What are value-added improvements?

Value-added improvements are upgrades that not only elevate a home’s appeal but also significantly boost its market value. Every home is unique, and we save you money where we can to maximize your return on investment. From stunning kitchen and bathroom renovations to energy-efficient features and beautiful curb appeal, these enhancements create a lasting impression on potential buyers. Thoughtful touches like fresh paint and updated flooring can truly make a home feel new, helping you sell faster and for top dollar.

Kitchen Added Improvements

In this kitchen, we focused on strategic updates rather than a full remodel, saving on costs while achieving impressive results. We refreshed the space by painting the walls and cabinets, adding the missing cabinet doors, and replacing the flooring throughout, extending into the laundry room for a seamless flow. We also upgraded the countertops to beautiful stone, added a backsplash that looks like old white subway tiles and replaced the outdated overhead lighting. The transformation was a hit with potential buyers, and the home sold quickly—well above the asking price!

Bedroom Added Improvements

The bedroom is another great example of value-boosting updates. We removed the shelving and curtains, then refreshed the space with a fresh coat of paint on the walls and ceiling. After staging the entire home, the room truly came to life. It was a smart, cost-effective way to make a big impact, saving both time and money while delivering incredible value.

Ketchen Remodel

Sometimes a full remodel is the right choice, and this kitchen is the perfect example. Every aspect was updated to bring the space together and truly make it shine. The transformation is stunning—pictures really do say a thousand words. What a remarkable difference, and the result is absolutely beautiful!

What sort of properties do you do?

We work with a wide range of properties, including condos, single-family homes, and multifamily units.

We specialize in properties that require both minor and major repairs — no rehab project is too big for us. We also handle distressed properties with liens, vacant homes, and those in probate or inherited.

Additionally, we are experienced with properties that have serious structural issues, like foundation problems, as well as homes burdened with high-interest or unfavorable mortgage terms.

Whether you’re downsizing, relocating, or just looking to sell and cash out to settle debts or explore new opportunities, we’re here to help.

Do you help with remodeling even if we don’t sell?

No, remodeling is not our focus. Our expertise lies in real estate transactions, where our priority is helping clients get the most value from their properties. We’re here to guide you through the process and ensure you achieve the best possible outcome in the market.

I want to flip homes too, can you help me?

Absolutely, we love working with investors! Feel free to reach out and share your plans with us. While we don't offer hard money loans or financing for projects, we do have a fantastic resource — REAL VITALIZE — that can help.

Can I sell AS-IS?

Of course, we will help you sell your home as-is without fixing it. We are here to help you sell your home no matter what. We're here to advise you about selling. The final decision is always yours.

Here are a couple of reasons why you might want to fix a house before selling it:

Higher Selling Price: Buyers are often willing to pay more for a home that’s move-in ready, as they don’t have to worry about repairs. By fixing up the property, you can increase its market value and potentially earn a higher return.
Faster Sale: Homes in good condition generally sell faster than those that need significant repairs. Buyers may hesitate to take on a fixer-upper, especially if they have limited time or resources to make repairs themselves.

Would you like some ideas on which specific repairs could offer the best return on investment?
