get educated and make a decision and live with it. Deals that get done are turn key at the right price or discounted deals that require work at the right price. The middle waiits. Just my 2 cents. My 2 cents: Most buyers like turn key.
