No Closet in Bedroom?

[RealtorMichelle]

2nd Bedroom has no closet. Getting ready to list an upscale penthouse condo whereas the 2nd bedroom has been converted to 3 walls of attached designer shelving with Built-in Desk is where closet used to be. Will this lessen or increase the value of the condo? Thanks so much, Michelle.

Can't say for certain but I'd bet that some of the new built-in storage space could be converted to a closet for a relatively small investment if the new owner wanted. I'd have to say no effect on value but honestly, I've never appraised a penthouse condo. Others may disagree.

As a real estate agent, you can list it as 2 or 3 bedrooms. Make comments if 3 bedroom (technically a den) that the 3rd bedroom is used a bedroom.

there is no rule or law that a bedroom must have a closet. People can future out their own solution the storage built ins looks chap and take up space in that room- though someone might like it and whoever does not can remove it

If public records show 2 bedrooms and you list as 3 bedrooms (good marketing), agent has to disclose why she/he indicated 3 bedrooms in MLS especially for liability purposes.

Just follow the public record. If it shows 3 bedrooms, just say 3rd bedroom was converted into office / den.

3 bedrooms

If it shows 3 bedrooms,

Did I miss something?

My bad. I thought she was talking about 3 bedroom.
Then call it a 2 bedroom and indicate the den has been converted into a bedroom usage.
For marketing purposes, 2 bedroom sounds much better than 1 bedroom.
But for those familiar with the condo building, they know its a 1 bedroom floorplan so you can't fool the smarter real estate agents or appraisers.

IMHO. In a high end upscale penthouse condo. I doubt the typical buyer would care.
