Before you list your home for sale, you need to do some maintenance, fixing broken things and making it look more presentable to potential buyers. A few minor remodels can even help boost your resale value. Choosing the wrong projects, though, can hurt rather than help the sale process and may cost more than they're worth.

- DON'T: Remodel the Kitchen. It may seem like a brand-new kitchen would be a selling point for a home, but it can often be the opposite.
