What do I do with this driveway

Hey guys - question for the group here.

I have a house that I'm rehabbing to flip that has some driveway issues.  Comps are in the 150k-170k range.

The driveway wraps around to a garage around the back of the house, and as you can see in the pictures the concrete is deteriorating towards the top of the driveway.  Also, it is in rough shape around the garage door, as well as some sizable gaps between concrete slabs.  

Looking for some thoughts on what to do here from some experienced flippers (since I am not).  I'm assuming I do not want to replace the whole driveway, but thoughts that have crossed my mind are: replacing a portion of the concrete towards the top of the driveway, trying to patch it, do nothing.  

Thanks in advance - always appreciate the feedback

There is a product called vinyl concrete patcher at Home Depot.  It is a high strength product and made for patching spots like yours.  It's about 15 dollars a bag and sets up quickly.  Pressure cleaning is a good idea also but I think I would invest in 5 gallons of paint and roll it out with a decent color and it would make the curb appeal much improved.  Good luck with the flip.
