Will a newly paved driveway add value to a home?

I am thinking of paving the driveway of the house I am selling. Currently there is a gravel driveway. I am looking at a $1700 investment to pave it. I am not sure I will get that back out of the house.

It should increase the value if the driveway paving is not common in your area. However, the market increased so much over the last couple of years and has now fallen, the paving may be necessary to sell not to profit. Consult with an local re agent of your choice whom you may wish to list with for their advice....jessicarussellestates.com

ask your agent. i would say yes..

Pave it neatly and ask local professioanal realtors before you do. Were you maybe thinking of a carport, instead?

I guess it will add value because your home will look good and if ever you sell it in the future, the buyer will be at least impressed on your effort, Also it will be a selling point on the driveway part because they don't have to spend money and time to construct it....

But asked your agent about it before making decision.
