If you want to spend some money on a house you probably will sell, you might think about spending it on adding popular upgrades and/or updates that you can enjoy while you live there. (Yeah, I know enjoying a paid off bond is the top choice for some owners but when it comes to selling, what a buyer sees usually takes top priority.)

And on the more practical side, a new roof can go further for a buyer than a paid bond. With something like a new roof, the seller has gone through the hassle and the noise so the buyer does not have to.

I think there are many people in TV who could pay off the bond if they so chose but they don't want to--for all those various reasons previously stated in every bond thread ever here on TOTV.
