Unfinished Renovations Push Sellers in Savage, Eagan, and Elko New Market to Take Cash Offers and Walk Away

Minnesota homeowners are offloading half-renovated properties instead of sinking more time and money into projects that won’t pay off

(Isstories Editorial):- Minneapolis, Minnesota Oct 19, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – Across Scott and Dakota County, more homeowners are hitting pause on mid-renovation homes–and choosing to sell them instead. In Savage, Eagan, and Elko New Market, stalled remodeling projects, rising labor costs, and delayed materials are prompting frustrated owners to accept fast, as-is offers from local cash buyers.

“Sellers start with good intentions, but it quickly spirals,” said a spokesperson for Sell House Fast MN. “They run out of time, the budget doubles, or they just don’t want to live through another month of drywall dust. That’s when they call us.”

Why Half-Finished Homes Are Hard to Sell the Traditional Way

Homes with torn-out bathrooms, exposed subflooring, or half-installed kitchens rarely pass inspection. In a buyer’s market, those issues can tank offers–or attract none at all.

“We buy houses Eagan where the seller got halfway through a basement remodel and ran out of steam,” said the rep. “Now they’re facing winter, a second mortgage, or a life change–and they want out.”

Top Reasons Sellers Walk Away From Renovations:

  • DIY remodels that went over budget

  • Contractors who abandoned the job

  • Health issues or relocation mid-project

  • Divorce or inheritance disputes

  • Realizing the upgrades won’t increase resale value

In Elko New Market and Savage, older homes with unfinished additions or partially gutted rooms are sitting unsold, draining equity and stressing out sellers.
