Selling

How to Make Opportunities

This is just what we do…..

A few months back, I get a call from a 93-year old widow telling me, “It’s time.” She needs to downsize from the 3-story house that she has cherished for over 46+ years. You can imagine the stories she told me as I  walked the property (inside and out), giving my two cents on what improvements could/should be done to yield a quick sale as well as sell for the most money.

After hearing me out, she got started on an EXTENSIVE 30-day project remodel. And I mean extensive. The house had some good bones though it needed to be updated to appeal to today’s buyer. The first thing to go was the red shag carpet 😊. All new hardwoods went in with a brand-new kitchen. New appliances, new granite countertops, new lighting features! I think she had second thoughts on moving when it was all said and done. LOL

I am happy to announce the home SOLD within days, and the remodel yielded an additional $30K than anticipated.

Now, not all homes that go on the market need an extensive remodel though you need the right advice on what to do (or not to do) to sell in today’s market. Give me a call or text at 317-625-0655 and let me help!
