Home buyers are showing a preference for homes that are move-in ready, rather than those that require renovations. This trend is leading buyers to pay more for homes that don't need work.

As a result, homes that need repairs or updates are being passed over by potential buyers. The shift in buyer behavior is contributing to a decline in the popularity of fixer-upper homes.

Further information on this trend is available from the Fact Check Team at KTXS, including details on why the fixer-upper craze is fading in the US.
