Value Add Summary

High Level Scope of Work:

 

  • Deep cosmetics throughout
  • Minor layout change
  • This location was an amazing, centrally located parcel, great for a walker’s lifestyle.  
  • Providing a turn-key, modern condo with ample living and outdoor space was poised to sell faster than the traditional 3-decker condos in high-supply.

 

Value Add Highlights:

 

  • We became the first condo in the complex to add a retractable awning and to pour a large patio pad.  All of the HOA owners wanted to mirror this once we sold.
  • Dressed up the garage for better curb appeal at the open house.
  • All of the units in this complex had tiny kitchens, we blew open two walls and doubled the kitchen size, which certainly helped get $50k+ over the next highest selling unit in this complex.
