Reason? I'm just curious if yours is the same as mine.
First of all unless you are selling by owner you won't be there to tell them. The Realtor shows the home while you leave or step outside. If they ask I would tell. I would never think to ask a homeowner that if they were there.
No. Someone suggested that if we tell potential buyers we renovated the house ourselves, the potential buyers will not value it as much. Technically, it wasn't "professionally" done.
I'm both a software and a structural engineer. I know for a fact that most people view things they don't understand like a black box. They don't want to understand it. As long as something is done "professionally", they will be fine with it. But if they physically see the person behind the black box, then there's no black box anymore and that thing doesn't have as much value simply because now there's a face behind it.
You may run into issues then with electrical and plumbing almost for sure. If you did anything structural then that, too.
It doesn't matter about your face, black boxes or the fact you're an engineer. You did unpermitted, uninspected work. You have a gas range, that's a plumber thing.

Who said we did it unpermited or uninspected? Everything we did was per spec.
