Sales Price: $700,000
Under contract in 4 Days!
Sold for $11,000 OVER list price!

Plan: We put together a plan that included refreshing some targeted areas as well as making the floor plan more functional. In lieu of showing the home with an obsolete living room, we repurposed this formal room to a functional study by closing in an opening from the family room. The space was finished off with elegant window treatments and staged with furniture that created a warm visually attractive appearance. We also updated the kitchen by adding a new backsplash and painting the cabinets.

9104 Kingsmead Lane
Sales Price: $968,000
Under Contract in 13 days!
Goal: This home was previously listed for 147 days with another firm, with a final list price of $940,000. The home needed significant updates but also had a challenging location next to a busy road. Additionally, a garage addition and created a view of a brick wall in the kitchen which was a big deterrent to sale After not receiving any offers, Sellers wanted a new strategy to get their home sold.
Plan: Our team focused on making key areas more appealing with updates and better design. To detract from the view of the brick wall in the kitchen, we removed a cabinet and added a window that provided a great view of the backyard pool. It also served to brighten up the kitchen significantly. The cost of that change was under $5,000 but had a huge impact on the appeal of the kitchen. To save money, we recommended against painting the cabinets and instead added a plaster application to the hood to make it more of a focal point and bring more of an updated look to the space. We also added a new backsplash and lighting.
Result: We relisted the home and had it under contract in 13 days. The home sold for $968,000.

Plan: We recommended strategic updates to the flooring, lighting and wall finishes (paint plus wallpaper removal and overall drywall repair). We also asked the Seller to get a pre-inspection done so as to understand the full scope of repairs needed and to prioritize those repairs.
